The Wandering Factory project relocates production directly to where it is needed, by equipping a robotic arm with an industrial 3D printer and mounting it onto an electric, tracked unmanned rover. Once there, it can autonomously fabricate objects using recycled materials, having adapted individually to the environment and the constraints of the chosen site. The system is the result of a two-month interdisciplinary collaboration among institutions, with the goal of creating a proof-of-concept for the future local fabrication. By using only products that are presently commercially available, brought together in a minimum amount of time, we showcase that the technology to make production mobile, urban, and flexible already exists – it just has to be used.

Merlot wasn't intented to be, she was a factory girl that was going to donate her hair and eyemech and was going to be sold as parts but then... she arrived with such perfect eyechips, such great hair... her makeup was not the best though, so I decided to use for her Peppermint's faceplates, as she was going anyway and new lashes... her hair reminds me of red wine...

Thanks to Giorgio and Ioanna for this!

Ice factory. 1900-1 with extension factory of 1907-8 and later alterations. By WF Cott, consulting engineer, for the Great Grimsby Ice Company Limited. Red brick with blue brick and ashlar dressings. Slate and glazed roofs; copper domes on north unit. Chamfered blue brick plinth. Approximately rectangular on plan, comprising 2 linked factories separated by a passage (formerly carrying a railway), cutting across at an angle.... HISTORY: built following the amalgamation of the Grimsby Ice Company with the Co-operative Ice Company. The factory supplied ice for fish packing. The overhead gantries on the Gorton Street front carried ice into the dockside fish-landing building opposite. Ceased production 1990. The Grimsby Ice Company was one of Grimsby's leading fishing companies, and also built the Fisherlads' Home, for fishing apprentices, in Convamore Road (qv). This ice factory illustrates Grimsby's importance as the world's foremost fishing centre in the earlier C20. This building is understood to be the earliest remaining ice factory in the UK. Furthermore it is believed to be the sole survivor, complete with its machinery, from this period. EH Listing

Abandoned Factory II, taken on the Canon XS with The Canon 50mm 1.8 II. ISO 400, F 5.0, Flash off.

Visited this slate factory on my last day in and around Luxembourg. There used to be a slate quarry nearby and in this factory they worked with the slate to make rooftiles.

It has been abandoned for years, but still a lot of old machinery to see.

Visited this location in September 2011.
