Title: shape folding fractals for architecture (TED talk/processing)

He even physically created them in the end, via laser-cutting.

really interesting!
@tit_toinou I agree, not architecture but architectural features perhaps, erumh, folks at FF have been doing this for quite some time now, although on a smaller scale, I think everything demonstrated in this vid can be found here on FF :)
