augmented constructions in space/time
“Contemporary architectural settings are usually experienced as having their origin in singular moments of time. They evoke an experience of flattened or rejected temporality. Yet, the existential task of architecture is to relate us to time as much as to space…”[1]
“In temporary architectures I explore the idea of the journey. Through the journey you arrive at the idea of variations and you learn that these are as important as the final results… The end result is no more than a more defined vibration that grows out of all changes that have been between the initial project and the final construction. In its very formation, architecture incorporates the idea of the journey, of the variable.”[2]
A workshop for students of the (media)³ studio (3rd Bachelor Interior Architecture) situated in a specific time-space (99h and 99m³). The aim was designing and building on 1/1 scale of spatial and temporal augmented structure/installation, that was both physical and digital. Cardboard was used as material, beamers to project a mapped digital animation on the structures. After two days of sketch design, resulting in a “working model” - five structures/installations where build on 1/1 scale.
Both in the logistics of making and the projection mapping, digital media where used extensively. Parametric models where used to output construction data, beamers where used as an animation and production tool, but also as an exploratory and inspirational device.
