[ FORMULATION ] I EXISTING I I CONSCIOUSNESS I I QUESTION I


[ FORMULATION I EXISTING ]

[ BUILT ENVIRONMENT ] Human-made surroundings providing the setting for human activity. It is a material, spatial and cultural product of human labour that combines physical elements and energy in forms necessary for living, working and playing.


[ FORMULATION I EXISTING ]

[ ORGANISM ] Any contiguous living system capable of response to stimuli, reproduction, growth and development, and maintenance of homeostasis as a stable whole.


[ FORMULATION I CONSCIOUSNESS ]

[ CONSCIOUSNESS ]

TO BE IN AN ALERT COGNITIVE STATE IN WHICH YOU ARE AWARE OF YOURSELF AND YOUR SURROUNDINGS [ CREATURE CONSCIOUSNESS ]

SENTIENCE IS THE ABILITY TO FEEL, OR PERCEIVE, OR BE CONSCIOUS, OR HAVE SUBJECTIVE EXPERIENCES


[ FORMULATION I CONSCIOUSNESS ]

[ RESPONSIVE TECHNOLOGIES ] Current responsive technologies use sensors, control systems, and actuators to articulate an adaptation to a influence


[ FORMULATION I QUESTION ]

[ WHAT WILL BE OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH OUR TECHNOLOGIES IN THE FUTURE ] [ HOW CAN THESE TECHNOLOGIES INFLUENCE OUR ENVIRONMENT ] [ WHAT IS A CONSCIOUS BUILT ENVIRONMENT ]


[ RESEARCH ] I STEM CELLS I I SHAPE MEMORY POLYMERS I I SHAPE SHIFTING I


[ RESEARCH I STEM CELLS ]

Stem cells are biological cells found in all multicellular organisms, that can divide through mitosis and differentiate into diverse specialized cell types and can self renew to produce more stem cells

Cell colonies that are not yet differentiated

Developed into nerve cells

CONSTANT: stem cell

INFLUENCE: mitosis

RESPONSE: product


[ RESEARCH I SHAPE MEMORY POLYMERS ]

CONSTANT: polymers

INFLUENCE: energy

RESPONSE: shape change


[ RESEARCH I SHAPE SHIFTING ]

[ BIG THINK VIDEO: MICHIO KAKU: PROFESSOR OF THEORETICAL PHYSICS] scientists are investigating programmable matter matter itself that can rearrange itself, change color, change shape, change conductivity how is this possible? It’s because of atoms Atoms can slide over atoms and rearrange themselves What happens if atoms are replaced by computer chips, chips that are so small they’re smaller than the head of a pin. And you can change their electric charge By changing the electric charge they bind and reform in different ways and they’re intelligent because each dot is a computer chip perhaps as powerful as a PC

CONSTANT: atoms

INFLUENCE: energy

RESPONSE: change


[ DESIGN ] I PARAMETERS I I CONSCIOUS SYSTEM I I REALIZATION I


[ DESIGN I PARAMETERS ]

CONSTANT: MATERIAL

VARIABLES: EXTERNAL

BEHAVIOUR: INTERNAL

LIGHT TEMPERATURE WIND USER ENERGY

OPEN CLOSE SHIFT EXPAND CONTRACT

RESPONSE: CONSCIOUS SYSTEM


[ DESIGN I CONSCIOUS SYSTEM ]

THE CONSCIOUS SYSTEM IS CONTINUOUSLY AWARE OF ITS SURROUNDINGS. THE SYSTEM IS IMBUED WITH SENSORY CAPACITIES AND PROGRAMMED BEHAVIOURS. IT WILL NOT ONLY RESPOND TO HUMAN PRESENCE BUT ALSO WITH THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT,

LIGHT AND TEMPERATURE. THE

CONSCIOUS SYSTEM WILL BRIDGE THE CAP BETWEEN OUR BUILT ENVIRONMENT AND OUR NATURAL ENVIRONMENT BY BEING IN ESSENCE ALIVE.


[ DESIGN I CONSCIOUS SYSTEM ] EXTENT OF SURFACE TRANSFORMATION BASED ON SET BEHAVIOUR PARAMETERS

SUNS RAYS

RESPONSES TO LIGHT AND TEMPERATURE

SHAPE RETURNS TO ORIGINAL STATE

SURFACE DEFORMATION RESPONSE

SURFACE DEFORMATION RESPONSE


[ DESIGN I CONSCIOUS SYSTEM ]

[ THE HUMAN EYE ] A conscious sense organ, that allows vision. The pupil regulates the amount of light that enters the eye.


[ DESIGN I CONSCIOUS SYSTEM ]

[ EXTENT OF TRANSFORMATION 12 PM ]

[ 2 PM ]

[ 4 PM ]

[ 6 PM ]

[ 8 PM ]

[ INITIAL STATE 10 PM ]

EXTERIOR SKIN CONDITION AT WINDOW LOCATIONS. MATERIALS AWARENESS OF LIGHT AND TEMPERATURE AT SURFACE.
