Quyala I Synthetic Environments is a Laboratory based in Bangkok which conceive architecture as material practise. We conduct researches at the intersection of computational design, digital fabrication, materials science and synthetic biology and apply that knowledge to design across scales from the micro scale to the building scale. We create biologically inspired and en-gineered design fabrication tools and technologies and structures aiming to enhance the relation between natural and man-made environments.My research field, entitled Spectral Behaviours, integrates computational bacteria design strategies and Bio-Fabrica-tion techniques. This design approach enables the mediation between objects and environment; between humans and objects; and between humans and environment. Our goal is to enhance the relation between natural and man-made environments by achieving high degrees of design customization and versatility, environmental performance integration and material efficiency. We seek to establish new forms of design and novel processes of material practice at the intersection of computer science, material engineering, design and ecology, with broad applications across multiple scales.

The idea of having a space permeable exploits as much as possible two conditions: the proximity to the sea (the particular situation Cli-matic of the isle ); the presence of a large pine forest as a filter vari-able during the day and night. A vocation to the perfect swing, the vibration of wind when you touch a branch. A facade aligned with the outer, inlet filter, a privacy made through the smell of pine trees.The relationship among the houses is controlled by an algorithmic, who provide to regulate the high and distance for each on the ground.The module is designed for 6 people maximum, even if in fact it can be considered at same time two families, parents and children and the grand father family .Just one used by a family, but designed for two families simultaneously. A space living room and big kitchen will allow the family to dine together, the rooms each independent for each member, a kitchen and bathroom for each marriage. Differ-ent lifestyles require different privacy, environments so they remain separated from each other. In the case in which it was necessary a certain unit, it ensures the family to be reunited and live togheter .The house, a cube of two floors, where the core is surrounded by a corridor that has a height greater than two times the rest.This outdoor area is also the tunnel that connects all rooms and at the same time represents an area able to mitigate the breeze from the sea towards the interior. This creates a continuous gradient be-tween the space Outside, the intervening space and private space.

LIVING ALEUTIAN

The first step of our design process consisted in a bioclimatic anal-ysis. This objective definition of the framework was then integrated into a more subjective approach of space and uses in order to es-tablish the architectural scheme that will guide the design process throughout the development phase. In order to reach maximum living comfort and a sense of well-being even despite the reducedsurface, a flexible and functional furniture system will be used. Cer-tain kind of use, which are not required at the same time in everyday life , are accommodated on the same surface. The living space is designed to be open. But there is still the possibility of creating more privacy by masking off the private spaces. The architectural conceptis also reflected in the interior. Each one of the modules offers its owns possibility of use or a characteristic piece of furniture. The space is made a coherent whole by a homogenous, plain design. The furnishings are attractive of their flexibility, innovative character and user friendliness. The furniture is constructed of sustainablelight-weight building boards. So it becomes considerably lighter, which is especially important for being able to move and transport it. The surfaces of the furniture consist of white HPL (high pressure laminate).

SUMMARY_

The folly, traditionally conceived as an ornament, extrava-gance or even expression of a passing crush is here thought and designed to convey abstract concepts directly linked to the society and to its contemporary evolution. “Overthrowing bow” represents the subtle line that divides artifi ciality and nature, society and individual, to be intended, in this place, as a network of relations in which the various subjective ex-periences are the bulk of a new model of architecture. A model, where a distributed and ineffable logic of situations and experiences bring the user to multiple interpretations and replace a centralized mentality only capable to highlight a single viewpoint or thought. Essential grove catalyzes the attention to the condition of the mankind and to its evolution, projects the imaginary to the nature and to the hybrid role it has gradually assimilated. The perception of a labyrinth made of pipes, from the outside, recalls the nature and brings the user to fi nd his way. The structure is conceived as an itin-erant folly, able to modify its form according to the various exigencies. Its technologic simplicity facilitates the mounting and the disassembling, making it a mutable structure. Lastbut not least, the choice of the materials is attentive to the themes of recycle and reuse.

