Is it possible to generate architecture from strings, two-dimensional graphs that, while being projected in time would generate architecture?
In A Brief History of Time, Hawking said: A particle occupies a point in space at each instant of time, so its history can be represented by a line in space-time. A rope, by contrast, occupies a space at each instant of time. Therefore, their history in space-time is a two-dimensional surface called the road of the World .
In this reading reflections had its morphogenesis the house presented here: the formal constant arise from the creation of strings structuring an outer casing.
This operation would be succeeded by the insertion of program boxes circumscribed to the strings.
The product of these operations, should be planted in an artificial topography, a key territory in serialistic key would articulate a dense network of landscape as a counterpoint to the transparency of the building...
