preparation for Wednesday's pin-up

For Wednesday you will each have minimum 4 plates + several prototypes :


plates (a3 or larger) :

  • SITUATION - chosen/imagined situation (location-time-context...)---with images, explanation texts, sketches in section, plans, etc.
  • RESEARCH - cases studies / material studies / physical, psychological studies / etc.
  • READING - your definition of reading + the units of reading (all 100 or excerpts, principle, categories) in images, sketches and texts + anything you think fit
  • PROCESS (more than one plate) - the way your reading space works (it can be in precise sketches, perspective rendering, detailed diagrams,  plans, sections, according to what suits best your project and what we discussed today during tutorial) 


This is a generic requirement that should help you move forward.
You can give other titles to the pages if you like. You should also give a name to your project - it always helps.
...And you can have more than 1 plate for each subject of course...


Start the plates now with what you have done already (take pics of models, scan your drawings...) and complete the plates as you develop your work.
You will continue working on them until the end of the project, designing them with your own aesthetics according to what you are working on.

You should also be able to describe and explain your idea and process of thinking from the beginning of the reading project. Making one more plate for this will help you - in the form diagrams, text, sketches, ... Bring all work done from the beginning (or documentation of it).


prototypes
These are physical (and/or computational) experimental models. Not just one but many!!
Some of them could have scale but this is not a requirement.



To these you can add videos, animations, ... anything you are now working on!

The point of this phase of the project is for you to get familiar with the ingredients you are working with, to understand the logics of the architecture you are developing and experiment with its reality as much as possible - technical drawings and modes of representation will be developed further later.




Good luck!! 




ps
I urgently need update of work from you, Woody (you are in a critical situation...)

  1. AJ Camille I made my decision already, I will focus on one feeling, and I chose fear. I already watch some part and read some bio of Hitchcock as your suggestion, his idea is awesome, but however it's look like an old fashion, so I will combine some of modern thriller movies, such as Say Yes (2001), Alone (2007) and some more movies to study about how to make a thriller/ horror scene.

  2. It sounds good... although the idea of working on the 2 basic drives of mankind, life and death, eros and thanatos, (fear and desire) was also very promising....
    You might consider adding this now or later.
