Thoughts after reading "Potential Performative Effects"

"Technology is not efficiency-oriented practice measured by quantitives but a qualitative set of relations that interact with cultural stimuli"
The article talks about how the technology invented which is like a proliferation of new effects and developed based on feeback loop. More important, it has an actulized organizational process. The anlogy of evolution of the computer used here is pretty successful, which many lineages such as contributions of scholars, philosophers, visionaries, engineers, mathematicians, etc, developed together through time.
Same as architecture, the development of building technology and methods of producing drawings and representations of the building are largely depended on the social and economic situation, as well as the relevant breakthrough technologies from other industry.
The application of new computer technology not only can bring the more flexible and intriguing space but also the simlutations of construction sequence and logistics for architecture industry.
