I'm currently working on a project dealing with the idea of the "open ended becoming". In the open ended becoming lies the idea of a non-prescriptive architecture/design, in which "breeding" the architectural functions rather than chasing programmatic ideals becomes relevant.

As a material system to meet these ideas, I've chosen stearin. It has a historical role in our town/site, Sarajevo, during the siege (which also caught my attention) but more important it has a melting point that can be reached with a simple stove!

The danish artist Henrik Menné is a quite good example of how can create procedures that, that with an open end, will create forms (i hope also new programmatic content).

My interpretation of the open ended becoming is a machine that drips stearin and creates structures over a large time span. In this first version of the machine it simply creates circles. Im curently working with the idea of programming the machine in a way that take the open ended becoming more serious. Enclosed circles or...

Never the less where ever this project ends, it doesn't really end. But guys, I think I have to update this post a little when I have some drawings scanned.
