Visualization

You have experienced life outside your standard pattern.
We have discussed and verbalized some shared spaces in Vienna.
You can think up some others.
NOW we are to visualize them: contracts, codes, limits, activities, agents and controversy.

Think that to visutalize limits or codes it is most efficient to break them and to register the effect of the trespass.
do something and register the effect

Tomorrow at 10:00 am we meet and discuss what you have been doing/thinking/producing.

In the final presentation we only see stuff that may be visualiyed throug the blog, be it directly or through a link

Informing our study of URBAN STRUCTURE AND WAYS OF LIFE we may define a privacy gradient to frame the infinite intermediate situations between public and private.
Between the public square and the bedroom, there is a whole array of examples that question the traditional divide, the black and white conception of public and private.

This leads us to the study of

SHARING SPACE


Public square – temporarily privatized public space with no contract – benches on the street – licensed occupation – open-air cafés – kiosks – advertising – privately-owned public access space – shopping centres with piazzas and streets – the tube – accessible spaces with admission reserves – open shops – self-service – closed shops – shops with a bell – public buildings and services – libraries – publicly-owned restricted access space – pay-to-enter accessible space – residences – urban communities – gated communities with shops and services – co-ownership – shared systems – shared leisure – swimming-pools – tennis – crèche – portal – media – virtual space – shared flats– grouped units – clans– families – friends – symbiosis – internet – wikipaedias – from the bedroom to cyberspace and back again.

This spectrum of intermediate situations covers almost everything, and yet, it is little studied. We still operate under the false impression of the radical separation between private and public.
The aim of this exercise is to verbalise, visualise, get to know these places as they are now, and to create a set of tools to control and design shared space in future projects.

Extremes of Living - 4th- 6th October 2006

Workshop

“On Living” will be the topic of the winter term at the Institute for Art and Architectur at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna.

The workshop “Extremes of Living”at the beginning of the semester should be an intensive startingpoint, questioning the relations of living and housing. What are the conditions and references of extreme living? Is it Andy Warhol and his factory, or living without apartment in the city, living enclosed in a prison or in a movie? Where we will live how and with whom?

“Extremes of Living” should adress issues of living beyond the questions of squaremeters and typologies, the aim is to get a specific awarness of living conditions. There should be different entrances (or exits) to the topic of living
