Mud y Máquina: Art, Clay and Robotics at Ganslberg

Researchers from TRR 277 are developing a walk-in sculpture with Virginia San Fratello

AMC Researchers from Technical University of Munich, TU Braunschweig and Leibniz Universität Hannover are working with the US artist and MercatorFellow Virginia San Fratello to develop a walk-in sculpture made of clay and natural fibres. ‘Mud y Máquina’ will be created during the first week of October 2026 in a week-long workshop at Ganslberg, the former home and studio of the sculptor Fritz Koenig. The project combines traditional building techniques with digital fabrication. A woven framework made of natural fibres forms the basis for a surface of clay. The production process utilises both traditional craft techniques, such as weaving and clay application, and mobile robotic systems. The project explores how traditional building methods and the use of local materials can be combined with digital manufacturing methods. “Mud y Máquina brings together earth, natural fibre, robotics and human hands,” says Virginia San Fratello, describing the approach. The focus is on the question of how machines can support the knowledge and skills of craft-based production rather than replacing them. She sees the project both as a work of art and as a stimulus to reflect on local, resource-efficient and collaborative forms of building. Opening: 9 October 2026, 5.00 pm Gut Ganslberg Ganslberg 24 84032 Altdorf Further information: Gut Ganslberg – Landshut City Museums https://ganslberg.museen-landshut.de

The future of construction is digital printed!

The Collaborative Research Center Transregio 277 Additive Manufacturing in Construction (AMC) aims with its basic research to significantly shape the digitalization of construction. Within the levels of components, processes and materials, the AMC researches resource- and energy-efficient as well as sustainable, recyclable and digital construction. Through innovative 3D printing methods, materials, processes and optimized design are completely rethought. A holistic and sustainable approach to the future direction of construction. The future of our coexistence is reinventing itself via AMC’s fundamental research. A big deal: because it’s about future generations and setting the course for our future viability.

Die Zukunft des Bauwesen ist digital gedruckt!

Der Sonderforschungsbereich Transregio 277 Additive Manufacturing in Construction (AMC) setzt sich mit seiner Grundlagenforschung zum Ziel, die Digitalisierung des Bauwesens wesentlich mitzugestalten. Innerhalb der Ebenen Bauteile, Prozesse und Materialien erforscht der AMC das ressourcen- und energieeffiziente sowie nachhaltige, recyclebare und digitale Bauen. Durch innovative 3D-Druckverfahren werden Materialien, Prozesse und optimiertes Design völlig neu gedacht. Ein ganzheitlicher und nachhaltiger Ansatz für die zukünftige Ausrichtung des Bauwesens. Die Zukunft unseres Zusammenlebens erfindet sich über die Grundlagenforschung des AMC neu. Ein großer Wurf: denn es geht um künftige Generationen und die Weichenstellung für unsere Zukunftsfähigkeit.
