Abstract: | Sean Ahlquist and Moritz Fleischmann are both former graduates of the Emergent Technologies and Design Programme at the Architectural Association (AA) in London, who have now established their own innovative research and design practice, morse. Here they describe their work with computational spring algorithms that has enabled iterative investigations of tension active systems and structures. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. |
