 D 2 A: Digital to Analog by Dennis L. Dollens, Assembling a framework derived from Borges, T. S. Eliot, and Louis Sullivan, D2A reflects on current architectural works as they illuminate the past and present, demonstrating digital architecture's position in a historical continuum. D2A surveys analog and digital conceptualization, visualization, and production as they relate to architecture and design -- the generation and transference of design ideas, the recognition of computer-aided visualization (CAV), the placeness of digital space, and the developing relationship of computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) to architecture. Presenting Gehry and the historic Catalan architect, Jujol, in a fictional exchange, D2A next observes Miralles, Calatrava, Vasulka, and Ito as pioneers across the turn of the 20th into the 21st century as well as across the digital divide. D2A then concentrates on architects who formulate digital strategies based on differing qualities and capabilities of software, thereby illustrating conditions from which digital architecture emerges. Looking to current research -- including a view to e-space and online worlds as they emerge electronically in game space and physically in places such as Las Vegas, D2A focuses on architecture and research that bypasses traditional means of conceptualization and production to visualize and produce projects electronically, as seeded by technology, science, expropriated history, and new as well as established theory. D2A closes with a series of 11 case studies contemplating architects Duncan Brown, Greg Lynn, Objectile, and Marcos Novak as creators whose partnerships with electronics seek to designate e-space as a site of new architecture, a new workplace for full productionand/or new philosophical understanding of place, building, visualization, and design.
Digital-to-analog converter - In electronics, a digital-to-analog converter (DAC or D-to-A) is a device for converting a digital (usually binary) code to an analog signal (current, voltage or charges). Digital-to-Analog Converters are the interface between the abstract digital world and the analog real life. Analog-to-digital converter - An analog-to-digital converter (abbreviated ADC, A/D, or A to D) is a device that converts continuous signals to discrete digital numbers. The reverse operation is performed by a digital-to-analog converter (DAC). Secure Digital Music Initiative - SDMI (Secure Digital Music Initiative) was a forum formed in late 1998, comprised of more than 200 IT, consumer electronics, security technology, ISP and recording industry companies with the purpose of developing technology specifications that protect the playing, storing and distributing of digital music. Analog sound vs. digital sound - Since the first publication of digital sound recordings listeners have disagreed over the respective sound quality of analog and digital sound.
