Architectural artist, Natalie Alima, and Monash University’s SensiLab Director, Professor Jon McCormack, will explore ways of controlling and orchestrating biological materials and organic chemistry, using #robotic intervention, algorithmic design and advanced digital fabrication, in order to advance the potential for living and breathing inhabitable designs.
A pop-up for positive change. The award-winning The New Joneses’ pop-up home is back, showing that with each lifestyle choice we make, from our bank to our energy company, we can create positive impact.
Get down to The New Joneses TINY HOUSE to learn about their Big Life Little Footprint ethos at Fed Square. Learn which energy company, which bank, which car, which bin, which bed, which coffee, which dunny paper you can chose to positively impact our people and planet! On til Til Feb 25, 2017 in association with the Sustainable Living Festival.

“Chris Tack made seven trips to Goodwill to get rid of his stuff, before moving into the 140-square-foot home he and his wife Malissa Tack designed and built. Constructed on a trailer bed and parked in Snohomish, Washington, the house is more than enough space for them, the couple says. And one advantage of a home on wheels, the 29-year-olds say, is that you can always move.”

biome is a cluster of researchers, practitioners and artists investigating natural paradigms as a language shared in biology, mathematics, music, behavioural studies, engineering, interaction design and architecture. Digital derivations of biological systems, biomimetics, are increasingly informing research in a diverse range of disciplines. The biome Symposium engages in conversations that explore a mathematical language (code, script, parameter, algorithm) as a natural paradigm, and transfers of this language into and out of the diverse fields of biology, mathematics, music, behavioural studies, engineering, interaction design and architecture.
