What has been from the beginning the unifying media for all things, namely “space,” has undergone great transformations. This is due to the expansion and deepening of communications technologies and the imaginative and perceptual innovations that have accompanied such technologies. During this program, the discussants focused upon the dematerialization of architecture, a notion of “spatiality” that could incorporate informational space, the future state of the environment, and the possibilities involved in designing these kinds of spaces.
Speakers: IIJIMA Yoichi (architecture critic), KIKUCHI Makoto (architect), and HIKOSAKA Yutaka
