Brooklyn-based artist Huy Bui has created an open-sourced survivalist installation.
Named 'Beyond 0,' the installation is currently on display at the 'Cooler Gallery' in Brooklyn. Designed to be "a Structure for Hope and Survival," the piece is an intersection of art, architecture and science. Bui designed this structure to act as "one big steel suitcase of all the stuff that support[s] your resilient spirit and what it might take to sustain hope for a better world."
This survivalist installation is designed to outlive the human species and includes solar panels, an irrigation system, a dog bed and more. On his website, Bui includes a complete list of materials needed to reproduce this at home and he is working on an instruction manual for the public. This intersection of art and survivalism serves as an interesting commentary on the current state of the planet.
Open-Sourced Living Habitats
Huy Bui's Survivalist Installation 'Beyond 0' is Self-Sustaining
Trend Themes
1. Open-sourced Living - Providing open-sourced structures allows people to create self-sustaining communities and live off the grid.
2. Survivalist Architecture - Creating structures that are self-sustaining and outlive the human species offers new opportunities for architectural design.
3. Artificial Intelligence for Self-sustenance - Using AI in the design of self-sustaining habitats offers opportunities for automation and optimization of resource management.
Industry Implications
1. Architecture - Integrating self-sustaining features and open-sourced plans in architecture offers new design opportunities for eco-friendly living spaces.
2. Energy - Developing and implementing innovative energy sources such as solar panels and other renewable resources can support self-sustaining living structures.
3. Technology - Innovative technology such as AI and automation can be used to create efficient and optimized self-sustaining living habitats.
