(n)certainties – Columbia – Fall 2008

This is a new trajectory that will go along the surface of a tire cemetery and will collect some tires underneath along its path.

The machine that will generate the shape will be eating and shredding tires from underneath to separate the rubber from the nylon and the steel inside. It will be weaving the nylon and the steel on top of it and dropping melted rubber as well.

The first trial for the shape generated is a rubber worm that changes its width and height according to the movement and dimensions of the robot.
