Architectural outcomes

This Ted talk provides an interesting insight into bio mimicry and how this can be related to architectural outcomes.
It also ties into how nature is incredibly efficient and perhaps how through evolution one day we too, our buildings and our society might become as efficient as the wonders of nature we see all around.
It opens the possibilities of development of new material technologies, ones that may have the same incredible strength qualities of the natural world, translated perhaps into architectural outcomes such as buildings that respond to immediate environmental changes in real time, moving to capture the best sunlight, breezes or views.
The infinite possibilities of bio-mimicry in the future development of architectural opportunities is truly astounding. Hopefully something that can be explored further in the semester.
