Harry-- --Master of Architecture Thesis 2005-2006-- A Thesis submitted to the Division of Research and Advanced Studies of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARCHITECTURE in the School of Architecture and Interior Design of the College of Design, Architecture, Art, & Planning 22 May 2006 by Sean Clark Harry B. Arts in Architecture, Miami University, 2001 Committee Chairs: Michael McInturf Jay Chatterjee :ABSTRACT: Society is immersed in a myriad of techno-social processes and interchanges that augment our physical environment by adapting to our needs. Architecture’s reciprocation of these adaptations remains comparatively unnoticeable. Technology has greatly influenced design techniques in architecture, though the full potential of these capabilities have yet to be realized. Architects can produce precise virtual building models, and experiment with kinematics and motion conceived form(s), though their products, for the most part, remain static. Thus, they do not physically reflect the evolution of perpetual processes inherent in a design process, or the built environment. This thesis seeks to develop a synthesis between current architectural kinematics and aspects of emerging technologies from other fields of exploration to create responsive kinetic systems. An architecture in which surfaces and/or structures move according to the way humans do. An architecture that is capable of adapting to our changing needs and those of technology.
