We will work towards hacking the plant through branching. Increasing the yield of the hollow branches that have good fiber development these fibers could be utilized in bio-composites, a burgeoning new territory of design. A major competitor to hemp is the flax plant which has a shorter height, thus creating a simpler fiber to extract, by hacking the hemp we hope to create a better plant. While some contemporary farming practices still rely heavily upon GMOs or heavy handed farming techniques, we see a niche market to utilize natural practices and augment the growing environment to manipulate the plant’s growth in a specific way. Utilization of new technologies such as the 7-axis robot and other tooling procedures will become ingrained in the study. Monitoring our project from the beginning through the end will help us define a detailed development of fabrication protocols.
