"What these undergraduate scientists are being taught...is the central component of work being done on architectural modeling and rendering at the university's Program of Computer Graphics (PCG), work that in the next five years will fundamentally change the way all designers do their jobs...Richard Meier critiques undergraduate design studio students using Architectural Studio, soft-ware that allows collaboration over the Internet. Meier, who is in New York, sees the same images as the students in Ithaca and can sketch on top of their plans using a stylus and tablet."
