Structure without Substance: Video as Architecture

by Peter Callas

Artlink, 1987, v. 4, no. 3, pp. 61-62

"...it is evident that Japanese architects are beginning to take video and other image-based media into account in the design of overall architectural structure...'everything is illumination'. Architecture used to be made of solid, opaque materials but now it's made of neon and electricity. Architecture is no longer substance."
