Terra I
Terra I is an installation designed by Mirco Becker for Bordel! a hairdresser salon in Berlin. Like a landscape the object forms a new ground. It resembles qualities found in low-polygon artwork, where a whole is made up of parts

von Mirco Becker Das Original dieses Textes wurde in Modulor 02/2010 veröffentlicht. Die Entwicklung algorithmischen Denkens kann seit dem Altertum an der Geschichte der Nachrichtenverschlüsselung betrachtet werden. Dass diese Kulturtechnik jedoch erheblich vielseitiger ist, als Schriften zu kodieren, zeigt die fortschreitende Digitalisierung zahlreicher Lebensbereiche –
