ex 5 reflection promptPlease read the prompt below. Then scroll to the bottom, click on the link to your section page for Ex 5 Reflections, and post your precise and articulate reflections in response to each set of questions.Postings are due by FRIDAY MARCH 14th. This semester’s Exercise Five ran parallel, in many ways, to last semester’s Exercise Two. They each invited the process of reverse engineering to understand everyday interfaces; ex 2 with objects, and ex 5 with buildings’ forms and spaces. Each surfaced numerous qualities through careful investigations using distinct filters: form and composition, fabrication and assembly, and use and operation. Each invited the process of looking between and across filters to further extend their analyses. Exercise Five used many of the tools and strategies of Exercise Two to help unpack the complexities and nuances of buildings and spaces. It also introduced some new ones: Briefly:
1. Identify what the different media and filters revealed about the building during each of the sub-exercises. How did your understanding of the building change throughout the exercise? Which investigation tools and procedures facilitated your most significant discoveries? How? Which tools and procedures offered the most surprising results? What were they? 2. Review your Reflection posted for Exercise Two. Revisit Exercise Two examples in the CFY conference exhibition. What significant relationships can you now draw between the investigations undertaken for both exercises and the resultant discoveries? 3. Summarize what you learned about the way the exercise was constructed and about your particular inquiry during the course of the final jury. What is your most surprising ‘take-away’ from having done this project? 4. In Exercise Three’s riffing process, the analytical drawings of Exercise Two became generative. Consider the comprehensive analysis work of Exercise Five. How might these investigations of form and composition, fabrication and assembly, and use and operation become generative? Identify specific Exercise Five findings which might begin to identify possible strands of that filter’s DNA. (a proportional system? an organization that correlates three scales? a system of assembly? a bodily encounter? a perception? a transformation over time?) Identify possible trajectories for riffing through each of the various filters. Without setting a final goal (of course!), identify a series of questions that might begin to offer variations worthy of exploration. (For example: What if proportional relationships are extended to inform the larger scale? What if the body is postured in the space to further exploit the modular system? What if the materials become transparent to further exploit the assembled layered systems?) ex 5 jundanian ex 5 setiawan ex 5 ullrich ex 5 antunez ex 5 ozbil ex 5 england ex 5 vialard ex 5 lee ex 5 okcu ex 5 frank ex 5 park ex 5 minatta ex 5 dvi-vardhana Links to this Page
