Design by behavior – paradigm shift from biomimetic towards morphogenetic, artistic concepts ruling swarm behavior.

rese arch organized a symposium made of short lectures followed by short discussions with the speakers. The event will took a form of a friendly gathering, an occasion to meet, network and update each other on what we have been recently doing and have a chance to discuss each other’s work in person.

The speeches revolved around the phenomena of emergence, behaviour simulation and conscious complex systems in the design and fabrication process in the disciplines of architecture, design and spatial art.
