ARE YOU A MODEL?

This book considers architectural models not as stable objects but as a question: What is a
model  really? And where in the design process does it assume its powers or perform its tasks?
Thirty essays respond to nine pointed questions  discovering surprising affinities and
interweaving observations from diverse disciplinary  geographical  and scholarly perspectives 
all framed by an introductory essay and a dialog between historian Annabel Wharton and artist
Thomas Demand.   Are You a Model?   approaches models as phenomena and architectural tools
without seeking to determine conclusive answers. Compiled by a group of architectural and art
historians  historians of science  software engineers  architects  and curators  it views
models as an epistemologically diverse practice rather than objects sorted by periods  genres 
or materials.           With contributions by Giulia Amoresano  Yana Boeva  Giulia Boller
