phase2: Younjin; filter_swarm_translucent














Each pieces are connected both by elastic and by rigid cord, which makes them react not only individually but also in a group. Through this swarming, the closed field obtains openings which act as visual filter.

I've added a second layer to the received piece. The two layers are separated by a system of longer tubing at alternating heights of that are strategically placed within the original network. The resulting deformation is the result of the internal resistance of the two membranes played against each other. the gap between the two layers is activated by a web of thicker gauge elastic string (this also helps reduce the apparent singularity of the longer tubes by creating a denser field between the two membranes. I've also noticed that when you begin to play the two systems against each other, the internal webbing functions as a way of augmenting the visual index of any distortions of the system.

PhaseOne_jeffmillett_binding/cycle/translucent


binding—identifies material connections of the cyclical
cycle—infinite scape; repetition within a defined boundary
translucent—void-space—ambiguous production of the aforementioned

Phase1_Rychiee_ResilientTranslucentNetwork



we have nothing to hide

bound together we are stronger, yet we flex as individual beings


pull me and i will follow you but i will take others too


release me and we will all return back to where we belong

Phase1_Brett_MassiveResilientNetwork


Network as interdependent
Massive as quantity
Resilience as adaptive to change
Networked Massive Resilience as a system initiating choice in interdependence, dynamism in amount and structure in change

phase1_Younjin_pliantresiliencenetwork1

The pliant and resilient elements construct a system which is pliantand resilient through networking. However, the networking makes thesystem have distinct attributes from each element.

Phase 1_Christian_massiveSwarmFilter



Filter affects configuration of organisms within field.
Altered topographic condition created.

Swarming congregation of filters becomes massive threshold
of topographic change in scape.

I wrote this text to help myself think about the constellation of attributes comprising my first territory, the translucent-swarm-filter-scape: "Translucent - Light, perhaps diffuse, may pass through it; Swarm - Like entities aggregate into a legible whole, but remain discrete; Filter - To select and allow or deny movement; Translucent-swarm-filter-scape - Discrete, aggregated entities diffusing light, selectively allowing some passage through the field."

hi guys

so in addition to this blog there is also a studio wide blog...i will post a link to our blog on that blog site.
having our own blog will help us keep the content edited and succinct.
i need all of your emails so that i can invite you to this blog-- throw me a quick email at dianaj.martinez@gmail.com
for now all images posted to the blog should be posted at 10" x7.5 at 150 dpi
the image is of no particular importance...it is just a test.
this is a link to the studio wide blog.

hi all...this is your blog...please post

this is intended to be a forum for you to ask questions and make comments about your work and/or about the work of others in your studio.
