Daedalus in the Purbecks Part 2 Project 2022 Wael Abusaad Arts University Bournemouth | UK Drones are the future of transport, and this project explores both the design and making of the drone flight in a deeply historical and rural landscape and context. Drawing, painting and making are the starting points for my design.Taking inspiration from Leonardo and Buckminster Fuller’s drawings and designs my explorations looked a lightness, geometry and digital fabrication. The Purbecks has a famous steam train connection, the Swanage Railway, which passes through the heart of the Purbeck area and has a stop near Corfe Castle at Norden. The new drone, complex including a maintenance and research facility, as well as an interchange for people and products is imagined as a series of responsive and technological advanced interlinked lightweight objects in this landscape.
