Contextual science fiction

This session gives examples of how new technology, new modes of production or new ways of understanding a landscape can, in the future, lead to an architecture with a sensitive and flexible approach to context. Morphologies that are not generated by rigid Cartesian geometries of measure and order may, in this way, even become ‘ordinary'.
