"The project introduces a novel human-machine method for 3D design-via-assembly that reframes the relationship between designer and technology. Rather than using computational design processes or AI as an automated generator to output finished forms, the project instead establishes a partnership with the Machine by adapting the surrealist Cadavre Exquis (Exquisite Corpse) game. Conventional computational methods rely on rigid target designs, reverse-engineering solutions by matching irregular found objects to pre-determined forms. In contrast, this method eliminates the target design entirely, fostering a communication-limited creative duet where the final structure emerges dynamically from both participants.

The workflow begins with a series of 3D photogrammetric scans, pointcloud and mesh analysis to translate salvaged Found Objects (FOs) from construction and demolition waste into machine-readable ""Object Identity Cards"" (OICs) containing geometric and semantic metadata. Operating within a shared Rhino and Grasshopper workspace, the human designer and a pre-conditioned off-the-shelf Multimodal Large Language Model (MLLM) alternate turns virtually dry-stacking the components. Prompted only by a baseline programmatic need, each player must interpret the previous player's spatial move in a highly active, human-in-the-loop process. This ensures that design agency is shared equally, where human intuition and machine intelligence co-authors unexpected and structurally grounded physical forms."
