DIGITAL TECTONICAL DEMONSTRATIONS As architectural researchers explore ways to exploit digital technologies in design and construction, their computers are shifting roles. They are not only representational devices but are becoming instruments for simulation and fabrication. Professors Brad Bell, Andrew Vrana, and Joe Meppelink have been experimenting with the potential of these digital techniques through a variety of research projects conducted with students over the past year. — Editor
