domesticating symbols looks at the entropic dissolution of symbolic structures we are
experiencing today and explores various approaches towards learning to create code.
Photovoltaics and its capacity to capture energy by coding instead of exploitation of resources
and of integrating in additional or surplus quantities of energy into the ecosphere of the
planet's natural balance is the central focus of this publication. Energythereby also
encompasses the genuinely abstract format of electricity which makes it possible to convert
any form of energy into any other form. This is the second volume of the Applied Virtuality
book series based on the Metalithicum Conferences by the Laboratory of Applied Virtuality at
the Chair for Computer Aided Architectural Design Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH)
Zurich.
