Exhibition at PHASE 2 Gallery, 8/09/09 - 2/10/09, 8 Fitzroy St, London W1T 4BJ

Digital Hinterlands features a diverse range of work by some of the best recent architecture graduates from London's Architectural Association, Bartlett , Royal College of Art, and University of Westminster. Curated by Ruairi Glynn in consultation with Arup, this exhibition revealed how the latest computational design and rapid manufacturing processes are providing new ways of understanding and designing space. From built models, 1:1 fragments, material experiments and installations, to interactive devices, virtual worlds and robotics, the exhibition presented the ideas of a wave of young designers, operating on the speculative hinterlands of architectural design.

The work featured in the exhibition has been published alongside interviews, conversations and articles written by leading London Architects in Digital Architecture: Passages Through Hinterlands

Vascular Attraction Mediator: A series of art gallery pavilions and horse stables set within Park Ibirapuera, Sao Paulo, Brazil. The project investigates undulating and sculptural movement sequences, finding a way to synchronise these with environmental mediation through the attraction agents of the prevailing sun, wind and circulation flows. Thomas combines different parametric methodologies and digital environmental simulation techniques to develop, choreograph and calibrate organisations that can create novel spatial effects while mediating the light, wind, people and horses with a high level of algorithmic control.
