New nature in park on the Ilm
MediaArchitecture Introductory Project-Module
Winter semester 2020/21
The project is structured in three parts with online plenum review and consultation in presence.
In the first part students will get an introduction into the field of MediaArchitcture and analyse and present exemplary artistic reference projects. They will research in literature about new artistic and scientific perspectives on nature. Students will reflect about their personal experience and train their personal perception with exercises. Parallel to the research students will learn in seminars to work and experiment with different media tools and technologies. In the first plenum the first concept idea will be presented.
In the second part students analyse places in park at the Ilm and document them with drawings, photos or videos. They will develop context-based design-oriented concepts for the mobile, interactive installation. Students will combine their concepts with different technical systems or devices and integrate them in the interactive installation. Invisible Information and data of natural systems related to the context become perceptible for the user. In the second plenum the concept idea is applied with media tools and related to the physical context.
Finally functional prototypes will be designed as scaled models up to scale 1:1 and will be tested in the physical context. Students will test, evaluate and document the usability. The prototype is a perception instrument to intensify the communication and will be presented in the third plenum. The final presentation of the hole design concept will be presented with video documentation and artistic picture language and a logbook shows the representation of the design process in the hole semester.
