The Actuated Matter Workshop took place at Zurich University of the Arts from July 25. - 29. 2011 and was co-run with London based Loop.pH design studio. During the workshop the twenty international participants developed a speculative model for membrane structures that exhibit properties of sensitivity, resilience, and decay. By physically engaging with the behaviors of active materials, they experimented with the threshold between the electronic and mechanic, the analog and the digital. The workshop followed a do-it-yourself approach and led to the development of sonic, luminous and moving modules that populated and activated the environment. The main structure was based on a three-dimensional ecology of interlinked loops, made from optical fibers, that formed a lightweight system with enough flexibility to become actuated but sufficient stiffness to support a multitude of components. The production of the active elements, electroluminescent screens, electro-active polymers and flexible audio panels, was strongly driven by the curiosity and engagement of an interdisciplinary team of participants who had little or no previous experience of working with such materials. The workshop showed that highly sophisticated materials and structures could be emerge through participatory and collaborative strategies, thus reflecting our goal of developing an alternative, less rigid architecture of the future as a more connected, interlaced, entangled, responsive and responsible world.
More 'round' but not much 'hair'... Local sketch group is visiting the zoo soon so I'm looking at ape anatomy, not that I expect the chimps will stay still for me.
The hairless ape is in Faber-Castel PITT sanguine and black oil-base pencils. Roz Stendhal's online workshop deals with fold-out pages this week, so attached a fold-out page for the facial muscles, revealing the rest of the skull when folded out. Portrait and skull were sketched, cut and pasted onto a prepared ground of wash of acrylic paint.

20th MAY, LONDON – Linda Rising delivers her talk on the power of the placebo. Is there some of that placebo effect in our successes with agile? Could it be that all the results are really a matter of proper expectation? See the SkillsCast (film, code, slides) at: skillsmatter.com/podcast/agile-testing/placebo-or-real-so...

Water is a scarce resource, and it will be even scarcer in the future. We drink it, use it to process and cook food, or to cool things down. It is essential in terms of sanitation and hygiene, and even has cultural and ceremonial uses. But agriculture is the biggest user of water, and modern technology has made agriculture even thirstier. Yet efficient use of water is not only about technologies. This issue of Farming Matters looks at how this finite resource is shared within households, communities, watersheds, countries and regions. It shows practical experiences and background information on how negotiation for water happens in different parts of the world – and how this ensures that water reaches all users.
