🟣 SC: Spatial Computing 🌀 DTech: Digital Technologies
The year was 1998, and AOL trial CDs were filling mailboxes from coast to coast. Connecting to the Internet meant sitting through a chorus of dial-up tones and disabling one of your phone lines in the process. Between Yahoo chat rooms, the early rumbles of Y2K, and Will Smith’s “Gettin’ Jiggy Wit It,” a pop star wanting to run his own ISP didn’t seem all that strange.

🔘 Arch 🔵 FS
One of the most challenging aspects of this change will be to meet mounting cooling demands in an eco-friendly way. Cooling is innately more difficult than heating: any form of energy can become heat, and our bodies and machines naturally generate heat even in the absence of active heating systems. Cooling does not benefit equally from spontaneous generation, making it often more difficult, more costly, or less efficient to implement. Global warming and its very tangible heating effects only exacerbate this reality, intensifying an already accelerating demand for artificial cooling systems. As it stands, many of these systems require large amounts of electricity and rely heavily on fossil fuels to function. The buildings sector must find ways to meet mounting demand for cooling that simultaneously elides these unsustainable effects.
