Sponsored by Intel, this collaboration awards soft behaviors to medium payload industrial robots. The resulting human-robot control platform promotes dynamic environments of design and production that eschew conventional modes of industrial and architectural production. In his upcoming exhibition and workshop\u00a0<em>Datadraw<\/em>\u00a0(Wedge Gallery, Woodbery University; with Jordan squires) Wolf teams up with Dato, the Seattle-based machine learning software group.\u00a0<em>Datadraw<\/em>\u00a0builds on the data-driven output produced by the architect. Exploring Dato\u2019s toolkit, the architect\u2019s data-mesh is used to train different machine learning models, from dedicated neural networks to Deep Learning classifiers, in order to parse out varied conditions, such as surface tessellation, decor and affect, apertures and mass to ground relations.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3079\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3079\" style=\"width: 625px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3079 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Beyond_0049.jpg?resize=625%2C358&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Beyond_0049\" width=\"625\" height=\"358\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Beyond_0049.jpg?resize=1024%2C587&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Beyond_0049.jpg?resize=300%2C172&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Beyond_0049.jpg?resize=768%2C440&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Beyond_0049.jpg?resize=624%2C358&amp;ssl=1 624w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Beyond_0049.jpg?w=1392&amp;ssl=1 1392w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Beyond_0049.jpg?w=2088&amp;ssl=1 2088w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3079\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Beyond Environment, Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions, September 4 through November 9, 2014; with Emanuele Piccardo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3080\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3080\" style=\"width: 625px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3080 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Datadraw.jpg?resize=625%2C313&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Datadraw\" width=\"625\" height=\"313\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Datadraw.jpg?resize=1024%2C512&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Datadraw.jpg?resize=300%2C150&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Datadraw.jpg?resize=768%2C384&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Datadraw.jpg?resize=624%2C312&amp;ssl=1 624w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Datadraw.jpg?w=1392&amp;ssl=1 1392w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Datadraw.jpg?w=2088&amp;ssl=1 2088w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3080\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Datadraw, mesh to data classification process visualization, upcoming, Wedge Gallery, Woodbery University; with Jordan squires<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>http:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interview\/amitwolf.mp3Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | TuneIn | RSS | Click here to join mailing listAmit Wolf is an innovator in the field of design, a writer and a curator.
