Abstract Armchair: Trippy TRON Film-Inspired Art Furniture
Cinema fans awaiting the new TRON with great anticipation may enjoy doing so in this objected designed around the surreal landscapes for which the classic movie is well known. Whether it will be a comfortable wait is another question entirely.
Video: Experiment process mode
Rasmus Svingel shared with us a movie of a model he put together, part of his current work at Aarhus School of Architecture in Denmark. It’s an investigation of space and program diversity through movement. The model arose from a digital model that were processed into an anolog structure.
The concept is a structure which, depending on needs, climate, etc. can unfold and contract. The model consists of unhardened metal rods that are soldered together and then covered with coarse paper. The moving joints are made by the use of brass tubings. The movement is controlled by pulling carbon wires after which rubber bands resets the entire operation back to the starting position.
