(n)certainties – Columbia – Fall 2008

The proposal generates a “masterplan” and “inhabitance cells” within the same logic of construction. By using the Voronoi diagram only as a tool to embody the system, a group of connected isolation bodies is achieved. This structure pretends interdependence and provides the proposal with the advantages of closed and an opened systems articulating different scales. The whole system, each island and the skin, are generated with silightly similar patterns.

The robot that generates the system eats tires underneath creating an empty labyrinth while producing a rubber+nylon+steel canopy on top of it. Sometimes the machine goes back following the same trajectory without producing the surface on top or eating tires.
