RANDOMIZED IDENTITIES focuses on the idea of individualization within a production process, rather than a replication of the original prototype: Instead of using industrial robots with the
purpose of replacing human labor, we create a digital ecosystem that introduces random factors into robotic arms that are otherwise accurate to the tenths of a millimeter. The thus digitally
generated patterns and the associated process information orchestrate and actuate computer controlled woodworking tools; at the same time seamlessly creating and materializing three dimensional surfaces. In this sense, they stand for a new form of integrated product and process development and all-together for a new way of thinking design and future production sites.
