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.

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.....

Fluid Tissue


Top-
Studies [on my new TabletKiosk Tablet PC] for a fluid tissue parasite. Looking at what might happen when the non-static tissue representation begins to erode and peel away the secondary surface of the drawing membrane.

Data collection tentacles... surface splicing... sheet surface scarring... duration fragmentation....

Bottom-
The device that draws... the machine that records the information- as it is distributed/as it is absorbed/as it impregnates the surface/and as it becomes new topographical information to be drawn back into the system.

The organic and temporary nature of the system- the relationship of the etching system and the residue...drawing. scanning. digesting. redrawing. spatializing. reformatting. I am intrigued by the drawing informing the hand, as much as i am the hand informing the drawing. Or what happens when the drawing draws back.

inside : outside

A "twist" of the relationships between the inherent inside surface-zone and the exterior envelope-area....

An experiment for a domestic inversion project

Convergence Point Residue

The leftover bits. The crust from a sandwich. The residue at the bottom of an empty latte. The accretive stuff on the bottom of the bristles of an old toothbrush. The construction lines in an [old school] drafting of an architectural situation. The parts that don't make it in.


All the tasty goodness of the stuff that got passed over. for lack of focus. Or, perhaps, from over-saturation of foci...
