BREAKE THE ALGORYTHM ----- BLOW UP THE MANIFOLD

(1) an algorithm is an abstract diagram that emerges from the repetition of a process, an organization of time, space, labor, and operations: it is not a rule that is invented from above but emerges from below; (2) an algorithm is the division of this process into finite steps in order to perform and control it efficiently; (3) an algorithm is a solution to a problem, an invention that bootstraps beyond the constrains of the situation: any algorithm is a trick; (4) most importantly, an algorithm is an economic process, as it must employ the least amount of resources in terms of space, time, and energy, adapting to the limits of the situation.

so fucking dumb that some characters die by falling out of trees. like that is the one thing that cats are known for not doing

I knew he was the king of chronophotography, but until art historian Michael Lobel mentioned them on social media, I had no idea Etienne-Jules Marey also made sculptures.

Some he put in zoetropes to "reanimate" the images of pigeons or gulls in flight. Some, though, he just made as single contiguous forms, as close to the layered stop-action, single-frame images he pioneered.

Étienne-Jules Marey's chronophotographic gun was first made in 1882.[9] This instrument was capable of taking 12 consecutive frames a second, with all the frames recorded on the same picture. Using these pictures he studied horses, birds, dogs, sheep, donkeys, elephants, fish, microscopic creatures, molluscs, insects, reptiles, etc. Some call it Marey's "animated zoo". Marey also conducted the famous study about cats always landing on their feet. He conducted very similar studies with a chicken and a dog and found that they could do almost the same. [Wikipedia]

Do you have a fact on Camila? 🩵

Camila Noceda! She’s a great parent.

OWL HOUSE FACT #63: Camila has an ongoing one-sided feud with Thomas Edison because he once had produced a film of an elephant being electrocuted. Stories of Belos’s grandeur would remind her of him and she swore if she ever got the chance to plant a lucky strike Belos would not see the Sun again.

“At least Etienne-Jules Marey left cushions for the bunnies to land on when he dropped them”

DP2 - Project 01 - Market Stall in the Intoxicating Garden - HyperFlow

Week 6:

I mainly focused on communicating the idea in more detail and clarity this week in addition to the change of purpose of the market stall. I try to design the garden and the drinking area in a way that people feel that they are embraced by the plants in the form of wind flowing around people. The market stall is focused on having high performance against storm in the autumn and winter as the former is the season that has the highest volume rain fall and the latter is the season that is the windiest. While the south facing surfaces are wind deflectors that would be most active in the winter, the roof is designed to be a translucent rainwater filtration system that may be dismountable. By studying how woodwind instrument functions such as clarinet and saxophone, I improved the design of the ducts which now have a piece of reed attached to their ends that vibrates and intensify the sound produced by the wind flow.

I tried to get inspired by the sci-fi movies and novels in preparation for the training building programme. After doing a rereading of the book 'The Wandering Earth' I generated some initial ideas of having the market stall as entrance to the training building, a research centre that trains future scientists to monitor and investigate the behaviour of the sun and promote technological innovation to prepare the earth for the wandering in the universe. The market stalls would be the last spot for the young talents to enjoy the precious nature before going in to the 'jail' where they would spend the rest of their lives researching for the coalition government. These ideas may be provisional which may change, but for my practice this year, I would like to improve and investigate more into the narrative nature of my design which depict the future of humankind and awakes people today.

Inspired by Etienne-Jules Marey's simulations, I should experiment with the organisation and composition of the market stalls which shields and channel winds and explore using the turbulance generated as the basis for my building design. There are interesting concepts and elements from the tutorial that I need to look into: rain fuel, bioluminescence and second order aesthetics. Importantly, I must improve the design so legs so they can function structurally and start making physical models of them and other moving parts to test and evaluate.