SUMMARY_

The interest for pneumatic structures whose shape andstability is defined by the pressure of a fluid, has allowedthe research towards the prototyping shaping fences temporalbasis ofpressurized air, whose advantage comparedto other costructing systems is the rapidity of mountingand portability.Diaira Temporary air farm has been designed for the OPEN HOUSE 2013 in Rome.In this scenario,these actions “elementary” when considered in a logic complex environmental bring out such a result. Urbanize technology, this means a more direct approach tothe knowledge of the city! What better opportunity for a continu-ous event in a public space? YES it builds a space where citizens take an active role against a backdrop technology and energy. This space to be implemented therefore requires physical and mental experience of the participant. An “Hardware” that generates feed-back loop designed to not be consumed immediately but need atime and a processo.Nell ‘approach to what we consider context, it is historical, geographical, psychological, etc ...the key action is the “Situadness” or consider the subject, “interactive” in a context. The analysis is done using a definition of agents, their actions and, above all, spheres of influence they exert in context.Diaria project is a temporary installation thought for the city. The inner space and the skin work like a filter that oxigenizes the air. The proj-ect tries to think new ways to act on the city’s public space.

SUMMARY_Forecasting logics aren’t any longer able to predict natural catastrophes, those being generated not by natural spasms but resulting from political, industrial and human conjunctions, ... ‘Angry’ biotopes. Gaïa’s furies are countless : Katrina, El Niño, Jeanne, Thomas and Nargis, Xynthia, Ewiniar, Fuku-jima... a series of devastations and uncertainties that our seismographs cannot prevent. Elements are raging and the gods, always ready to forgive human madness, suddenly seem powerless in front of nature’s infernal rebellion.This short fiction film gives a double approach to Bangkok’s flood.That of the man who dominates his subject, and soon be-comes himself object of this subject.We have to observe from both sides of the mirror, not in a moralist approach, but with contiguity and ambiguity..The short film evolves from fixed plan in the first scenes, to hand-held camera before the bascule point, towards a sub-jective vision in the second part of the story. This subjective fish-eye vision is not only suggested by the camera manoeu-vre (point de view height, lenses, camera movements, etc.) but also devised in the editing phase, generating mental im-ages, physio-psychological succession of visual and emo-tional inputs...

SUMMARY_The scenario is developing a strategy to infiltrate an abandoned tropical forest, in the middle of bkk through the principle of timidity (trees’ crown shyness phenomenon), in a mimesis of the phero-monal foliage behavior.

The existing trees are used to metabolize the museum “alien”, made by the intricacy of a multitude of bio-components, issued from na-ture’s recycled waste…computational growth in the negative void.

This cradle to cradle scenario re-negociate the relationship between alive and dead ghosts, between eros & tanatos… the timidity symptom is a chemistry, an allelopathic app aratus to re-inject a degree of dispute, of conflict between ‘proto and crypto’ natures

GEOMETRY / Scanning 3D of all the trees…three months of duty! To get 5 gigas bytes of Point Cloud…micro station for transferring point could in millions of Rhino point…Python to generate attractors, repulsor effect and reveal the negative, the void of the forest, where something could infiltrate… approximation of surface…3Dprint and modeling in synthetic plaster to blur the positivism of the scientific process… 3D scanning by Kinect…and distribution and cluster population on surface by Python-Rhino…grasshopper shaking…Design of the intricable component, test of cnc milling scale one by Kuka-Agilus…and preparation of the final aluminum Mold, again by CNC….dripping of bio-plastic for 15 000 units…

The research on geometry is a mathematical development revealing a shape according to the existing obstacles surrounding it (the trees – calculation of distances to trunk, branch, foliage), followed by an equation to define a Timidity relation between the limits of the emerg-ing shapelessness and the contour of the existing morphologies.

ALLELOPATHY/PHYTOHORMONE / Ethymologically…..“to suffer from each other”> Active or passive effect of chemicals released into the environment which influences other organisms. We include in the bio-plastic of 15000 Components some D.E.P. / diethyl phthalate (amember of the group of phthalic acid esters known as phthalates). D.E.P. belongs to the low molecular weight (lmw) group with a molecular weight of <250 dalton and comparatively low viscosity and high volatility. it has a faint disagreeable odor and can be transferred from the plastics that contains it, creating a pher-omonalallelopathy between the museum and the jungle, to keep them at distance from each other (around 0.9 meter), in a dynamic antagonism.

