Techformance—Technology, Platform, Performance
Generative design algorithms, AI-driven sustainability models, robotic fabrication techniques, and more are gradually transforming the landscape of architecture and urban design. The rise of artificial intelligence and advanced technologies in architecture and urbanism challenges us to rethink the role of the profession, the effectiveness of these tools, and the nature of the design process as an artistic endeavor. As machines increasingly co-author designs—imagining, generating, and optimizing forms—we must ask: what does it mean to be an architect, designer or urban planner in this new paradigm?
This exhibition serves as a platform where technology and performance converge to explore these questions. Through live demonstrations and interactive installations, the audience will engage into the dialogue between human creativity and machine intelligence.
Exhibition Period: 28.11.2025 – 24.1.2026
Venue: Oi! Warehouse 1 & 2, Oi! Lawn and Oi! Deck
Free Admission
