Sargasso - Philip Beesley & team will launch new installation during Luminato! Can Not Wait!

Media_httpwwwluminato_thjxb

Description:

"A visionary architectural pioneer creates a responsive landscape to infuse one of downtown's busiest spaces with astonishing new life.

A worldwide pioneer in the fast-growing field of responsive architecture, Beesley and his team of collaborators pose the question “could architecture come alive?” In reply he creates spaces that dissolve into forest-like hovering fields, kin to primitive life-forms within dense jungles and ocean reefs. These responsive environments offer bodily immersion and wide-flung perception. In this new installation, Beesley combines visionary design with high-tech digital engineering to turn an everyday public space into a world of wonder.
Sargasso refers to the vast, tangled floating masses of living matter and cast-off material that drifts at the centre of the Atlantic. The environment within the sweeping atrium of the Allen Lambert Galleria makes a vast canopy, a sanctuary that slowly shifts and floats above the city. The building is no longer an entity of steel, glass, and stone but a participant in a symbiotic artistic event that shapes the nature of the environment itself.

Commissioned by Luminato."

In our highly digital society, the whole physical environments made intelligent by advanced materials and embedded robotics will actually augment daily lives.

Great comparison! I like the way you work. The nature of the environment itself is difficult to understand! Visit http://proofreading-services.org/proofreader.php when you need to hand in an essay or any other academic work.
