IMMATURE ARCHITECT OF THINGS

Welcome to SIDE-B.

As an individual inherently curious and deeply fascinated by the design of elegant systems throughout human civilization and beyond, my journey began in the realm of architecture. While some might find it perplexing that a background in architectural design led me to the world of robots and AI, I see a profound philosophical connection. To me, all these disciplines embody the art and science of architecting elegant, functional, and ultimately intelligent entities. This page showcases some of the initial works that hint at this interconnected vision. Although these early projects primarily focus on the innovation and storytelling of spaces, they transcend traditional boundaries. They are explorations - unbounded, divergent, and expressive of various thoughts and ideas. These "immature" works represent the seeds of a journey that bridges creation of physical space with the dynamic world of AI and robotics. If you wish to revisit my more recent endeavors in AI and robotics research, please feel free to return to SIDE-A: AI+ROBOTICS RESEARCHER.
