The following text introduces the first five articles produced by participants in the 2025 Toolkit for Today: Computation is the New Optics. Drawing on Felicity Scott’s concept of “dataland” from Outlaw Territories, this collective statement by Ben Clark, Dimitris Hartonas, Piergianna Mazzocca, Giuditta Trani, and Katrin Zavgorodny-Freedman traces how architecture has long been entangled with infrastructures that circulate knowledge. Informed by the CCA Collection, the five short essays trace data across colonial networks, oceans, oil fields, sound waves, and construction sites, revealing how systems of information have shaped the built environment on a global scale.

Abstract
The following text introduces the first five articles produced by participants in the 2025 Toolkit for Today: Computation is the New Optics. Drawing on Felicity Scott’s concept of “dataland” from Outlaw Territories, this collective statement by Ben Clark, Dimitris Hartonas, Piergianna Mazzocca, Giuditta Trani, and Katrin Zavgorodny-Freedman traces how architecture has long been entangled with infrastructures that circulate knowledge. Informed by the CCA Collection, the five short essays trace data across colonial networks, oceans, oil fields, sound waves, and construction sites, revealing how systems of information have shaped the built environment on a global scale.
