The week 6 lecture reviewed future possibilities for new technologies and how these technologies can respond to the architecture and users.
Yasu made the statement: "think about your daily lives today." In consideration, I feel that it is imperative to take into account the daily patterns of Paddington residents into the design process. However, as a social observation I also feel the disconnection of community and family in contemporary homes is directly correlated (as mentioned in previous posts) to the consumer driven over-saturation of convenience and choice. With that being said, a socially empathic program, (such as the proposed urban farming/shopping scheme) could become the catalyst for 'Paddington 2.0'. These are proactive to social context.
SCRIPT
Real - Architecture fiction not Science Fiction. Architecture is a reality. Just as is CONTEXT.
STAGE
Consider and weight the design for the MOST important aspects of what the project hopes to achieve, or simply, hopes.
This creates - - - > Purpose - - - > Solutions AND opportunities (for emergent situations)
Given the analogy of the stage of Architecture, one must consider navigation - specifically, the paths and stories of people/users: residents/students/field workers/store men/scientists....
How will they get to the intervention from work/home/play
bus/horsedrawn? bike/kayak? How would this be enhanced by the intervention (if it needs to be).
Integrity - How can it become a sustainable entity?
SCENE
What is the users resonance with the building - Presence and identity: range of contexts, physical and psychological.
Dramatic interpretation as a 1st person experience: within the building, people interacting with other people in spaces, the context of the story (consider mise en scene/movie/snapshots in sequences)
CONTEXT > PLOT > BLDG > WAY TO TELL STORY
Extract from the 1st assignment the potential architectural and how they could be designed/illustrated/narrated - want to see it on a personal scale of interaction
Yasu showed an example of a project to get ideas rolling of end product possibilities:
Greenland Migrating
The presentation was effective at conveying all the ideas Yasu talked about in the lecture. It used facts and figures to illustrate first the context. Secondly, it described the script-the ex-mining town has emigration problems. And then it provided a fiction of the potential for the proposed intervention. The aesthetic was overall very pleasing and the uncluttered use of diagrams was very effective.
