…adapts the ‘Artefact’ Project developed by MODEL, previously exhibited in gallery Gallery 70 at the V&A, London. Artefact and Recombinating Architecture both take the fluidity of objects and architectures as their starting point.

The Artefact and its interpretation panel slowly evolve as visitors to the website play with it and reinterpret its meaning. At the core of the Artefact Project is a 3D database drawn from the V&A Collection. For the duration of the show the ‘Artefact’ evolves through a generative breeding of this ‘genetic’ information. At some point in its evolution the ‘Artefact’ will become the collection.

Recombinating Architecture can be downloaded form the Downloads section.
