The new montage: digital compositing and its generative role in architecture
Sencar, Işıl; Özkar, Mine; Department of Architecture (2007)

Towards the end of the 80s, however, as a result of the introduction of the digital environment, the quality and quantity of methods of production and transfer of knowledge have increased and the flow of information ...
