Tutorial - 15th Feb - Vicky

Disscussion centred around the model in the Matthew Gallery, talking about the Eisenman Review Day, urban theories and scales at which to proceed with work.

Two Theoretical stances Tom and I set up to discuss with Vicky were;
  • Hetrotopias within the city - a view of society within the urban, mixes and interactions.
  • Concepts of perforativity and the event within the urban grain. This came from my dissertation of the Edinburgh Festival creating event spaces, but also Architectural Theory Lectures discussing Tchumi and his scripting of program and event within space.
Model
  • using and expanding the model to develop an architectural language. One of grain/verticality/connections/casings/edge conditions.
Sections
  • to draw a long city scale section which starts to include temporal natures within the city. The event and the programmatic.
