Research Questions, Key Words

RESEARCH QUESTIONS

1. How can extended reality be used to advance the world of architecture through the method of “Space Making”? 2. How can the digital twin of built buildings be reused as a resource once construction has fi nished? 3. What social or political eff ects would the wide adoption of [X]R into public spaces have on society? 4. What problems does architecture and [X]R currently face?

KEY WORDS

• Space Making: Carving space out of a form or combining forms to create a sense of place that users can occupy or experience. • Virtual Place Making: The act of designing computer generated spaces that can be experienced and occupied through extended reality technologies. • Meta-Verse: Virtual landscape space in which users can interact with a computergenerated environment and other users. • [X]R Extended Reality: Combination of Physical and virtual spaces that enable users to feel immersed in an altered environment utilizing technology from AR, VR,

MR and or Haptic feedback. • Tactical Immersive urbanism: “Tactical Urbanism is all about action. Also known as

DIY Urbanism, Planning-by-Doing, Urban Acupuncture, or Urban Proto-typing, this approach refers to a city, organizational, and/or citizen-led approach to neighborhood building using short-term, low-cost, and scalable interventions to catalyze long-term change.” • Immersive Spaces: Immersive spaces are physical and digital environments where the occupant feel emotionally or physically detached from the real world and associate with the alternative surrounding space. • Digital Urbanism: Communities created within digital spaces. • Public Space: As defi ned in the book “How to study public life”: by Jan Gehl and

Birgitte Svarre. “Public Space is under stood as streets, alleys, buildings squares, bollards: everything that can be considered part of the built environment.” • Public Life: “Everything that takes place between buildings,

• World Building:

• Haptic Feedback: Simulate physical forms through sensory simulation or recreation to s also know simulate physical forms through virtual technologies.Also know as kinetic connection. • Vernacular Architecture: Related to regional architecture this methods of designing focuses on construction materials and methods that refl ect a particular place, culture or community. • Augmented city: Can be referred to as Augmented Urbanism is the connection or adoption of Virtual communication within existing urban life and spaces. • BIM: Building Information Modeling, • Extended Architecture: The production of well designed spaces where Architects create spaces with BIM forms, enabling connectivity through immersive space making and safe inhabiter environments that are responsible to the users, community, and the environment.
