Ideal Architecture is Utopia – Selected Publication in “Deutsches Architektenblatt” 10/2020.

Ideal Architecture is Utopia

It never leaves the space of image and text. Only there is it alive and present for a fleeting moment. “Ou-topos”, the non-place, becomes an open projection surface for our dreams and wishes, not to be localized, neither in time nor in space. The utopian ideal stands for a distant, unreachable country and at the same time for a distant, not yet reached future and an irretrievable past. The ideal exists somewhere in between – between text and image, between viewer and content. The utopian ideal is simultaneously never and nowhere.

Interdisciplinary Integration – Transportation and Applied Interactive Technologies

This contribution focusses on intersectoral and smart crosslinking in developing interactive software applications for transportation. Therefore the “APITs networking matrix” was designed. This matrix enables for strategic planning, advantageous cross-industry synergies and technological advantages in applied software development.
