Designer and innovator, Alisa Andrasek is working on the convergence of design, computer science and exponential technologies. She is bringing AI and robotics to the forefront of architectural design and construction. The founder of Biothing, an award winning design laboratory; a partner of Bloom Games; and co-founder of AI Build, Andrasek is Professor of Design Innovation at RMIT, prior to which she directed an award winning program in advanced architectural design at UCL in London and Wonderlab research. Her work has been exhibited at the Centre Pompidou Paris, New Museum NY, Storefront NY, FRAC Collection Orleans, TB-A21 Vienna, Beijing and Sydney Biennial, among others.
Coming out of Andrasek’s research on high resolution microstructures that are information-rich, co-designed with algorithms and AI, and built by robots, this mathematized cloud resonates complexity of cloud formations. The vectorised swarm is captured through n-dimensional architectural fabric, generating dynamic interference patterns, drifts and ruptures in visibility, pulling visitors like an invisible gravity force through an awe-inspiring experience.
