The building-scale 3D printing employs small robotic agents to build a mini version of construction structures with material that acts as a mold and “thermal insulation layer.” MIT developed this system to provide 3D printing models for building models so that architectures and scientists could better visualize and collaborate to produce and build strong, technologically advanced buildings. The technology that MIT established also allowed building utilities to be incorporated into the model so that it can accurately predict future circumstances and provide solutions to any uprising issues in the model. I found this interesting because it improves the rate of success as well as minimizes any risk of danger or negative influence on civilians’ safety. I suppose the algorithms used to generate work comes from positioning potential structures as well as generating buildings with accurate angles and arrangement of components of the structure. The creator’s artistic sensibilities are manifested in the final form because it is literally an enlarged version of the building-scale 3d printed model while guaranteeing success of any wiring or plumbing or sturdiness involved.
