In architectural practice today the computer maintains a central role in design and production. However, its narrow focus on the automation of simple drafting tasks fails to address the extraordinary potentials digitalization holds for design culture in general and the discipline of architecture in particular. _virtualengagement represents a set of topics that greatly extends the role of computers in the design process beyond task automation. This course unpacks the role of programming in design and investigates the potentials of working systematically with the machine not simply as a tool, but a collaborator in the process.
