Complex Bodies and Distributed Choreographies
Recent advances in digital fabrication and computationally controlled environments have produced new forms of architecture that exhibit dynamic kinetic behaviours in physical space and time. We are exploring a choreographic approach to designing the interactions and behaviours of kinetic architectures, in which patterns, compositions and qualities of movement are defined across heterogeneous elements of bodies, kinetic materials, spatial structures, and software code. We apply a research-through-design approach and produce prototype and finished systems for research and exhibition.
