THE CITY as a system or group of systems has elements that interact between each other to exist, to evolve and to transform themselves. The City modeling is the representation of this natural reality. The City’s system to optimise its functions in different situations has urban modeling tools that allow us reprogramming it, the plug–ins.
The plug-in is an application, program or system, that interacts with another system to modify its functionality. For example in the informatic systems, where the plug–ins complement and optimise the databases, or like in the natural systems, where the photosynthesis plug-in acts over the atmosphere, or like the plug–ins in the system called CITY.
G. is a plug-in (application) that every urban system must consider.
G. in Urban - Architecture means to insert a PLUG – IN, that transforms the software Urban - Architecture in Urban - Architecture .G
G. is the insertion of the concept “GRAVITY” in the architectural –urban development
THE URBAN GRAVITY CONDITION is the deformation of the human being – habitat geometry.
GRAVITY... Is not about a specific architecture... Its is about the study of diverse interconected scales, it describes, first , the gravity mechanism.... in a metropoli… in a neighborhood... in an urban space.... in a house… in the human mind…..it gives considerations in the modeling process of the Architecture and the city.
The principles of urban gravity involves different levels, such as the materia, the energy and the information.
. The Materia, as the physical structure of the urban system.
. The Energy, as the dynamic interactions in the urban system, allowing the different structures to create and canalize massive integration, specialisation and/ or consolidation processes.
. The Information, as a way to guide the energy with the objective to transform the materia, making the structure be in constant interaction with other structures, depending on its masa and its variability and how it models and adapts to the environment.
The Urban Gravity is the level of attraction or repulsion that a human being – habitat can do to other systems to allow them reach their goals: “To gain more energy and be able to stay alive”
This principle is present in the generation of physical, biological and social structures, as fields of power (energetic or organisational) that regulate the systems equilibrium. The gravitational fields are generated by the level of the interactions (interchange of materia, energy and information) between the “masas – unity of existence” of the components.
G. means to model the space trough gravities, since the macro – scale to the architectural elements and work with structures that are able to be modeled by the gravity ... and even reach the human impulses that determined human behaviours, and then keep generating new gravities.
The human gravity works through processes whose components are in constant regulation.
