Portrait Pavilion / CoOB Architects | ArchDaily

http://www.archdaily.com/99349/portrait-pavilion-coob-architects/ The portrait pavilion in the ballroom of the ancient Duivenvoorde Castle is the centrepiece of the celebration of the museums 50th anniversary. CoOB, a collaboration between architecture firms Office Jarrik Ouburg and Paulien Bremmer Architects, designed the pavilion commissioned by office for cultural innovation Non-Fiction. The interior of the ballroom, dating back to 1717, has a unique Louis XIV style and is attributed to court architect Daniel Marot. The rich woodwork contains life-sized portraits of the successive generations who lived at the castle. In addition the museum has a collection of 131 (family) portraits on display spread over the different halls and rooms of the castle. floor plan 01

Mindsigh » Blog Archive » Brad Kligerman - Artist in virtual

In another first for Australia’s ABC broadcaster, a forum was held last night featuring SecondLife Artist-in-Residence Brad Kligerman – a Paris-based architect and new media artist. As part of the AVAIR (Ars Virtua Artist in Residence) program , which provides sponsorship for new media artists in virtual 3D world SecondLife, this forum provided an opportunity fo rthe artist to share his experience working as an artist-in-residence. The forum was attended by 27 ‘avatars’ (virtual presences) – numbers deliberately limited to reduce lag and traffic pressure on the server providing the ‘space’, and was simaltaneously webcast to http://slcn.tv/ where I watched the presentation. Kligerman has set out to use his architectural sensibility in building both a display space and a series of visual works. http://lostbiro.com/blog/?p=879

Unreal Meetings

Virtual meeting space: Rather than designing a meeting space that resembles one of those found in the physical world, MIT researcher Drew Harry intends this space to track the flow of ideas in a conversation, and to give significance to where people place the avatars that represent them. MIT researcher Drew Harry flies his avatar into a house in Linden Labs ' online environment, Second Life . The avatar passes couches, a fireplace, and a dining-room table complete with red-velvet tablecloth and candles. "Second Life is relentlessly literal," Harry says, pointing out one familiar domestic object after another.
Cutting edge architectural work increasingly uses scripting and models of emergent and embedded behavior to explain systems and to generate morphology. The term agentCODE is used to imply the relation between agent-like behavior, the function of low level code and scripting as a way of producing and controlling that behavior, and the morphological consequences of this. When we discover patterns in architecture, in systems, and in the formal operations of the city, these patterns function as a basic index, telling us how the system works and how it might work in the future. "... each portion of matter is not only infinitely divisible, as the ancients observed, but is also actually subdivided without end, each part into further parts, of which each has some motion of its own; otherwise it would be impossible for each portion of matter to express the whole universe. http://agentcode.wikispaces.com/

amp; ORTNER BAUKUNST

ABSTRACT This paper proposes an essentially new theory of urban space based on information theory and the laws of optics. The use of urban space is linked to the information field generated by surrounding surfaces, and on how easily the information can be received by pedestrians. Historical building exteriors usually present a piecewise concave, fractal aspect, which optimizes visual and acoustical signals that transmit information content.

Welcome to fabprefab, a web resource dedicated to tracking developments in the market for ‘modernist prefab dwellings’ Predominant mass-market housing programs such as project homes or tract housing largely fail to meet the desires of people who appreciate a modernist design aesthetic. Custom-designed modernist architecture is beyond the financial reach of many people and so prefab is viewed as a design and production ideology that has the potential to deliver affordable modernism. http://www.fabprefab.com/fabfiles/home.htm

Quite out of the blue someone started talking, and lacking something better to do, as knowledge for example, or maybe because of the specific, we delighted ourselves with infinite intricate words, like the patterns in an very smooth and oriental carpet, impossible to think about in one day. So, we found ourselves talking about how we would talk, because it was impossible for us not to become self reflexive and cautious, if not the very way we talk would be equal to that we think, and then we build, as Heidegger said, or if something remains above, or laterally, or in a Delleusian fold. Discourse we will with striate discursiveness about meta-discursivity, asking ourselves about egg and galina in a nobler form: what had been in the beginning? architecture or the sense of it? Because to whom likes hardboiled eggs as well as their fried genitrix, without any informative necessity about the ante, we regretfully bring the new that the meal is not equally tasteful.
The digital world coils and uncoils, enravels and unravels. The changes occurring with paradigms have benefited dynamic and process-based systems, the generative aspect of form, and a complex world of synapses. "Everything is involved in a continual process of transformation" (Lars Spuybrook, "Motor Geometry").

The Skyscraper Museum: VIVA

The Skyscraper Museum is devoted to the study of high-rise building, past, present, and future. The Museum explores tall buildings as objects of design, products of technology, sites of construction, investments in real estate, and places of work and residence. This site will look better in a browser that supports web standards , but it is accessible to any browser or Internet device. Required: Macromedia Flash Player , version 7 In 2001, the Museum was awarded an IMLS National Leadership Grant in the Museums On-line category for VIVA History: Visual Index to the Virtual Archives, an innovative visually-based interface that uses a 3-D computer model of Manhattan as a click-on map, allowing Web visitors to view the city, present and past, and to access the Museum's collections through an on-line, searchable database.