BAMBO BONSAI ING

Feral Child _ Biennale of Art Singapore 2013

We were not able to extract the feral child found in the deepness of Primary Thai Jungle without the minimum environmental precaution. The group of scientists in charge of her re-adaptation decided to avoid jumping into a Mowgli syndrome, and instead placed her in a human education settlement. We are directly working on her bio-topes biotope in which she survived, in the deepness of the forest.

The feral child has trouble learning to walk upright after walking on fours all her life, and displays a reasonable lack of interest in the human activity around her. She seems mentally affected and has al-most insurmountable trouble learning a human language. But even with this high degree of acculturation, she is wildly prepared to sur-vive in a hostile situation.

She is a female, of around 20 year old. We are not in the situation to trace her provenance and real identity, but her DNA is showing a kind of creoleness, being 30% Caucasoid and 60% Mongoloid, 10% Negroid.

Even if her behavior seems to be plaintive and fearful, even if you can hear whispering sounds reminiscent of jungle animals groans, she is safe.

Please do not disturb her, and do not feed her. We are not in a zoo. She has to be respected as the last wild anomaly in natural environment.

SUMMARY_Deriving from a desire to explore the deeper meanings of mechan-ical systems based on natural phenomena (in this case, bamboo growth), this project intends to develop a robotic tool to create a “Techno-Vegetative” bamboo living system, which can be scaled and adapted for a variety of scientific, artistic and cultural purposes. The robotic tool will build a “natural-artificial” woven shelter, which will enable individuals and societies to explore the possibility of a symbiotic life within a forest habitat.Using the vertical entropy of bamboo, a characteristic unique to this genus, the mechanical, robotic tool, and a specifically generated set of rules to regulate the behaviour of the robotic system (which will be known as the “task swarm process”), the process will ma-nipulate the bamboo living system from a series of random, vertical plants into a structure that can be adapted for use.The symbiosis between plants and technology manifested in this literally living architecture will create and articulate a dynamic relation-ship between technology and “green” as an embedded process, as a transgender and chimeric hypothesis which renegotiates the relationship between man and nature. The end result will be not simply the construction of a project, but the design of a process that can be redesigned and re-articulated for future, innovative uses.

On Going Research I Almost all structures ever created by humans have either been lifeless, or synthetic. Stone is inanimate, wood is the dead limbs of trees, and even mud huts are only safe and warm because they have been deprived of life-giving water that would otherwise support an insect and bacterial microcosm. We persuade ourselves that our homes are living structures by virtue of the life we breathe into them by living in them and by collecting the artefacts of our lives within. However, in reality, the structures remain devoid of any life independent of our human spirit. Similarly, when humans use bamboo to create useful tools and objects, it has heretofore inevitably involved killing the plant, either by heating it, or by introducing hot vapour. In order to make bamboo useful to us,we deprive it of life. Bamboo Bonsai-ing seeks to resolve both of these issues in a single project, by using robotics. By retaining the life of the bamboo and working with its amenity to manipulation, this project hopes to use robotic actuators to producem structures that are liveable for humans, and themselves living. In so doing, Bamboo Bonsai-ing hopes to produce technology that will make it possible to live within a living structure, and to use technology as a force to connect us with nature, rather than to divide us from it.

Current technology for bending bamboo relies on either the introduction or hot vapour, or of dry heat to the plant, which results in the death of the limb of bamboo, and a necessarily lifeless final product, whatever it may be. Theprocess proposed in this project aims to preserve and maintain the life of the whole plant while inducing change and engaging the plant for use, possibly in very complex and sophisticated shapes and structures.

To achieve this end, the project aims to:1.) Understand the growing pattern of the plant species(in this case,Bamboo)2.) Define a task target (that is, define the design that the task swarmwill perform)3.) Assign this task to the robotic elements and assign each element aplant upon which to act4.) Synchronise all the robotic elements to perform their task such thattogether they achieve design target.5.) The Bamboo Bonsa-ing element is adapted and improved to produce afunctioning task swarm system prototype.

I would like to express my very great appreciation to “New Territories institute for contingent scenarios (http://www.new-territories.com/index.htm)”, allowing me to work on Bamboo Bonsai-ing beta version in the occasion of the Singapore Biennale 2013. I would like especially tank Francois Roche and Camille Lacadee to release the project for further development as an academic/postgraduate research.

