‘Designed’ memory
Abstract
The paper proposes a morphological interpretation of a mediaeval site, chosen as emblem of the analytical survey and critique, in order to discuss its role in a cognitive / informative model. The possibility of sharing data, comparing interpretations and most of all of accessing and modifying models, makes knowledge functional to design phases, cultural heritage management and the safeguard of peoples’ cultural “roots” when natural catastrophes and/or human intervention reduce ancient centers to rubble. Up to date and in alignment with the current notion of systems’ culture, the standardization obtained from the philological analysis of the recognized identities presents an opportunity to ponder the possibility of changing the principles on which the H-BIM families are based. In the broader perspective of the debate on the nature and fundamentals of digital representation, the opportunity to contribute was seized.
