Cross-disciplinary Prototyping: Pedagogical Frameworks for Integrating Biological Analogies into Design Courses (2011)
article⁄Cross-disciplinary Prototyping: Pedagogical Frameworks for Integrating Biological Analogies into Design Courses (2011)
abstract⁄The increasing use of digital tools within the architectural curriculum dictates a necessity for critically approaching technology beyond its perception as a ’tool’, towards the creation of a ‘method’. This paper proposes the use of discrete components, such as biology, computation and fabrication to build theoretical frameworks which inform design ’experiments’ inviting the participation of the enduser through incorporation of kinetic devices. This is discussed with reference to a recently designed course, making an attempt to assess its strengths and potential as they relate to integration.
