"International’s set design – a pinboard of tiny white lights that signals extremes of weather, from blizzard to clear night sky – is an ever-changing marvel.” The Independent, via http://random-international.com/work/far/

patterned by nature

"Patterned by Nature was commissioned by the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences for the newly built Nature Research Center in Raleigh, North Carolina.  A collaboration between Plebian Design, Hypersonic Engineering & Design, and Sosolimited.  Abstraction of nature's infinite complexity into patterns through the scientific process, and through our perceptions." sosolimited via notcot

modii

"modii is a parametrically designed interactive installation by students of Delft University of Technology. modii's goal as an interactive environment is to create a balance in the number of people between the two sides of the installation." via http://www.projectmodii.com/

olga diego

"This exhibit, Aire (Air), a few months back at the Mustang Art Gallery, is an installation by Spanish artist Olga Diego. Working with plastic, both translucent and transparent, and plastic bags, along with electronic circuits that inflated and deflated each structure, Diego filled the gallery with six separate inflatable works that interact with each other and with those who viewed the show in its space." via colla cubed

amorphic robot works

"The Inflatable Architectural Body.... attempts to further develop the Inflatables technology while creating a new dialogue between man, machine, and architecture. In this work, I am modeling nature on a microscopic, fractal level. It comprises a system of plug-and-play, inflatable, musculoskeletal modules which allow me to design a series of transformative organic structures influenced by the exhibition space." Chico MacMurtie, ARW website

cybernetic future

"Beesley is more concerned with modeling organic systems of behavior—processes of “communication and control,” to borrow a phrase from the cyberneticists of the 1940s and 50s.... This work is not meant merely to be looked at, but rather to act directly on the human occupant, evoking instinctive emotional responses." Joseph Clarke

year zero

"Let's make this just a snapshot of something. And they came up with the mechanism, the fiction of a 20th of a second of the Internet got sent back in time and landed on our Internet. And what was nice about that was it eliminated progression of story. It eliminated the narrative." Trent Reznor
