Maps and drawings provide one way of perceiving and understanding geographic spaces. Here another approach to spatial cognition is addressed. Keywords: Spatial cognition, space syntax, naïve geography. 1. Spatial cognition is the human understanding and perception of geographic space. The traditional view on spatial cognition is said to be based on cognitive maps (Lynch 1960) - a mental map about the geographic space. In the context of this paper, a new kind of map called an axial map using the space syntax approach is introduced, which, we believe, has more resemblance to a cognitive map. 2.

Parisian urbanism perception through a 6-point perspective // realtime 4D-3D. This week I was working on adapting my previous method of reconstructing spaces to work with the spherical / 6-point perspective footage that I captured in Paris.
My aim was to analyse these urban rooms in terms of their perceived depth for the visitor walking through them, not as a static construction, but as a moving 4-dimensional perspective. Using the projection-based method of calculating depths, I create a 3d which is a subjective representation of the experience of “being in” the space, rather than a literal reconstruction of the geometries. the 3-dimensional scan which is produced, becomes a tool for analysis, identifying the effects of real objects in the scene on the viewer’s perceptions of depth, enclosure, and feelings of interiority and exteriority (represented in the 3d output of the scan process) first drawing: second drawing: Also, alongside this I was invited to do the Dip 1 workshop during open week, which focused on augmented realities and computer visions.

Paper rings by Tithi Kutchamuch and Nutre Arayavanish. Designers Tithi Kutchamuch and Nutre Arayavanish of TT:NT have designed a range of fold-out paper jewellery, launched at Origin at Somerset house in London last month.
Update: this project is included in Dezeen Book of Ideas, which is on sale now for £12. The collection consists of twelve ring designs, which are laser-cut from paper and sold flat for the user to assemble. Rings are available in a sheet with all twelve or individually. The following is from TT:NT: Birthday Ring is the laser-engraved-fine paper card that can be able to fold into flower-shaped ring.
There are 12 birth flowers altogether for each calendar month. They are the special birthday present for the special day. Parametric Paperstrip. This parametric model represents the geometry of a twisted straight paperstrip.
Length, width, and twist are adjustable. Some example strips. By definition these surfaces are developable. The paperstrip as generative element.

In recent decades there has been an increasing interest in the application to urban analysis of mathematical techniques that are more commonly used in biological studies of the metabolism of individual animals and insects, in their social groupings and collective constructions, and in the relations of energy, information and material flows through ecological systems. Michael Weinstock’s lecture: Weinstock’s strategy to generate an urban form through series of genetic evolutions is based on climatologist mathematics and physics. Charles and ray eames.
