Περίληψη

During the last ten years we witness a remarkable achievement in the field of architecture which is the implementation of kinetic systems in the built environment. While the exploration of this path is far from over, it is well established that as a feat it is feasible with a large number of interesting technologies already present. A plethora of novel experimentations and long-term research efforts have developed a variety of approaches, forming a technical know-how non-existent before. Yet, this quest brings us in front of a threshold. With the techniques to achieve kinesis conquered, what are the next essential elements that will ensure the wide acceptance of such approaches? Beyond the technical expertise lays the crucial aspect that defines the success, or failure, of any innovation: people’s acceptance. Innovation, in general, tries to permeate a resisting layer of inertia. In order for something radical or innovative to get accepted by the wider public, it must acquire certain characteristics that will facilitate a transition to a new (everyday) reality. Historically, humanity has crossed such a border many times, with the most dramatic one noted during the passage from the 19th to the 20th century. The contemporary preconceptions of the world were rocked to their core when many everyday life routines changed radically. While the changes occurring at the turn of our century may be dramatic as well, the broader information exchange and the innumerable predictions of the future to come make this transition easier. Nevertheless, though, the passage through the uncanny valley is there to cross, even if we make this journey while playing Angry Birds on our brand new smartphone.
