Reviews

Notes taken on the various dicsussions on the review day.

  • Cataloging
  • juxtaposision of industy/landscape - infrastructure and the community
Can you ever fully design anything - there must be some level of inhabitation and use of the structure/object, which might be very different to the intended use (link to theory - basins)

Construction of our sites over this term - theoretically, economically, culture and population.

Possible exercises to do:
  • roads/metro/train/tram/boat/coast - connections and cutting through
  • old/new/future
  • relationship between the built and the infrastructure - beer drops/cellars
Our review - Sound Mapping

  • performance - interactions with the city
  • manipulating the fabric of the city - voids/sea edge etc. - looking at a material language
  • steam - pressure - voids, holding, large/small
Cheap space - surrounding many of these infrastructural elements of the city - how does this effect the use of the space? Can new uses feed off of this decline of land values?
