Additional information
This paper is the first scientific documentation of a lifelike chemical system since Otto Bütschli first described it in 1892. This paper described the unique character of the lifelike chemistry using modern imaging techniques and also uniquely proposes that this platform may be considered a ‘technology’ since its outputs can be manipulated to produce deliberate outcomes. This paper is therefore the first scientific paper to propose a) that dynamic droplets may offer an alternative technological platform to machines and b) that the qualities of ‘livingness’ are worthy of further scientific study and may be applied in architectural contexts.
