Other Products

The development work during 2009 was not aimed at producing a single product. The general idea was to create a flexible, stigmergic development platform - from which many different products can emerge. The concept of four dimensional building was not pre-planned: it was an emergent outcome of the development work.

The first, finished product to emerge has been the EasyBuild HUD. However, this development system allows many other products to be be spun off and much further complexity added.

At the moment, a memory system for the EasyBuild HUD is work in progress - allowing users to store their various creations to be reproduced at a single click of the mouse.

A new version is being designed to provide a whole variety of furnishings and furniture items.

Stigmergic systems do not involve any planning or pre-determined products. Instead, they facilitate the emergence of ideas and creativity, which can take us way beyond any current imagination. Progression is unpredictable and products can emerge that are quite different from anything imagined in earlier stages.

As we work with more designers, graphic artists, builders sculptors, photographers and scripters - who knows what further products will emerge in the coming months?
