To assist my Architecture in becoming an 'assistive device' I began investigating assisstive design techniques.
Consider the statement:
A history of the city
A memory of life
Break it down:
memory vs history

Psychogeography is a theory of urban form developed by Situationist, Guy Debord. A main basis for his analysis encourages a meaning of a place in history by an individual's association of:
1. Memory
2. Experience
3. Values
To apply Guy Debord's theory of Pyschogeography, I developed a criteria to directly assess and describe the characteristics and dynamic processes of the immediate Paddington Central area. These scenarios create small narratives and articulate complex emergent phenomena via four basic processes...
1. Erasure: to take things away, to remove
2. Origination: to create a point in time where something new emerges
3. Transformation: continuous change from A to B
4. Migration: moving through, ephemeral presences
It is hoped that these processes will later inform and structure programme and perhaps prototype design.
