BIO-DYNAMIC ISLAND – SUMMER 2016



BIO-DYNAMIC ISLAND – ROBOTIC CARTOGRAPHY
SUMMER PROGRAM MARCH II 2016

Led by Julia Koerner
Instructors: Benjamin Ennemoser, Steve Lee, Marta Nowak, Peter Vikar and Eui-Sung Yi

The SUPRASTUDIO Summer Session exhibition features
twelve projects from the incoming 2016-17 M.S.AUD students. The Technology Seminar – ROBOTIC
CARTOGRAPHY and the Studio – BIO DYNAMIC ISLAND,
led by Julia Koerner, investigate emergent technologies
including 3D scanning, robotic video capturing and
digital analysis of natural artifacts on micro and macro
scales. Both literal and phenomenal investigations into
natural systems and structures are part of the linked
inductive courses. An exploration into various design
media including bio-mimicry research and generative
design morphology are included in the exhibition in the
form of additive manufactured morphologies and CNCfabricated
scaled-up topologies. Animations, videos
and VR simulations showcase ideas for architectural
and urban applications for a small-scale pavilion to
a large-scale urban design of an artificial Island in
China – Hainan Island. Students propose the possibility
of an absolute self-sustainable urbanism that can
balance and integrate the aims of culture, nature
and business to re-claim the importance of intelligent
ecology as the advancement of 21st century urbanism.

UCLA A.UD’S 2016-17 M.S.AUD PROGRAM, SUPRASTUDIO WILL BE LED BY
