Lecturer Matthew Allen recently reviewed the exhibition Archaeology of the Digital: Complexity and Convention (pictured above) for the Journal of the Society of Architectural Historians. Curated by Greg Lynn at the Canadian Centre for Architecture (CCA), the exhibition presented 25 projects "for which digital materials are integral to an understanding of the design process.”

“My guess is that exhibitions like Archaeology of the Digital will help incorporate new aesthetic categories surrounding digital production into the larger scheme of architectural values,” writes Allen. "Archaeology of the Digital represented a type of show that will undoubtedly become more common."

Allen also contributed to the recently launched exhibition architecture, architectural & Architecture at the Architecture and Design Museum in Los Angeles (pictured above). At the centre of Allen's contribution is an example of cutting-edge computational aesthetics in the form of a screencapture of a digital model of Preston Scott Cohen's Tel Aviv Museum of Art. Curated by Anthony Morey and Ryan Tyler Martinez, the exhibition is a collection of “100 Architects, 100 Objects, 100 Texts, 100 Images,” and will be on display until July 2, 2017.
