We are in the anniversary year of the Apollo 11 mission. Since the first moon landing, the Earth will have orbited the Sun 50 times on July 20, 2019. During this first moon mission the Apollo 11 computer was instrumental in enabling the astronauts to land on the moon.
Today, 50 years later, the computer serves more than ever to generate new concepts and to advance into new spheres. In this project, the components of the commercially available scale-modelling set of Apollo 11 (Columbia + Eagle) were entered into a computer. The design of the project was to use the computer to create something that would otherwise not be possible. Using a machine learning algorithm, the computer created five different ways to assemble the model. These five models were all assembled far away from the instructions of the package insert coming along with the scale-modelling set and thus show a push into new dimensions previously untouched by human hands.
