What if landscape construction could act as an extension of nature rather than feeling prosthetic? That is what TED Fellow Bradley Cantrell aims for through the use of environmental sensing, computation and robotically gathered data that informs his engineered environments. Learn more about these living infrastructures in his innovative talk. TEDArchive presents previously unpublished talks from TED conferences. Enjoy this unedited talk Bradley Cantrell. Filmed at TEDGlobal Fellows 2014. NOTE: Comments are disabled on this video. We made this difficult decision for the TED Archive because we believe that a well-moderated conversation allows for better commentary from more people and more viewpoints. Studies show that aggressive and hateful comments silence other commenters and drive them away; unfortunately, YouTube's comment moderation tools are simply not up to the task of allowing us to monitor comments on so many videos at once. (We'd love to see this change, YouTube.) So for now, if you'd like to comment on this talk, please use Facebook, Twitter or G+ to discuss with your networks.