SPECTRAL BEHAVIOURS

The intent of this research is to jointly investigate fundamental manufacturing processes on Bacterial Cellu-lose nanocomposite. Perishable, live and mutating bio-material which favor one of the essential dimension regard the survival and growth of every living being. The main purpose with the material will be to produce a set of systems and methods for the production, growing and control of 3-D architectures and Morphol-ogies of nano-cellulose Bio materials produced trought bio-fabrication processes. Experiments on natural materials as on artificial ones form a eulogy to decomposition, an ode to the decay and the matter’s capacity to transform things in continual renewal living cycle. The living matter choosen for the research is the carries in it the potential mutations and deterioration involving a continual change. Material that aim at stretching a moment’s duration trough different strategies of survival. Spectral Behaviors[1] will fit in to a cycle of living-matter and create a sort of anti-time ritual as metaphor of growth with biological cycles, conditions of production and values of creation. Using the action of a bacteria will be developed a set of mutation systems as natural/synthetic spaces starting from a Bio-fabrication process as bio-synthetic spectrum to a Bio-functionalization as general condition of acceptancy and repulsion from the organism. Therefore the multiplicity of possibilities created engage us to look closer to these metamorphosis which remind us a symbiotic mutation of different apparently domains.

notes:[1] “Considering a living matter as specter is a mode of being that changes sensibilities, behavior and social relationship as whole, beyond technical advises. In this general perspective all the meanings of the word “Spectrality” reflect that word “Specter” has many echoes; disappearing, ghostly reality. A Bodily presence start to fade or lose consistency causing a corresponding fear of transgression, dispersion, wondering, loss of prohibition, the rise of a new exorcism. It also echo of masks doubles and multiples. ( procedure of Identification ). Spectrality is not exactly the destruction or disappearance of the subject. Spectrality is dispersion of the subject, giving us a plurality of positions and discontinuity of functions, diversity of the internal components including the unconscious one. There is a sort of ambiguity on creating a Specter and a Spectrum ( mechanism with optical properties), a play of appearances, where the Pseudonyms play on Metamorphoses not on ghosts. It might be better to speak about Mutation, in the play of appearances someone becomes another with a certain awareness of the game – Decay, Diffraction, evaporation.”

BACTERIAL CELLULOSE PRODUCTION_Acetobacter Xilynum is the bacteria which secrete cellulose as part of its metabolism of glucose. The bacteria consumes sugar and builds a cellulose fiber structure around any given form. Since the process take place in a nutrition liquid, the wet material can be dried and treated later on, resulting a fully biodegrable, high strenght nanocomposite.

Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a unique nanofibrous biomaterial which can have applications in many engineering fields. BC possesses excellent mechanical properties and biocompatibility and can be engineered in various forms from nano to macro scales. BC based nanocomposites can be manipulated to improve their properties and/or functionalities. Such materials can be categorized as high-strength materials as well as materials for plant biomimicking, bio-medical, electrically conductive, catalysis, optical, luminescent, pro-ton conductive, separating, antimicrobial, thermo-responsive, and other applications.

For controlling 3D shape, thickness and architecture of nano-cellulose biomaterials produced by bacteria using biofabri-cation, we propose, in this research, a new fermentation process. This process involve control of the rate of production of biomaterial by bacteria achieved by meticulous control of the addition of fermentation media using a microfluidic system comprising a syringe pump that adds a small amount of media to a porous floating ring, which slowly diffuses media into continuously growing cellulose. The cellulose grows at the air liquid interface, forming a new layer of cellulose inside the floating ring. This device is made of Teflon makes possible to distribute medium into growing culture without disturbing growing pellicle (fig.4).ring.

An investigation on multiple ways to fabricate synthetic composites by generating novel morphogenitic mech-anisms in bacteria which link different status of matter. Natural polymers are much better suited as biomaterials due to generally better biocompatibility and improved tissues integration. If we refer to “ Tissue ingineering” in medical field,scaffolds are used to define materials with a very defined morphology. “ Spectral Behaviours” seek to use this unique approach to create scaffolding matrices in architecture to host and provide support for the generation of others natural tissues.

