Attempts to explain the appearance of hand-made coarse ware in the Late Bronze Age Aegean have focused on analysis of decorative or formative elements of decoration or form and not upon mode or locus of production. Furthermore, little emphasis has been placed on locating this ware within the economic context of the Late Helladic world. A reanalysis of this pottery within its context argues strongly that its appearance represents a reaction to increased subsistence difficulties for the Aegean peasant.

discuss how such collaboration builds on generational continuities of technological innovation, and the ways in which their work has developed by recombining their individual interests and areas of expertise into a shared knowledge base through the process of developing specific designs. Physical space and projects thus become a site for the production of collective intelligence both as a design process and in the use of the end product.

Ben Rubin and Ann Hamilton generated this concept animation, which articulates the progression of light as it circulates through the building skin of the research facility. Small Design Firm investigated the informational potential of this lighting system by developing a biological simulation for the generation of graphic material.
