Video-computer simulation and architectural creation

Abstract

Videosimulation is one of the most exciting and rapidly developing branches of computer science, multimedia, cinema. In the architectural designing process videosimulation means an anticipated performance, imitation, visual representation or visualization of the artifacts of the creative concepts or intents. In application videosimulation gains a new and more significant role – it becomes a tool, an auxiliary method of modeling or anticipating more complicated systems of the spatial manifestations of the material environment and of the continuity of their the space-time effects. Videosimulation creates specific conditions for the verification, appreciation and creation of the aesthetic and functional quality of material and spiritual substance. In architecture, spatial videosimulation is the most effective method of scientific research/recognition. In the Technical University of Moldova “Video-Computer Simulation” course has been elaborated and included into the curriculum of the specialty “2401, Architecture”.
