Digital technologies and processes have been used to generate architectural form for over two decades; recent advances in digital technologies have allowed virtual digital environments to be constructed from physical movement. But can a bridge that connects the physical and virtual realms be developed? Can this, currently arbitrary form making be grounded in human activity and subsequently be integrated into real time, space and place? This paper describes the preliminary explorations of research which attempts to address these questions.
