Transdisciplinary view of digital architecture

Abstract

This ongoing research outlines a historic perspective of transdisciplinary digital architecture through the work of key personalities by establishing links between them. It is important to highlight the transdisciplinarity role as a way of thinking, teaching and as a research methodology with impact on architectural practice. But considering the literature review, the relation between digital architecture and transdisciplinarity it is not usually considered relevant. After several decades, since the origins of transdisciplinary digital architecture, it is relevant to start writing about its history.In the digital era, another important idea is to use new sets of tools to deal with historiography. Those tools can give new data interpretation, based on new research sources and new ways of analyzing and visualizing collected data.This research aims to contribute to a historic perspective of ransdisciplinary digital architecture with a new methodology that uses relational databases with spatial and temporal data.
