The project will hopefully be complete this year, fully rendered with some serious animations showing the redesign and mechanical dance she produces.

On the Boards...



Teaser-
New hybrid hand drawings [ink on mylar] on the boards at the moment. Only 3 layers in... many, MANY more to go:

Systems harvesting system [SHS].

Exploration of the zone of occupancy in the designation/denotation of "alteration" within old school architectural drawings/CDs

Brothel bits...

As always, vertical circulation inquiries.

Liminal Fragmention


Windows Paint on a TabletKiosk Tablet PC


Abandoned tower study- vortex placements... exploring the breakdown of old and new program/structure/ suggested parallels of inhabitancy and movement.

The parasite attaches as external program... to become its own host a the innards are reconfigured, often violently, to repurpose the status of relationships in a vertical city app. One imagines that software drives the attraction and opens the administrative circuits for the "introduction"... but the hand takes over in the frenzy of overlapping diagrammatic explorations. 

louver study

Old TnA project- study model for louver system, main office.

Water and time

On a rare rainy southern california day... snapped an iphone [an old one alas] of a very old project of mine... little known if at all. The water and overcast sky rendered this in a new light, so to speak.....
