Andrew is working with OCEAN.CN in a research to challenge the notion of generic urbanism for the city to be dynamic, multiplicitous, and adaptable.  The scope of work started with an exhibition platform to showcase 3d printer prototypes of numerous customised urban configuration.  The piece was created in a solid editing software with a pattern created with the prototypes set up as attractors.  The piece was then built in Xi An, China, shipped to Hong Kong for the Biennale in West Kowloon Cultural District.

The work on PPRD was then continued for another exhibition at the Venice Biennale 2010.  The scope of our work was to study the possibility of multi-levels public podiums through a field of building masses.  This is to generate a series of differentiated connectivity diagrams.
