Learning to collaborate : robots building together
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)
Since robots were first invented, robotic assembly has been an important area of research in both academic institutions and industry settings. The standard industry approach to robotic assembly lines utilizes fixed robotic ...
Ludus ex machina : toward computational play
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)
The day is not far off when autonomous, artificially intelligent computational subjects will be employed in creative industries such as architecture and design. Artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming ubiquitous, and ...
Observing the observers : a new experimental paradigm for the study of seeing and drawing
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)
One way to study how people design is to understand how others observe them designing. I take a step towards this understanding by examining how people segment visual design events temporally, in other words, how they ...
Form from within : scaling up self-constructing biological architectures through a novel application of synthetic morphogenesis
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)
In this thesis, I introduce a novel biofabrication method Architectures from Staged Self-assembly of Morphogenetic Building Elements (ASSEMBLE), that brings about self-constructing biological structures at the architectural ...
Augmented materials : towards reconnecting bits of mind and atoms of hand
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)
Multi-sensory interaction with material is the source of embodied design knowledge in the process of creative design. Through bodily engagement with material in the process of making, the integration of thinking and doing ...
