Autopoiesis (from Greek αὐτo- (auto-), meaning "self", and ποίησις (poiesis), meaning "creation, production") literally means "self-creation" and expresses a fundamental dialectic among structure, mechanism and function. (source: wiki)
structure exists at all levels ... multiple copies of a lower-level structure, tiled and rotated again and again...
We are working on some affordable models of mechanisms that we'll share as part of the up and coming Kickstarter campaign. Which will be sometime after the video is complete.
...sometime later...

I've grossly underestimate the complexity of some of my own designs. Apparently, you need to be a bit of a rocket surgeon to assemble them. This limits the scale of the models I'll be able to provide as rewards to the campaign. Indeed, each of the designs I created for the campaign could be Kickstarter project in their own right.
There is loads more to come including an art show in San Francisco.

I would love to support this and have one as well!
ReplyDeleteIt is a really impressive looking device. I look forward to seeing more and hearing more. Good luck with the Kickstarter I would like to support something like this.

Very cool stuff. I'd like to know when the kickstarter event happens too, :).
ReplyDeleteLovely idea. I'd appreciate a nudge when the kick-starter kick starts.
ReplyDeleteAll this moving electrons stuff is far too brainy for me. Wooden gearing is where it's at! PLEASE notify me when the Kickstarter event opens, I'm very willing to contribute.
ReplyDelete+1 :)
ReplyDeleteFantastic Looking! Please let me know when you kickstart.
