Theo Jansen "The walls between engineering and arts exist only in our minds." Great for a P4C session on What is Life? etc. http://www.ted.com/talks/view/lang/eng//id/162 http://www.strandbeest.com/index.php

Living Bridges of Meghalaya

Definitely one for assembly. These bridges are grown over many generations' lifetimes from special vine roots to withstand serious river flooding.

Reminds me of the art work of Andy Goldsworthy but also of ideas I have had in the past of how plantlife could be used in this way to overcome lack of resources for building.

Like Andy Goldworthy's work, these seem more asthetic than funtionary.
