FIRST TERM review - dec 15 2009














CARTESIAN DUALITY - inspired from a picture from the National Portrait Gallery. This represents the body mind duality  layered in a Cartesian Space with the human brain as the central force of all events within the X Y Z Axes. This multi modal drawing traces the illusionary paths of human brain about itself in space as seen by its other self. 




  










GESTURAL PALIMPSEST - Palimpsest (recorded and informed motion) induced spatial sweeps of the human bodily motion. This drawing is to manifest the extent of involuntarily / voluntarily volume swept by human motions in the cartesian space. Projections of the body and the motion of the light source traced are represented in blue and red respectively. 


















GESTURAL PALIMPSEST 2 - Light used as means to draw objects of references enabling actuation in the real space. The gestures are recorded like palimpsest information to understand the formal implication of the light traced in the given spatial condition. It's the future of object making through light and photons to enact the instances of referenced objects ephemerally.  














PALIMPSESTIC ACCORDION - metaphorised accordion depicting the stretch of urban information. The sample case is of a notice board from SOHO. The notice board stretches itself like a jukebox of light projecting itself on the wall with the people actuating them like reeds which flow on the pedestrian surface. 
The intent of the this exercise was to understand the architectural metaphors that can produce new insights to revolutionize the objects of day to day interest into more natural and self thinking beings.
