LIFORM: Living Megastructures
Installation and process design, 2017-current
LIFORM is an ongoing exploration of natural intelligence and the creation of soft megastructures. It investigates how new forms of interspecies collaboration between humans, mycelium, and potentially machines could evolve.
Because mycelium weaves its magical networks underground, its intelligence remains a mystery. This project aims to bring bioorganisms to the aerial environment, maintaining the essential conditions for them to thrive and allowing us to learn from them.
Designed ecosystems inside incubators are the starting point for living megastructures, an experimental frame that leads us to imagine the bigger picture of the future. The resulting morphologies are meticulously documented to build a library of unique connections and growth patterns inspiring new architectural forms and strategies.
