Marble Fairbanks Architects have produced an installation piece for MOMA that deserves some attention.
In Flatform, they researched three basic ideas, metal as the material, laser cutting as the technology, and folding as the means to manipulate the material. Working with these three ideas, Marble Fairbanks Architects constructed a piece without the use of any mechanical fasteners. There have been some excellent examples done in the past, but what is interesting to point out and different from other examples, is the cross section or anchoring/bridging of the folded metal between the two layers that are programmed to lock together in certain ways, to create stronger connection. Viewing between the layers, one gets to observe the double sided finish of the exterior folded stainless steel and the painted finish on the inside face. These effects become interesting when revealing the detail within the connection, please take the time to browse through.

Call for papers and artworks - ACM SIGGRAPH 2009/Leonardo
Lira Nikolovska, Chair of Design and Computation of SIGGRAPH 2008, asked Core.Form-ula to encourage the submission of papers and artwork for SIGGRAPH 2009. Having participated in SIGGRAPH 2008-Design and Computation in LA, it is incredible array of work exemplifying how computation is used in many design disciplines. Crafting through computation is something designers have learned to master to great lengths, I believe we will get the chance to see the other shades of computation and design in Morphology being introduce at this event. Please take the time to review the details of the event.
