The Material Agencies: Robotics & Design Lab Studio will focus on robotic fabrication of composite fiber materials and generative algorithmic methods in architectural design. The students will investigate non-linear systems at both a methodological and tectonic level. The exploration will take the form of design research, which will be tested through an architectural proposal. Design research is not defined here as a linear scientific optimization process with objective outcomes, but rather as an iterative, non-linear and speculative process with the ability to reassess and shift disciplinary discourse.

Our speculative condition is that computation is not solely digital but omnipresent and that life is a state of information. Matter, is increasingly becoming indiscernible from media. A plethora of different scales of time, from the genetic to the geological, are in direct contact with our abstract predictive models, computational infrastructures and technical apparatuses. In our contemporary post-human context, our hybrid languages increase their potency of affection of the ‘real’ through acceleration. What is at stake then, beyond notions of mimicry of life and optimization of matter, is the search for a new type of poetry: a ‘logos’ inseparable from ‘becoming real’.
