Designs of the Year at the Design Museum

If you are in London you must pop into the Design Museum to see this show, grab the catalogue afterwards too (5 quid, bargain) so you have a record of all te good ideas on show. Top creatives have nominated their favourite work and this year it all comes together to make the best DOTY show yet. Check out for example this piece by Simon Heijdens

Amazing Autonomous Robots

This Post re-blogged from YetAnotherArchitect Vijay Kumar: Robots that fly … and cooperate: "Vijay and his team at MIT are developing little quadro-copters that act autonomously. They can remember and detect obstacles. The little robots can fly swarm formations and play music. Amazingly they can also autonomously construct structures which reminds me of the Gramazio & Kohler installation “Flight Assembled Architecture”.
