I WANT TO THANK EVERYONE FOR ALL THE HARD WORK THE LAST 6 WEEKS.  THE PIN-UP YESTERDAY REVEALED SOME GENERAL SOFT SPOTS IN THE WORK THAT WE WILL NEED TO ADDRESS MOVING FORWARD.  I FELT ALMOST EVERY PERSON WAS DIFFICIENT IN EXPRESSING THE THREE THINGS I ASKED FOR YOU TO COMMUNICATE AT THE PIN-UP YESTERDAY:

1. COMMUNICATE WHAT THE LARGER IDEA OF YOUR PROJECT IS: HOW DOES IT INTERFACE WITH THE LOCAL PUBLIC AND COMMUNITY? HOW IS YOUR PROJECT UNIQUE OR DIFFERENT THAN A TYPICAL GALLERY? WHAT LIFE-WORLD DOES YOUR SYSTEM INFORM OR PROMOTE? WHAT LIFE-WORLD DOES YOUR SYSTEM AND PROJECT DENY? WHAT TYPE OF PUBLICNESS DOES YOUR SYSTEM/PROJECT PROMOTE? WHAT IS A MEDIATHEQUE IN YOUR VIEW AND HOW DOES YOUR DESIGN UNIQUELY POSIT AN ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION?
2. BASED ON THIS LARGER IDEA PLEASE TITLE YOUR PROJECTS.
3. EXPLAIN YOUR DEFINED SYSTEM, IT’S LOGICS, AND RULES OF APPLICATION (THIS PART WAS NOTICEABLY ABSENT)

FOR THE FINAL REVIEW THESE THINGS WILL NEED TO BE COMMUNICATED  THROUGH GRAPHICAL AND ORAL MEANS.

FOR FRIDAY I WOULD LIKE EACH OF YOU TO WRITE A PARAGRAPH ON EACH OF THE FOLLOWING ISSUES:

PLEASE WRITE ONE PARAGRAPH DESCRIBING THE LARGER IDEA OF THE PROJECT.  INCLUDE IN THIS EXPLANATION  HOW YOUR PROJECT FITS INTO THE LARGER IDEAS OF THE COURSE- I.E. COMPUTATION AND THE DESIGN PROCESS, THE ALGORITHM AND THE GENERATIVE DIAGRAM, THE ROLE OF THE DESIGNER AS AUTHOR OF THE WORK OR NON-AUTHOR, THE QUESTION OF WHERE VARIABILITY AND CONTROL LIE IN AN ALGORITHMIC DESIGN PROCESS, ETC.

PLEASE TAKE CARE AND TIME TO CRAFT THIS EXPLANATION.  THIS WRITE-UP WILL BE PART OF YOUR GRADE FOR THE FINAL PROJECT, SO ATTEMPT TO MAKE IT AS CLEAR AND ARTICULATE AS POSSIBLE  PLEASE EMAIL THIS WRITE-UP TO ME BY THE BEGINNING OF CLASS FRIDAY.

AGENDA FOR WEDNESDAY:

• WEDNESDAY IS A WORKING DAY.  I WILL MEET WITH STUDENTS UPON REQUEST.

• STUDENTS SHOULD HAVE PROGRESS TO SHOW FROM WEDNESDAY AND HAVE A ROUGH DESIGN OF THEIR BUILDING TO SHOW

AGENDA:

• 1:30-5:30_INDIVIDUAL DESK CRITIQUES.  PLEASE CREATE A SIGN UP SHEET.

DUE FOR MONDAY:

• STUDENTS SHOULD HAVE: A SET OF PLANS TO SHOW, ILLUSTATOR DIAGRAMS, AND SOME REPRESENTATIONS THAT COMMUNICATE THE THREE DIMENSIONAL QUALITIES OF YOUR BUILDING IN THE FORM OF A ROUGH MODEL AND/OR PERSPECTIVE RENDERINGS.
• THE PIN-UP MONDAY IS MEANT TO BE A WORKING PIN-UP.   SO WHILE MORE FORMAL THAN AN IN STUDIO PIN-UP, THE CRITIQUES WILL FOCUS ON THE COHERENCE OF YOUR DEFINED SPATIAL-STRUCTURAL SYSTEMS AND THE LARGER IDEAS OF YOUR PROJECT AND NOT ON CRITICIZING YOUR LEVEL OF CRAFT.

WHEN YOU PRESENT MONDAY PLEASE COMMUNICATE AND COVER THE FOLLOWING ISSUES.  DO SO IN WHATEVER ORDER YOU DEEM APPROPRIATE FOR YOUR PROJECT:

1. COMMUNICATE WHAT THE LARGER IDEA OF YOUR PROJECT IS: HOW DOES IT INTERFACE WITH THE LOCAL PUBLIC AND COMMUNITY?  HOW IS YOUR PROJECT UNIQUE OR DIFFERENT THAN A TYPICAL GALLERY?  WHAT LIFE-WORLD DOES YOUR SYSTEM INFORM OR PROMOTE?  WHAT LIFE-WORLD DOES YOUR SYSTEM AND PROJECT DENY?  WHAT TYPE OF PUBLICNESS DOES YOUR SYSTEM/PROJECT PROMOTE?  WHAT IS A MEDIATHEQUE IN YOUR VIEW AND HOW DOES YOUR DESIGN UNIQUELY POSIT AN ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION?
2. BASED ON THIS LARGER IDEA PLEASE TITLE YOUR PROJECTS.
3. EXPLAIN YOUR DEFINED SYSTEM, IT’S LOGICS, AND RULES OF APPLICATION
