Fakestates notes july 11

Pierre Yong
Good diagrams

Conceptual problem
Field on field
As opposed to figure ground or form field relationships


Yong - bizarre little pieces
Nice fluctuating set - look at Xenakis's collaboration with Corb and chandigarh fenestration and tempo
Also fenestration of Carpenter center via ramp

and a drain/floor condition.
Interesting to tstart the building as a kind of ground tile

Singulairty of the gesture is important
Like Mies's images
To capture in one breath the: monumentality vs the fluctuation of the environemtn

So to keep the gestuee simple enough so as also to be enigmatic

Monument and memory

Interesting for morphogenesis system to have escalating conditions that allow for porous without looking bloby.

Need better images of results
