Unruly Intelligences: Body, Tools, AI: Exhibition opening and lecture

Design tools shape how we think, move, and make.

“Unruly Intelligences: Body, Tools, AI” brings attention to computational design processes in architecture and design that tries to expand beyond the computer screen, foregrounding the designer’s body as an active site of intelligence and creativity. Drawing from research at the intersection of architecture, AI, CAD, craft, and human-computer interaction, the lecture and exhibition present experimental projects spanning real-time VR sketching, generative AI workflows, robotic fabrication, and sensor-based systems.

Through these practices, Assistant Professor and Emerging Architect Fellow at the University of Toronto, Humbi Song, explores how recent developments in AI and interactive technologies has created sometimes fraught, sometimes fruitful, new creative relationships between designers, tools, and intelligent systems.
