"Searching as a way of life" [the quote]

"In the network economy, nine times out of ten, your fiercest competitor will not come from your own field. In turbulent times, when little is locked in, it is imperative to search as wide as possible for places where innovations erupt. Innovations increasingly interfect from other domains. A ceaseless blanket search--wide, easy, and shallow--is the only way you can be sure you will not be surprised. Don't read trade magazines in your field; scan the magazines of other trades. Talk to anthropologists, poets, historians, artists, philosophers. Hire some 17-year-olds to work in your office. Make a habit to visit a web site at random. Tune in to talk radio. Take a class in scenario making. You'll have a much better chance at recognizing the emergence of something important if you treat these remote venues as neighbors."

Digital Morphogenesis

Digital Morphogenesis - Evolving architecture through computation
"Hello, my name is Daniel Davis and I am PhD student at the Spatial Information Architecture Laboratory (SIAL). I use this blog to share some of the ideas I come across while studying. Most of the time I will wrap my own critique around these ideas in an attempt to elevate the discussion of digital architecture beyond the coffee table."
