The cycle of lectures aims to explore what environments we live in today. From the great vectors determining space on a global scale, to the developments of unprecedented local characteristics, life forms are affected by transformations that untie and re-link their ecologies with unpredictable results. The process of adaptation to these changing environments thus becomes a fundamental question for the architectural project, even in the redefinition of itself: how does architectural design affect the production of our environment today? What are the innovative approaches to look at? What are the design strategies for new paradigms of living? What are the proposals for moving in spaces inhabited by artificial agents and whose boundaries with the digital are becoming increasingly blurred?
