Future Mars Missions at the European Space Agency
Abstract
It is an exciting time for space exploration as humans will soon move beyond low Earth orbit and return to the Moon for the first time in more than 50 years. In the next leap beyond the Moon, the European Space Agency plans an ambitious exploration strategy which will contribute to a huge international collaborative effort to see the first humans on Mars in the 2040s. This presentation will give you an overview of the work to be done to make this ambition a reality in the coming decade and beyond.

Tailored Materiality
Abstract
Computational tools and digital fabrication give us the possibility to have a positive impact in the built environment by enabling us to design more efficient and materially effective structures.
Including intelligence in material systems needs sustained development of computational design and fabrication pipelines. This presentation will give you an overview of my work related centred around such design and fabrication pipelines specifically applied to the architecture and construction sector.
