My design intention similar to this student project in Romania, which is to enable Monash medical Centre to fabricate the "escape pod". However, mine is done in a much smaller scale.
The use of computational architecture design which empowered by digital tools.
Manipulation of Rhino+Grasshopper to create a dynamic spatial experience.
After viewing serveral Aboriginal artworks, I began to imagine what these pieces of artwork would feel like in 3dimensional form. I’ve interpreted the dotted patterns as ‘pulses’ or ‘beats’ of rhythm. There is also often a sense of ‘grouping’ or ‘nodes’ within Aboriginal artwork. I’ve taken these two observations into consideration when thinking about the design.
1. The ‘Pulses’.
I have interpreted the ‘pulses’ in aboriginal paintings as beats of rhythm. I began to explore traditional aboriginal music.
The traditional music of holds a lot of meaning to their culture. Music is used throughout an aboriginal’s life to teach what must be known about their culture, abot their place in it and about its place in the world of nature and supernature. Music was even used to communicate with animals!
From a young age, an aboriginal is encouraged to dance and sing about everyday tasks. Music is learnt by imitation and passed onw ithout reference to any written notations. To the Australian Aboriginal, music is understood naturally and is an integral part of life, unlike western culture where music tends to be separated from life. For example, in western culture, a student must learn and understand the theory and practice of written music.
