Critical Practice, a cluster of artists, researchers and academics hosted by Chelsea College of Art and Design has recently commissioned Ola Wasilkowska and Michal Piasecki to design a temporary spatial intervention for their Parade event. The event took place on 21-23 May, 2010 at Rootstein Hopkins Parade Ground in London. The structure, called Assemblage in [...]

Above are a couple of pictures showing manufacturing process of Evolve Ring Silver, commissioned and distributed by Fluid Forms and co-designed with Krystian Kwiecinski. The manufacturing process begins with a wax 3d print of a positive form. Then a rubber mold is created with the use of the print and once it is ready the [...]

Evolve rings where commissioned and are distributed by Fluid Forms. I have co-designed them together with Krystian Kwiecinski and they are available for purchase since today. They where designed with an aid of an artificial selection in genetic algorithm (GA). I have developed the phenotype together with Krystian and then wrote a purpose-built GA tool [...]

Aleksandra Wasilkowska invited Michal Piasecki to collaborate on the design of “Unusually Rare Events / Distribution of Noovantgarde” exhibition in Warsaw’s Centre of Contemporary Arts (CSW). Detailed description of the exhibition, written by it’s curator, Lukasz Ronduda, is available from CSW. You can find a short excerpt below: “Extremely Rare Events / Distribution of the [...]

File 2 Factory Continuum workshops are a result of cooperation between a couple of European architectural schools and industry partners. The Bartlett and TU Delft are among the collaborators. Sean Hanna was the facilitator of the workshop from the side of The Bartlett. The first workshop from the series took place in Lyon in September [...]

Previously I have written in general about Creative Coding / Laser Cutting session organized by Fluid Forms. Now it’s time to write about what have I actually done during those 2 days. I have focused on the engraving feature of 500 speedy laser cutter. The software driving it has a capacity to read raster images [...]

The video above is the final presentation of my second term programming project at the Msc Adaptive Architecture and Computation at the Bartlett, UCL. Underneath you can find a detailed description of the software as well as some photos of phenotypes fabricated for the 2nd term final exhibition which took place at Bartlett’s Wates House [...]

I have started working on a genetic algorithm which breeds object suitable for laser cutting. So far I’m only using artificial selection for the choice of most fit individuals. User is able to define the amount of time which the object will take to cut on a specific laser cutter. This value then serves as [...]
