Experimental Tectonics: Lecture by Roland Snooks (April 2024)
The work of Roland Snooks and the RMIT Architecture | Tectonic Formation Lab explores the architectural design implications of emerging technologies. This work develops and leverages algorithmic design, generative AI, additive manufacturing and robotic fabrication techniques to develop innovative architectural tectonics. This is a speculation, through design, on a possible future of architectural form, material and structure.
Roland Snooks is a director of the architecture practice SNOOKS + HARPER and a professor of architecture at RMIT (Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology) University where he directs the Tectonic Formation Lab. Snooks' research explores algorithmic design, generative AI, additive manufacturing and robotic fabrication. He received a PhD from RMIT and a Master in Advanced Architectural Design from Columbia University, where he studied on a Fulbright scholarship. His work has been published and exhibited widely and acquired for the permanent collections of institutions including the Centre Pompidou, FRAC and National Gallery of Victoria.
