This is the second volume of two of the Proceedings of the 38th eCAADe held as an online
event from 16-17 September 2020 at the Institute of Architecture Technische Universität
Berlin in Germany. The two volumes together contain the 144 accepted papers. All papers are
also available digitally at CumInCAD (Cumulative Index of Computer Aided Architectural Design)
- http: papers.cumincad.orgHumans and technology today form an inseparable link that has
profound implications for Earth's ecosystems - leading to the debate for a new era: the
Anthropologic. In recent years the transition from analog to digital architecture has
materialized through increasing availability of novel software and new methods in digital
architecture fabrication - tooling. The cognitive and digital turn implies ubiquitous computing
artificial intelligence augmented reality and material intelligence but to mention a few. The
resulting design strategies overwhelm our discipline of architecture encouraging a re-thinking
of architecture the architect's role and responsibility as well as architectural education.
The development of digital technologies is compounding the need to develop ethics for this new
technological state - shifting computer architecture from its focus on technology to a focus on
humans.
