Week 12

The lecture this week talks about the context of decay and we went over some movie trailers such as I am Legend, 28 Days After and The Day After Tomorrow that gives me some idea of how to represent the final decay of the buildings. The task for the day covers the overlaying diffuse mapping that will definitely be useful to represent the ageing and destruction of my selected architecture.

Week 11

The lecture this week, we watched a series of videos that went through building decay process through disaster, explosions and even physical deconstruction of a building in Tokyo. This gave me some ideas of to avoid doing generic decay and start thinking of the context behind this project.

Week 10

There was no lecture this week. The exercise during the lab involved us to go to the library and search a book that represent a similar structure to the building that I'm doing. There was no exact match for the structure of Sao Paulo's Museum of Contemporary Art. There were only little sectional drawings in those books and none of them looked similar to this building. But I took pictures of the materials that I thought was used.
