Land Art Generator Initiative

It’s another great example of solution-based artwork, or artwork that is moving beyond formative and didactic expressions and into the realm of infrastructure art. In this case, the artwork is serving the useful function of air purification, claiming a capacity equal to the removal of 260 cars from the roads. The piece will be using energy to power its multimedia interaction, so overall it is not an example of net zero energy art. But it does offset its footprint somewhat with this technological innovation. From HWKN: Wendy does not play the typical architecture game of ecological apology – instead she is pro-active.

Narrative structure

The narrative text structures are the plot and the setting. Generally, the narrative structure of any work—be it a film, play, or novel—contains a plot, theme, and resolution. It can also be divided into three sections, which are together referred to as the three-act structure: setup, conflict, and resolution. The setup (act one) is where all of the main characters and their basic situations are introduced, and contains the primary level of characterization (exploring the character's backgrounds and personalities).

Plot (narrative)

Plot is the cause‐and‐effect sequence of events in a story.[1] Plot is a narrative (and, traditionally, literary) term defined as the events that make up a story, particularly: as they relate to one another in a pattern or in a sequence; as they relate to each other through cause and effect; how the reader views the story; or simply by coincidence. Authors are generally interested in how well this pattern of events accomplishes some artistic or emotional effect. Dramatica Theory of Story Structure. Originated in 1994, the The Dramatica Theory of Story Structure is a diagnostic modelling tool built around a concept called “The Story Mind.” According to this notion, every story has a mind of its own – its psychology is built by the story’s structure and its personality is determined by the storytelling. The theory claims that this model of the mind was developed unintentionally over centuries of storytelling as a by-product of the attempt to communicate information and emotions across a medium from an author to an audience.

In this light a story is seen as an argument in which the author, hoping to convince the audience of a point of view, suggests that a particular approach to problem solving is (or is not) better than all others that might reasonably be tried in a given situation. To successfully make this argument, all other pertinent problem solving approaches must be examined in the story as well and shown to fall short of the one promoted by the author. Dramatic structure. History[edit] Freytag's analysis[edit] "Freytag's pyramid", symbolizing his theory of dramatic structure According to Freytag, a drama is divided into five parts, or acts,[5] which some refer to as a dramatic arc: exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and dénouement.

It has given its storytellers the power to emotionally enter people's minds. Ever since mankind had evolved a brain capable comprehending abstract ideas, along with an extremely powerful creative imagination, people began to invent words. People have from generation to generation gradually created more complex cultures as they progressed. They connected these vocal sounds into a series of sounds that became crude sentences. People used this crude language to convey everyday deeds and ideas to one another.
