Is building tall with timber more than an architectural gimmick? Why is a new robotic hand a big step towards sci-fi becoming reality? And what's special about Dezeen's editor's new tattoo?
In this episode, Dezeen editor Tom Ravenscroft and features editor Nat Barker discuss the world's tallest hybrid timber tower, which recently topped out in Sydney. To read more about mass timber buildings, check out our Timber Revolution series.
Next, we hear a conversation between Nat and design editor Jennifer Hahn about the announcement from 1X Technologies that it has developed a hand for its humanoid robot that has human-level dexterity.
Finally, Tom tells us about his new tattoo, which was inked with a world-first pain-free method devised by a London start-up.
