The Spring Material Agencies semester-long design course demands a critical and creative response to the role of design within the domain of autonomous manufacturing and Industry 4.0. While the subject matter varies, the course centers on the demonstration of a robotically manufactured prototype that operates as a full-scale part or whole of a design proposal for a building, space, or event. Working in small groups, participants will develop designs for a speculative project-driven scenario explored within computer simulations and other forms of design media in addition to a fabricated prototype. Projects are demonstrated through a comprehensive design-research into material and robotic processes that is supported by ARCH804, ARCH806 and ARCH808 coursework.
