Brainstorming

The word glitch refers to an unpredictable irregularity in a system-digital and analogue alike. Explore the creative possibilities of glitch.

The first thing that came to my mind when think about glitch was the no sign signals that often came up on old TV’s.

Possible experiments to carry out:

Glitch refers to something unpredictable —> creative possibility: make an artwork/photograph/drawing unclear/unpredictable (new way of representing glitch)

Glitch by breaking up a photograph with straight and wavy lines (represent a digital glitch?)

Play with colour glitching

Purposely glitch something using a photocopier

The concept is to move towards effectiveness and create forms and structures that amplify simple square shapes yet playfully and functional.

The idea is to achieve complexity plan through layers and layers of simplicity.

Learn from Japanese House Assignment

House with Garden - Tetsuo Kondo

Big life in small houses - split level house

The house is only two stories high but contains five different half-levels threaded together with two sets of staircases. The design allows the family to circulate the small house in various ways. The pitched roof that can blend the environment with the interior brings more light to the dwelling.

This split-level Japanese house gives me insight that a house still could be built, although located in a limited site area. The use of different level on every floor made the room looks more spacious and large. Meanwhile, it still looks like a regular height-level house on the outside.

^ Interior model look

It is quite a heavy teamwork project as the house has different height levels for each floor, so we must calculate first to know the size. This project led me to understand more about people's characters, how to work in a group, and to use shadow skills to make the drawing more presentable and fit the black-and-white theme where we decided to use.

What I learned from this project is how to create a presentation panel, write an essay, improve my drawing skill and teamwork.
