NERI OXMAN: HONEYBEES, FIBREBOTS AND NATURE REBOOTED
Neri Oxman is a force of nature in most possible ways. Designer, architect, conceptual artist, synthetic biologist and star player at MIT Media Lab, Oxman is heralding a new age of bio-informed design and hacked natural processes. She calls it ‘Material Ecology’; we call it, potentially, an Earthsalving paradigm shift, an organic alternative to the waste, dirt and sharp edges of traditional making and building. Inside this issue, Oxman talks us through the ideas driving her Mediated Matter research lab – a team of designers, architects, data whizzes, programmers, molecular biologists and more – and their projects. Much of her work to date has been deliberately dazzling but Oxman is about to move from speculation to application. And the ideas in these pages will start to get real.
