ABSTRACT
Biological flesh is a medium for communication and expression that works on a microscopic scale. Ultra-thin membranes operate within an elaborate network of affiliations between their atomic computational logic and their context. As time advances, new discoveries force evolution to adjust its rules. Life, then, takes the form of animate bodies created "from the bottom up." A scripted strategy works as a feedback loop, readjusting its own genetic material to find ecological equilibrium between itself and its surroundings. The architecture becomes a structural analog to the idea of life as an emergent field which develops in response to the fear of dying (thanataphobia). Growth or decay, lifting or peeling, pinching or folding, lubricity or plasticity—a topological blend of expressions works to unite and separate bodies. These concentric bodies grow by spinning, lifting, and dilating elliptical units, which then become the platform for generation of a bottom-up architecture, responsive and localized.
