Network Fever
From Fuller, McLuhan and Doxiadis, they all try to make new theory in “Network”. The author mentions that “Doxiadis draws the discipline of architecture in the same way as he draws the city.
1.Doxiadis said “Organism”, how he presented in real world at that time?
2.The article mentions many times about “Ekistic” that they created. Archigram also make instant city in that time. I can relate some case in instant city, however, I’m confuse about “Ekistic”. Is any example can illustrate the “Ekistic” in real world?
The Rise of Network Culture
The article mentions that “networked connection replaces abstraction. Information is less the product of discrete processing units than the outcome of the networked relations between them….”, it also mentions that “network culture succeeds postmodernism.”
1. I can not figure out why network succeeds postmodernism, is any example?