Specifically, calcium Hydroxyapatite/BC nanocomposites are obtained by introducing the HAp in its mineral phase into the bacteria culture medium during the formation of BC nanofibers, in order to obtain a material very close to bones.

BIO FABRICATION_METHOD 1

PVA (Polyvinyl Alcohol) `Preview, control and modify a series of changes that the nanocomposite material undergo as it pass from the begin-ning of a given developmental stage (bio-fabrication phase) to the solution of its methabolic pathways. These changes are defined by behavioral and environmental factors (both natural and artificial). These factors and the application of preserva-tion strategies define the life, decay and death of the material.After the first Year of Research where have been carefully analyzed the conditions of Production of Bacterial Cellulose Nanocomposite “Spectral Behaviour” will focus the work on the creation of BC based Bio -Composites materials.Modify the material behaviour after engineering original BC into BC based nanocomposites to obtain different properties or additional functionalities in several applications. These ap-plication fields can be categorized into: conductive materials, luminescent materials, magnetic materials, air filtering materi-als, thermo-responsive materials and many others;

BIO FABRICATION_METHOD 2

2.1 Reinforced Matrix Composites

A variety of methods have been utilized to fabricate BC re-inforced composites. Among them resin infiltration, in-situ, self- assembling, dispersion and casting can be regarded as most widely used methods for the purpose.The bacteria strain Acetobacter Xilynum has been found to grow preferably on the surfaces of natural fiber or certain poly-mer molecules rather than freely in the medium. Natural plant-based fibers or certain polymers (e.g. starch, soy resin, or poly-vinyl alcohol (PVA)) provide ideal substrates for the bacteria to grow on. The fermentation process in the presence of natural fibers or polymers, therefore, can lead to the formation of BC based hybrids or nanocomposites. The in situ self-assembly fabrication for preparation of BC based nanocomposites has attracted much attention due to its convenient and unique na-ture.

AMSTERDAM MUSEM PAVILLION

In biology, a spore is a unit of asexual reproduction that may be adapted for dispersal and for survival, often for extend-ed periods of time, in unfavorable conditions. By contrast, gametes are units of sexual reproduction. Spores form part of the life cycles of many plants, algae, fungi and protozoa.[1] In bacteria, spores are not part of a sexual cycle but are resistant structures used for survival under unfavourable con-ditions.

Spores are usually haploid and unicellular and are produced by meiosis in the sporangium of a diploid sporophyte. Un-der favourable conditions the spore can develop into a new organism using mitotic division, producing a multicellular ga-metophyte, which eventually goes on to produce gametes. Two gametes fuse to form a zygote which develops into a new sporophyte. This cycle is known as alternation of gen-erations.

The spores of seed plants, however, are produced internal-ly and the megaspores, formed within the ovules and the microspores are involved in the formation of more complex structures that form the dispersal units, the seeds and pollen grains.Global GeometryThe propopsed structured has been made by usiing the fermentation of Bacterial Cellulose as a path Creator in which the spores system was created.

3D-BIO PRINTER (ALGINATE SCAFFOLD FOR BACTERIAL CELLULOSE )

Alginate mold can be prepared by printing drops of calci-um chloride solution in Alginate solution and vice versa. The mold was printed and placed in the container bacteria sus-pension taken from bacteria preculture was added to cover completely the alginate mold.The bacteria gradually grow up along the printed alginate structure that had been placed into the culture; incorporating it.

DIY - Mendel Max 1.5 _ Improvements

MendelMax is based on the Prusa Mendel, and keeps its best parts. The Prusa Mendel kept the frame of the Sells Mendel, but fixed the problems in the X,Y and Z axes. Men-delMax 1.0 builds on that by largely keeping the current XYZ axes, but completely redesigning the frame. In addition to the increased rigidity, the printer is much easier to assemble than a standard Prusa. Even an inexperienced builder should have no trouble building the whole frame in an evening, two at most. And along with the easy assembly comes easy hackability. Almost any part on the bot can be removed with just a few screws, so swapping out literally any part on the bot is now a trivial operation.The printer has been built interely as DIY proyect work on has been improved the followings things:1)Large Volume Printing 400mmx 400mm x400mm2)Large Hot Bed 400mmx 400mm3) Marvin Firmware, modification according to the size of the priinter.
