RE: New Topographies : Designing for a Nomadic Future
Very interesting and kind of spooky, the idea of a moving city creeping around like a giant arachnid gives me the heebies! I was fascinated by the 'e-hang' autonomous aerial vehicle which is like a drone but for a human, you just punch in the destination and it takes you there! Imagine just 'hanging out' on top of Mount Kilimanjaro for the day and then heading off to an uninhabited part of the amazon for tea! Mental
Absolutely, it's super spooky... Very interesting to see how arachnid-like these forms turn out to be, considering they are seeking energy efficiency and not necessary aiming for style points. The e-hang vehicle concept you mentioned is also really fascinating... and not so out of reach either! Drones like e-hang are really jumpstarting a big shift in how the individual can explore.
... actually I might really need a part 2 to this post! I can get into some good detail about autonomous vehicles / exploration...Thanks again!
Nice one, I just remembered this, a vehicle based on an arachnid, laters..
