Resumo:
Generative Computational Design is a form of Design that manages to generate a virtually infinite amount of possible solutions and filter them through computational analysis. Each analysis experiences and grades a demand, which can be related to different entities and how they affect and are affected by a design. In this way, these analyzes can be understood as a way of including in an integrated way several factors in the synthesis of the form of Design. Even with all this potential, approaches based on Generative Computational Design still face difficulties in analyzing and including some demands, especially those of a subjective nature. This has been changing due to the recent introduction of Deep Learning techniques in Design. These tools are able to capture implicit knowledge through their ability to find patterns in large amounts of data and replicate them. Thus, they can replicate the assessment of a human designer. This research specifically focuses on the analysis of criteria processed by non-symbolic human capacities. These capabilities are those that humans share with vertebrate animals and allow them the understanding of meanings and the triggering of actions without the need for language. These capacities have at the same time an objective character, because they have a biological basis common to all humans; and subjective, because they are influenced by a subject s psychic state, motivations and experience. In this context, the problem identified is that without a theoretical basis these techniques end up being limited to a fanciful and naive exercise in Design automation and simplistic approaches to style transfer. Thus, this research starts from the hypothesis that a theoretical foundation of knowledge from the Post- Human Theory, from the connectionist neuroscience and from the Fundamental Theories of Design can enable non-symbolic human factors to be effectively included in the synthesis of the form of processes of Generative Computational Design through Deep Learning techniques. The objective of this work is to understand how the insertion of these new techniques associated with a specific theoretical foundation will enable the inclusion of non-symbolic factors in the synthesis of form in Generative Computational Design processes. To achieve this objective, the research proposes the elaboration of a conceptual methodological framework based on the state of the art of the intersection between Generative Computational Design and Deep Learning techniques associated with Post-human knowledge, connectionist neuroscience and Design Foundations theories; as well as the verification of the operation of the technique through the execution of a practical experimental procedure. The research intertwines two current and significant themes for the Field of Design. On the one hand, it seeks knowledge that prepares designers for the transformations that the incorporation of recent artificial intelligence techniques has caused; and on the other hand, it is part of efforts to make Design an instrument for transforming society through a rapprochement with non-symbolic capacities.
