| Opplysninger | Selection of archival drawings presented in a book for the 2019 Oslo Architecture Triennale titled "Enough: Architecture of Degrowth. "In commemoration with the book The Limits to Growth produced by the Club of Rome, this book displays original drawings and process sketches of the world model presented in the book. Made by Jay Forrester and his colleagues at MIT, these drawings: Visualize consequences of industrial production and population growth on a global scale, and thus demonstrate how the concept of de-growth was discussed in 1972. The drawings are visual representations of systems theory, which is a mode of thinking closely connected to postwar developments in computation. Systems theory became highly influential to architecture and design in terms of thinking of design via systems—a mode of thought which still resonates today.
