The competition project of the Institute of Informatics of Technical University in Graz has been designed as a metaphor of fast development (movement) of informatics, and also as that of perhaps the most widely used tool of informatics – the computer. Storage discs of this "university computer" are represented by three lecture theatres being in continuous rotary movement as the informatics itself. Rotation of the lecture theatres was intended to condense and integrate their performance, and also to provide the space for their alternative contact with adjacent laboratories and with outside atriums. Above the lecture theatres, the central hall and other parts of the Institute grew up in cross layout; they were assumed to become infilled gradually during the 1st and 2nd stage – similarly like computer memory does.
