		<title>LaN at KVArch</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This past Friday, Sheila Kennedy asked me to come to her office to present some of the work that I&#8217;ve been doing for them this summer.  Also present was a delegate from Live Architecture Network who are doing really cool things.
There were presentations from her office including Patricia Gruits talking about an interactive light [...]]]></description>

		<title>BuzzBack</title>
		<description><![CDATA[BuzzBack is a project I&#8217;ve been working on with the responsive environments group in MIT&#8217;s Media Lab.
The project will consist of about a dozen small buzzers, each equipped with a microphone and a speaker.  Each one will autonomously listen to it&#8217;s environment through the microphone and, based on what it hears, it will sing [...]]]></description>

		<title>Seed Cathedral</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is a video of Thomas Heatherwick&#8217;s UK Pavilion for the Shanghai Expo.  Well conceived, well executed.  Good stuff:  (Slow loading but wait for it)

		<title>HashTable</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is a project that Xiaoji and I have been working on for quite some time.  

HashTable implements a design process whereby algorithms, geometry and digital fabrication come together in service of material reuse.  We see a great deal of waste in fabrication shops and in this we see an opportunity for sustainable [...]]]></description>

		<title>joint tectonics in place</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A quick snapshot of how the projection project is progressing.  This is four of the 10 pieces arranged in a such a way that I can start to think about how they&#8217;ll fit together.  

I&#8217;ve been working on concrete form-work system that is driving me nuts.  I&#8217;m actually batting around the idea [...]]]></description>

		<title>QuarC Necklace</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have been working on this project for a while and I can finally reveal it.  

This is an offshoot of a project I did a couple of years ago involving quasicrystals (qc) which was published in Pidgin Magazine issue 6.  The piece originated as a 3D model :

The geometry of which was [...]]]></description>

		<title>Turing Machine IRL</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sorry that I&#8217;ve been so long without a post but, you know, busy busy. Via Good Coders Code, this is a Turing Machine running the Busy Beaver Problem with as super cute font and an awesome 60&#8217;s science aesthetic.

		<title>Form Follows Sunlight</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This semester I&#8217;m TAing a studio with Stephen Cassell from ARO.  We&#8217;re focusing on getting the students to use Grasshopper to practice precision form-finding through the actualization of solar effects.

It&#8217;s still early and the students are already producing really good work.  You can keep up with their work [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
Image by Varvara Toulkeridou.
The last two weeks I&#8217;ve been co-teaching a Rhino-Scripting class with Skylar Tibbits and Steffen Reichert to help introduce algorithmic design to some of the non-computation architects at MIT.  We&#8217;ve set up a blog with much of the students work here.
The students all produced really impressive work and I&#8217;m proud to [...]]]></description>

		<title>More on Parallelepiped Packing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Working out how I want to instantiate the parallelepipeds.  I must say that I rather fancy the filleted option below:

So I&#8217;m beginning to think about casting them and laser-cutting some dummies to work on layout.
