Resumo: By focusing the discussion on human dignity and built spaces, this article is divided into two parts. In the first one, we present a philosophical analysis of the bases of the method and of digital tools, seeking to show how René Descartes’ metaphysical premises have been transformed into tools that submerge individualities and homogenize urban aesthetics. In the second part, we analyze neuroscientific research related to the human capacity to decide. We conclude that the built environment is an active element in the formation of such capacity. In view of this, the use of digital tools to create architectural spaces, without knowledge of their philosophical foundations and limits, may be contributing to mass society, manipulable and potentially diminished in its dignity.

Na primeira, é feita uma análise filosófica das bases do método e das ferramentas digitais, procurando mostrar como as premissas metafísicas de René Descartes transformaram-se em ferramentas que submergem individualidades e homogeneízam a estética urbana. Na segunda parte, é feita uma análise de pesquisas neurocientíficas relacionadas à capacidade humana de decidir. Conclui-se que o ambiente construído é elemento ativo na formação desta. Diante desse quadro, a utilização de ferramentas digitais para a criação de espaços arquitetônicos, sem o conhecimento dos seus fundamentos filosóficos e de seus limites, pode estar contribuindo para uma sociedade massificada, manipulável e potencialmente diminuída em sua dignidade.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2023-04-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/metropole/article/view/5864210.1590/2236-9996.2023-5707Cadernos Metrópole; Vol. 25 No. 57 (2023): novas agendas urbanas; 515-535Cadernos Metrópole; Vol. 25 Núm. 57 (2023): novas agendas urbanas; 515-535Cadernos Metrópole; Vol. 25 No. 57 (2023): novas agendas urbanas; 515-535Cadernos Metrópole; v. 25 n. 57 (2023): novas agendas urbanas; 515-5352236-99961517-2422reponame:Cadernos Metrópole (Online)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)instacron:PUC_SPporenghttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/metropole/article/view/58642/42007https://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/metropole/article/view/58642/42008Copyright (c) 2023 Claudia Afonsohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAfonso, Claudia2023-04-27T15:20:37Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/58642Revistahttps://revistas.pucsp.br/metropolePRIhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phpcadernosmetropole@outlook.com||cadernosmetropole@outlook.com2236-99961517-2422opendoar:2023-04-27T15:20:37Cadernos Metrópole (Online) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)false
