maddogza - I found it at Dr. Behrokh Khoshnevis's website (see description).  I e-mailed him and he gave me permission to upload it for the world to see (it wasn't on youtube before). I hope you enjoyed.

Do you really WANT that shitty construction job? Ever worked in construction? It sucks. Wouldn't you rather live in a world where people did what they WANTED to do because material goods were abundant? Ever heard of the Zeitgeist movement? Check it out. "Jobs" are just another form of slavery - Economic slavery, because money is made of Debt and that's what they pay you with. Time to change the Paradigm!

this is not about building faster or about costs, its about developing ways to free humans from labor intensive tasks (or any task.) isnt that the objective of technology

[surajZakaas]

yay! a fellow zeitgeister!

AMEN to that! You are right, it is time for the great changes of the world!

The Free Masons will have to become the Free Contour Crafters.

According to an article I read it can build any shape. I would assume right angles.Everybody could have their own unique shape. The only thing that concerns me is the shape of the walls inside.

Yes, but we have to go to a system that gets rid of money all together. Then we would really see what humans are capable of. Plus the fact that we would probably end up distributing the resources evenly and nobody would starve. At least that would put an end to the overpopulation BS.
