Intelligent kinetic systems arise from the convergence of three key elements: kinetic engineering, embedded computation and adaptable architecture. At the intersection of these areas exists an area of interactive environments tuned to adaptability. The course will address kinetic function as a technological design strategy for building types and objects that are efficient in form, and inherently flexible with respect to various contexts and a diversity of purposes. The course will provide both theoretical and practical foundations in the technological tools necessary for the physical modelling of systems that can demonstrate responsive behaviours:
