field mapping digital notations


Architecture is a 4-dimensional practice of investigation and an inclusive process. Time based cycles (minutes, hours, days etc..) generate differences in articulation of parallel streams such as the character of spatial conditions as light alters the impact on our perception, or materials that change and adapt as well as the programmatic use that depends on the specific cycles of inhabitation.
Investigating the underlying logics of the time dependency, a system of notations reveals unique field conditions by inserting referential markers in between repetitive phases of events that are representing those singular events.
In order to notate the qualitative changes of specific conditions that break the rhythm, one needs to code these unique time based events.

Play out the skills you acquire during the workshop and entertain ideas of the previous exercise with digital means (polygonal, nurbs). Alter your strategies as you improve and add additional techniques from the program.
