Design Machine (1986-1988)

The development of a design machine based on artificial intelligence procedures and neural network processing was determined by three aspects: How do designers design? What do they design? What is peculiar to the design process?

The Electronic Book (1983-1984)

Nadin researched aspects of intelligent interfaces in collaboration with Brown University (Andries van Dam, Steve Feiner). The main goal was to determine the extent to which data could be compressed for the elaboration of a digital book. Design for interaction between user and "book" was implemented.
