Description
Bracket 2: Goes Soft explores the role of responsive and indeterminate systems in design. In an era marked by crises, soft systems have gained traction as a counterpoint to permanent ones. This book presents examples of soft systems across various professions and disciplines, examining how the notion of going soft can be iterated. The book is structured around six themes: sensing/feedback, interfacing/enveloping, subverting/hijacking, formatting/distributing, contingency/resilience, and diffusing/generating. These examples showcase how soft systems can be applied to address complex issues in architecture, environment, and digital culture. Bracket 2: Goes Soft is part of the Bracket book series, which highlights emerging critical issues at the intersection of architecture, environment, and digital culture.
