Artificial and natural in the past have been seen as mortal enemies of each other. Always competing with each other for existence, until recently. Artificiality as reached a stage of complexion which has allowed it to finally learn from and copy natural design, and surpass it. Blurring the lines, raising moral question, creating grey areas […]
Every species is in a state of constant evolution. Humans are an interesting species as we evolve not just physically but also technologically. We live in symbiosis with countless other species and cells yet we have never tried to communicate through them. A New language could be established through architecture. The bottom bread spends his […]
[“at the onset of a process of self-organization…the mechanisms become extremely sensitive to minor fluctuations in the environment…”naturally selecting” one assembly pattern over another” -Manuel DeLanda, Nonorganic Life ] Many of our networks can be described as “alive” because, while they are not made of biological tissue, they have become so complex, that the […]
Here is a link to my internal review video from the review on Wednesday. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcvwsCOxKYE\ To kickstart my project, I have been reading Elias Canetti’s book Crowds and Power, and extracting quotes that are relevant for the crowd logics I am studying and attempting to model. This PDF shows all of the quotes I extracted with important phrases (for […]
Overtime humanity has alerted the landscape to better fit their needs, to provide shelter, and comfort from the elements. Over time these structures evolved, and so did their building material point to the point that they began to dominate the natural landscape. Recently though, architecture has to tried to reconnect with the natural landscape, using […]
What defines the boundary between a network of life and systems that is one organism and the greater network in which that organism lives? In our discussion last Wednesday, it was mentioned that “I” is sort of superficial because “I” (referring to a single human body) is actually referring to a combination of systems […]
What do organisms do, are they restricted to completing tasks or can they just coexist. What possibilities are opened by looking at effects as organisms. A wave traveling along the ocean is a group of molecules that are interacting and spreading their influence as they go. Any action on the earth is an organism of […]
Introducing a stockpile into a void creates a closed system. Where there was nothing now stands a set of entities, possibly simple or symbiotic that can survive from that resource and others use of that resource. Depending on the complexity of the stockpile different simple forms of life can procreate. These allow for a large […]

Pet Architecture- Animals have better instincts such as anticipating danger, finding water and food, etc. How can they be used for architecture, resources, survival- in extreme locations or after extreme disasters? Which species would be useful for resource gathering, and which for post-colonization equilibrium maintenance within the new ecosystem? Dune– “Movement across the landscape is a necessity […]
