Paper and presentation at the Future Ground conference in Melbourne, November 2004.

Time based design lead to investigations into networks of relations and systems oriented perspectives. It is still a good way of learning systems thinking.


Below are some articles from earlier work on Dynamic Generative Diagrams as means to work with open designs as a responce to urban complexity.
