He works on the history of architectural and urban technologies from the 18th century to the present. In his book \u003ci\u003eLa Ville territoire des cyborgs\u003c\/i\u003e (Editions de l'lmprimeur, 1998), he began to investigate the changes brought to cities and architecture by the development of digital tools and digital culture. His three most recent books - \u003ci\u003eDigital Culture in Architecture: An Introduction for the Design Profession\u003c\/i\u003e (Birkhauser,  2010); \u003ci\u003eOrnament:The Politics of Architecture and Subjectivity\u003c\/i\u003e (John Wiley \u0026amp; Sons,2013); and \u003ci\u003eSmart Cities: A Spatialised Intelligence\u003c\/i\u003e (Wiley, 2015) - deal extensively with this question. He received science and engineering degrees from the Ecole Polytechnique and Ecole Nationale des Ponts et Chaussees, an architecture degree from the Ecole d'Architecture de Paris-Villemin, and a PhD in history from the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWendy W Fok\u003c\/b\u003e is the creative director\/ founder of WE DESIGNS, which provides creative strategies for the built environment, as well as Resilient Modular Systems, a socially missioned venture and public-benefit corporation that focuses on innovative modular components using hybridised composite materials for the building industry. Her awards include the Autodesk® Pier 9 AiR (2016), Young CAADRIA Award (2015), Digital Kluge Fellowship awarded by the Library of Congress (2014- 15), the Art Directors Club of New York's ADC Young Guns 11 Award (2013), and the American Institute of Architects (AIA) Dallas 'Express Yourself' Women in Architecture Award (2013). She has a Master of Architecture from Princeton University, and a  Bachelor of Arts in Architecture from Barnard College, Columbia University. She is an Assistant Professor of Integrated Design at Parsons, and completed her Doctor of Design at the Harvard GSD. Her doctoral research investigates computational innovation, the ethical\/equitable application of technical methods of digital fabrication, and issues of intellectual property law within ownership and authorship property rights for the built environment.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEven more than authorship, ownership is challenged by the rise of digital and computational methods of design and production.
