Archaeology of the Digital is an exhibition that delves into the genesis and establishment of digital tools for design conceptualization, visualization and production at the end of the 1980s and the beginning of the 1990s. Originally conceived by the Canadian Centre for Architecture and curated by architect Greg Lynn, the exhibition is an object-based investigation of four pivotal projects that established distinct directions in architecture’s use of digital tools: the Lewis Residence by Frank Gehry (1989-1995), Peter Eisenman’s Biozentrum, Biology Center for the J. W. Goethe University (1987), Shoei Yoh’s roof structures for Odawara Municipal Sports Complex (1990-1991) and Galaxy Toyama Gymnasium (1990-1992), and Chuck Hoberman’s Expanding Sphere (1988-1992) and Iris Dome (1990-1994).
