John May

"Within the short span of a few decades, the digital control surface has supplanted nearly all other representational techniques within the design fields (including industrial, architectural, landscape-architectural, and urban design). In doing so it has rather silently erased an older mode of representation--which was essentially geometrical and mechanical--substituting in its place an entirely different visual logic, rooted in an ongoing coalescing between statistical reasoning and electrical engineering. Although the most obvious effects of this substitution are aesthetic, its reverberations are in fact extensively epistemological and even (increasingly) ontological, undercutting and refashioning certain long-standing conceptual divisions among technology, subjectivity, perception, and political agency."

John J. May, 2011
