for INTuition and eVALuation
Interactive urban planning visual language
developed by Kamnitzer at UCLA, with the co-operation of NASA and General Electric (NASA got GE to build the NASA II computer to enable Apollo project fly-throughs).
Designed to permit exploratory manpulation of urban space, including first-ever fly-throughs of virtual urban vistas "City-scape", which is illustrated. The Younglblood references the Film.
from Youngblood:
"The metalanguage that Kamnitzer has designed to facilitate this activity is called Intuval, derived from intuition and evaluation. Professor Kamnitzer considers Intuval to be an "answer" to the optimization attitude toward the computer. "What we are doing," he says, "is very different from people who want to use the computer to optimize for them and thereby the computer provides the answers. I am using the visual simulation subsystem to trigger the next creative leap in the human brain, and therefore I consider my approach very different from the usual rush into data banks and optimization. If used in an experientially meaningful manner the computer can provoke the next creative leap, while in my opinion the reading of charts, books, monographs, and statistics does not lead to a creative advancement. Books are being written every day, the libraries are full, the data banks are going to burst, but the decision-maker does not have access to this information when he needs it, in a form that is meaningful to him at this moment."
