Forming/Unforming is a publication for SUTD’s Architecture and Sustainable Design programme. The design process of the book involves the creation of algorithms to both extract and curate its very content. Natural language processing algorithms are used to measure, identify and summarise documents’ textual content, while image processing algorithms are used to extract and quantise documents’ graphical colour content. In doing so, we question the possibility of artificially curating and designing a book of any kind.
