How To Design (Almost) Anything

FoS201

Students are guided in conducting research and designing experiments, building, and testing prototypes, to arrive at a “Symbiotic Creature”, an artifact that leverages symbiosis across different systems. New topics introduced in this studio include dynamic mechanisms, materiality, physical computing, interactions, and technical aspects of design.
