'What is Interactive Architecture? Let me first clarify what it is not. Interactive Architecture - from here on abbreviated as iA - is not simply architecture that is responsive or adaptive to changing circumstances. On the contrary, iA is based on the concept of bi-directional communication, which requires two active parties. Naturally, communication between two people is interactive; they both listen [input], think [process] and talk [output]. But iA is not about communication between people, it is first defined as the art of building relationships between built components and second, as building relations between people and built components.' - Kas Oosterhuis (series editor)
