Network of Epidermic / Kinetic / Systems

The theoretical and practical frame of this thesis pertains to the intersection of the title's concepts. In this project we will explore how kinetic architecture could be approached through the design of an organism, focusing on its epidermic nature, and how a swarm of these organisms could configure a network into the urban web. In other words, how a city network of organisms could be structured, with the main characteristic of each one being its kinetic transmutation through interactive processes. Additionally we will illustrate how the epidermic character of the organism could be maintained through its complex morphology and the integration of essential characteristics of the human skin.
