1.1 Natural - 3.0 Site

Issued Mon., Sept. 17, 2007

For Thur., Sept. 20, 2007: Mike and I are using our word joints "Divergent" and "Convergent" reticulation, taken from our SEM image collection and Autopsy, to establish a rule set that will be the foundation for our project. Through our research and precendant studies we have witneesed a reoccuring "Divergent Convergent Reticulation" theme. We have decided to further develop our synthetic model modules, which is the process of taking the code from the natural and applying the logic to develop modules run through many generations. Our site anaylsis will be altered by plotting commerical, residental, and industrial locations within the sub-group of economically stable, to econimally deprived, to locations with money input but still in a phase of restoration. For Mon., Sept. 24, 2007 we will have three precendent study diagram, new natural and synthetic drawing + models, and drawings + models of the site.

3.1 to 3.4.5 Our objective was to anaylze the sit by identifing certain activities within a two block radius from the site location. Using these points, which were plotted on a map digitally to form"point clouds", we used rhino to create "logically" nurb curbs, lofts, meshes, and triangulated meshes. Further, we used our "point clouds" and different nurb curbs to create phenotype relationships.
