O investigador do MIT Skylar Tibbits trabalha em automontagem -- a ideia de que em vez de construir algo (uma cadeira, um arranha-céus), podemos criar materiais que se constroem a si mesmos, de forma muito semelhante a uma fita de DNA se fecha a si mesma. É um conceito tremendo ainda na fase inicial; Tibbits mostra-nos três projectos ainda no laboratório que dão uma pista do aspecto que um futuro de automontagem poderá ter.
