Abduction Machine-1 as wooden furniture

摘要

The Abduction Machine Project is in progress at RACE (Research into Artifacts, Centre for Engineering) of the University of Tokyo. In this project, we are focusing on the creative process of human reasoning, referred to as abduction (hypothesis generation). The Abduction Machines are experiential apparatus to embody and describe the process of abduction. One of the main objectives of the Abduction Machine Project is to establish a new view of abduction, which plays a crucial role in creative processes, by combining the experientialist views on human knowledge and architectural space design methodologies.
