Devices of Design, a collaboration between the Canadian
Centre for Architecture (CCA) and the Daniel
Langlois Foundation for Art, Science, and Technology, was
initiated in response to the increasingly widespread use of digital media
and software technologies in architectural design as well as in the domain
of construction. A colloquium and a subsequent roundtable discussion will
address both the consequences that this shift implies for contemporary
architectural theory and practice, and the urgent need for better understanding
of the archival and conservation issues that such new media and technology
raise for research institutions worldwide.
