Exploring the evolution of architectural practice, Mario Carpo examines how digital technologies have transformed the creation of identical copies, marking a significant shift from historical methods of design and construction. He contrasts the foundational concepts of architectural design from the Renaissance, exemplified by Alberti, with contemporary practices that embrace variability over standardization. Carpo critiques the implications of this shift, proposing a new architectural agenda that embraces digital craftsmanship and collaborative authorship in an era defined by variability and participation.
