Robot Constructs Oscillating Wall


Swiss Architects Gramazio and Kohler have employed the services of one R-O-B the robot to construct their Pike Loop -- an oscillating brick wall that will be erected along Pike street in New York. This is clearly a relationship between man and his technology that possesses an extraordinary level of potential and a reformation of our understanding of building technologies.

  1. In what way is this project different from the sculptures of Richard Serra? See MOMA's website for some images from his retrospective there in 2007:
