Algorithmic and yes-no thinking has destroyed subtle adaptive processes in real-world building

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.

• Languages that cannot be automatically evaluated inevitably contain unresolvable paradoxes; constructive computation avoids this by building representations over simple step-by-step operations.claim0.779
  Paper's interpretation of Gödel's incompleteness result as motivating computationalism
• If a building is made by a process that allows fine adaptation through feedback, it will have life; if built from fixed drawings, it will not.hypothesis0.773
  Predictive conditional summarizing the chapter's argument.
• Every living process must necessarily be an adaptive, step-by-step process that creates unity by adapting the structure into harmony with what exists.claim0.773
• The critical difference between successful living processes and unsuccessful modern architectural processes is the absence of feedback.claim0.773
  Summary of the root cause of lifelessness in modern architecture.
• In good architecture and good city-building, step-by-step adaptation was historically always present as a necessary core.claim0.771
  Historical claim that all successful building environments used stepwise adaptation.
• The core of all living process is step-by-step adaptation — the modification and evolution which happen gradually in response to information about the degree to which the emerging structure supports the whole.claim0.767
  Definition of the essential mechanism of living structure formation.
• Computer simulations cannot yet provide the level of subtlety or depth to judge the visceral effect of complex building spaces; therefore they cannot replace real-world step-by-step feedback.claim0.764
  Limitation of current simulation technology in capturing life-quality of spaces.
• We hypothesize that a similar 'brutal' and purely geometric process always occurs somewhere in other kinds of unfolding that generate living order — in poetry, dance, social structure, planning, and family relationships.hypothesis0.762
  Extends the brutal geometry thesis beyond architecture into all creative and social domains; acknowledged as not yet confirmed with certainty
