I believe such a system of living processes can be described precisely, can be made practical, and can be implemented.claim0.802
Alexander's optimistic programmatic statement for a worldwide generative system.
We must therefore find a way—a practical way—of slowly, gently, transforming today's processes from what they actually are today, to making them better.claim0.801
Every living process must necessarily be an adaptive, step-by-step process that creates unity by adapting the structure into harmony with what exists.claim0.791
Possibly the most basic and necessary feature of any living process is the fact that it goes gradually.claim0.788
Core thesis of the chapter: gradual, step-by-step progression is the bedrock of life.
Awareness that living process will change our means of production entirely is only beginning to sink in.claim0.785
Visionary statement about the transformative potential of adopting step-by-step process.
For the first time in modern history, ways of thinking are available that make the criteria for 'living' potentially sharable and actually shared.claim0.782
Asserts that the theoretical foundation laid out in the four books provides a public quality standard for sequences.
The step-by-step evolution of living centers, in a progressive differentiating process, is a biological necessity — an essential part of the adaptation of a complex system.claim0.779
Claims that unfolding is not a stylistic choice but a biological requirement for adaptive buildings.
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.claim0.774
Definition of the essential mechanism of living structure formation.
