In this article, Lars discussed the relationship between digital mathinary code and hand craft. The machine has been taught to translate the design intention into a craft, which is a more universal language. With the development of technology, computing design allows the architects to have more rigorous and complex control upon the details, yet the accuracy of translation predetermined the quality of the craft. The architects' design would be influenced by the operation of computer and machine. The computational design works would attempt to have the trait of being code-dependent, this would make the translation easier and more accurate.
The machine has been operated repeatedly in the quite similar methods, an excellent instance talked about in this article is the hand writing of as. Human being's arms have very complex tectonics. The system based on joints, on elements, do not allow for imperfection and breaks, but continuous systems do. The point is to make machine do things differently.
The equal relationship between craft and matter has always been challenged by the designer, who tries to control and impose form on matter but, even acting in good faith and in possession of the right techniques, cannot fully inhabit matter and must assume the position of the mold. If we view the situation in this way, our question becomes how to combine mold and craft in design, at a point when design technique and technology are converging.
