Descrição: In this article, I posit that for the field of architecture to come to a distinctly architectural application of computational technologies it requires the elaboration of a concept of critical technics. This is premised on a systems-view of technical development, which highlights the importance of time and situatedness for any consideration of change, genesis or becoming. In order to then construct an architectural technicity that can grapple with the external character of technical development, I argue – using the philosophy of technology of Gilbert Simondon and Stafford Beer's management cybernetics – that what is needed for this is a radical opening-up of the architectural process in the form of a democratisation, to augment architecture's capacity for producing alternate futurity.
