Exhibition of Ecological Research at Exploratorium in San Francisco

April 3, 2023

On March 9, 2023, Adam Marcus joined colleagues and students from the Architectural Ecologies Lab at California College of the Arts for a pop-up exhibition of ecological research at the Exploratorium in San Francisco. Organized in conjunction with the San Francisco Urban Film Festival as part of the Exploratorium’s weekly series of Thursday night “After Dark” programming, the exhibition invited guests to explore prototypes, plans, and experiments developed by Marcus and his collaborators that test new strategies for sustainable habitats for more-than-human species in our rapidly changing environment. Exhibits included student design work from Marcus’s Materialities of Care studios and Ecological Tectonics seminars; ongoing research into biomaterials led by professors Margaret Ikeda, Evan Jones, and Negar Kalantar; video and imagery from the lab’s Buoyant Ecologies and Presidio Culvert Reef research with optimized ecological substrates; experimental 3d-printed ecological prototypes developed by Alex Schofield; and a live demo of a robotic clay 3d-printer printing modular components for a Bird Habitat Wall.
