-In early 2011 Archimorph will be publishing their first book, self-titled; Archimorph Book I: Architecture, Biomimetics, Technology. More information will be available closer to the release date.-JB

“The sculpture acts in the tradition of the marginalized mid-century American medical doctor Wilhelm Reich who said “all plasmatic matter perceives, with or without sensory nerves. The amoeba has no sensory or motor nerves, and still it perceives…The terror of the total convulsion, of involuntary movement and spontaneous excitation is joined to the splitting up […]

“The Ocean of Light project explores the creative and immersive possibilities of light-based visualisation in physical space. It uses bespoke hardware to create dynamic, interactive and three-dimensional sculptures from light.” “Surface is the first artwork to be exhibited using the Ocean of Light hardware. It uses minimal visuals and sound to evoke the essence of […]

This week Archimorph will begin work as consultant among other designers [Sbanter, VerS, and morphism design] developing interior design for Hangar 9 bar. Parametric and building performance software will be employed to install and fabricate multiple spatial enhancing pieces to the interior, including lighting and acoustical enhancements. The project will be well documented to show […]

Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fabricated as tethers using a technique known as gel spinning creates a material which is 40 times stronger than kevlar and 100 times greater strength-to-weight ratio than steel cables. By weaving together multiple layers fibrous layers of high strength polyethylene tensile strengths greater than steel are able to be […]

First fully functional synthetic self-reproducing cell announced from Craig Venter (J. Craig Venter Institute). Initial endeavors by archimorph into bottom-up self-replicating systems were pursued through a purely technological trajectory of nanoscale robotics. However, it was noted shortly after this project (the self-fab house: cultivating spaces) that the current breakthroughs and research into the biological sciences […]

All you skiers and boarders, rejoice! Investigators from the Orthopedic Bioengineering Laboratory at Duke University created a 3D scaffold that one day might be impregnated with your own stem cells, in order to create new functional cartilage: Using a unique weaving machine of their design, Duke University Medical Center researchers have created a three-dimensional fabric […]

> > -Images from Winter 2010 Exhibition at University of Michigan robotic fabrication with Wes McGee and David Pigram. Trajectories were chosen from previous research agendas started in 2009 and with the kuka 6-axis robotic arm were advanced and constructed as a 1:1 prototype. Robotic research areas from top to bottom: Polyurethane Foam Rapid Prototyping, […]

This is the initial stage of test 5 with the kuka 7-axis robotic arm and spray polyurethane foam. Here we are testing standoff control and wait time between layers based off of our previous variable matrix testing. With new regulators being added to the tanks we should game slightly more control between the consistency of […]
