Material Acts: A Symposium brings together artists, designers, and architects experimenting with material processes and systems. Understanding materials as process-based events with human actors, rather than artifacts found in stasis, this symposium on new materials explores the rich milieu of ideas that accompany their making, including practices in bioregional design, waste economies, and living systems, alongside perspectives of care, constraint, and regeneration.

COMPAS XR is an open-source tool dedicated to exploring the innovative intersections of eXtended Reality (XR) technologies within the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) sectors. Developed within the Compas framework, COMPAS XR aims to transform the construction industry by providing a streamlined approach to integrating immersive technologies, such as virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), into AEC workflows. This integration enables enhanced visualization, human-machine collaboration, and decision-making processes, ultimately leading to increased efficiency, reduced errors, and improved project outcomes.

Oliver’s research seeks to use solid timber to achieve all main structural and building physics requirements without adhesives, metal fasteners or other artificial material layers. A core focus of the project was a standard timber element, which features deep slits sawn in the profile to improve the thermal insulation performance of the envelope. The parameters of the timber profile are investigated to allow further improvements to energy performance.

Robots are our partners in the future. This exhibition showcases a collection of design activities and experiments by students at San José State University, as they test the creative possibilities of collaborating with a robot. Together with faculty and guest design collaborators Jonathon Anderson, Madeline Gannon, Andrew Kudless, and Gramazio Kohler Research, experiments shown in the exhibition engage the robot across multiple disciplines and media: calligraphy, photography, 3D-light painting, 3D-printing, and stop-motion animation.

E-Book: The Robotic Touch – How Robots Change Architecture
|
|
|
When "The Robotic Touch" was first published in 2014 by Park Books, it marked a pioneering exploration into the realm of digital architecture.
Whether you're an architect, a technology enthusiast, or simply intrigued by our endeavors, the book serves as a gateway to comprehending the profound impact robotics has on shaping our built environment. Originally released as a hardcover book and now out of print, we have made a freely accessible E-book version. Our aim is to make the wealth of knowledge within "The Robotic Touch" available to everyone. Download the E-book here.

Nikolaus Geyrhalter’s film “Matter Out of Place” follows the traces of rubbish across the planet and sheds light on people's endless struggle to control the vast quantities of waste. Matter Out of Place is a film about waste in remote areas and about people who are trying to clean up. The film is capturing the dispersion of garbage and is observing the Sisyphus-like work of garbage collectors and waste managers around the world.
