Online! Process fotos from our past 2 years of research @mitmedialab, Mediated Matter Group. Building sustainable bio-plastic products and inventing the Water-based Digital Fabrication Platform. ... "Inspired by aqueous material formation the Water-based Digital Fabrication Platform offers a new perspective on water-based manufacturing combining an age-old crustacean-derived material with robotic fabrication and synthetic biology to form constructs that utilize graded material properties for hydration-guided self-assembly." (http://goo.gl/2dQXAu) ... Research and Design by the Mediated Matter Group at the MIT Media Lab. Lead researchers include Jorge Duro-Royo, Laia Mogas-Soldevila, Daniel Lizardo and Neri Oxman (Director). Additional researchers include Markus Kayser, William Patrick, Sunanda Sharma, John Klein, Chikara Inamura and Steven Keating. The Water-based Digital Fabrication Platform development was supported in part by Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary (TBA-21). Collaborators include Dr. James Weaver, Prof. Javier G. Fernandez, Prof. Katia Bertoldi, Prof. Pamela Silver, Prof. Prof. Tim Lu, Allen Chen, Stephanie Hays, Eléonore Tham, Johannes Overvelde and Dan Robertson.
