Research Sketches

Ongoing research
Wandering (Landscape) Machine
Background Our intention is to break down certain relationships, at least metaphorically, such as between the camera, film, projector and screen, when we explore computational image and world creation. We hope to create, edit and embed procedural and/or algorithmic processes, and to explore how artistic intent can be organized and constructed in a mind wandering […]
Ongoing research
Myths and Space
Basic idea: We can look at certain myths that are crucial for the development of our cultural sphere, the Latin West (Occident after antiquity); and link them with conceptions of space. Concentrate on a process of increased abstraction, from the epoch of the Gothic Cathedral onwards. Abstraction is a twofold process, leading to spaces of […]
Future Research
Atmospheneering
How to endorse digital spaces with atmosphere (“Atmospheneering”)? What are the characteristics of an ‘atmosphere’?. How to install atmospheric elements in the construction of virtual worlds, to make their (presented) spaces believable?
Future Research
Walking the city
How can a visitor’s presence in a virtual space also configure that space in itself, by how the visitors walk, interact and look upon that world? How can a limited space be used exploring vast virtual environments?
Future Research
Morphospace
How to express processes of development = of evolution in its wider terms, as a space? How to present even complex developments, presented in a formal way as changes in variables and their relations, as a changing spatial gestalt?
Future Research
Dynamic Flowcharts
How to express an evolutionary dynamics as a timely sequence of changing gestalten/forms? 2 principle scenarios .
Future Research
Processes as Gestalt
Is it possible to express dynamics, i.e. processes, as gestalt(en)?
Research Realized
Mindsets as world-generative force
Relation between mindsets and architectures: Mindsets and their constitutive ideas rested in cultural heritage (mythol. background included) and world view: to which architectures they lead? Evolution of lead ideas, and architectural expression.
Research Realized
Notions about Gestalt
What constitutes gestalt, and why it is important for human beings in conceiving spaces at all?
Research Realized
Video navigation panel for artificial natures worlds
How can we extend the time spent in our exhibition in a playful way? Is it possible to elicit an overall, consistent impression about a world’s very nature, by the Perception of similar gestalten?
Research Realized
Notions of space 02
To conceive space as a totality, from different angles (perspectives of perception), and to present those spaces as ‘worlds’: how the respective world looks like, as a space?
Research Realized
The world disc
How can an cumulative and timeline based gestalt show a map of the history of the build environment in which the visitors’ activity is recorded as traces of connections between architectural typologies?
Research Realized
Notions of space 01
How can we in an exhibition offer visitors a realistic size estimation and a feeling of “being there” (dweller/pedestrian) in a built environment?
