Strange Materials with Mark Miodownik
Δημοσιεύτηκε στις 6 Μαρ 2013
Materials
are a defining characteristic of society. The ages of civilization are
named after materials and the development of new materials do more than
simple transform technology: they change behaviour and shape the urban
landscape, from our cities and our hospitals, to our homes and our art.
In
this Ri Discourse, Professor Mark Miodownik introduces us to the
innovations that are shaping a new materials age, one that blurs the
fundamental distinction between living and non-living things and
challenges the very notion of material itself.
From ferrofluid to
the revolution that is 3D printing, Mark points to the materials and
innovations that will shape our future. Just as bionic limbs and
synthetic organs are becoming the norm so our man-made environment is
also changing to become more lifelike. Are living buildings and objects
that heal-themselves are on the horizon?
This Friday Evening Discourse was held at the Royal Institution of Great Britain on 22 February 2013.
