Precis_03

I am developing this further from the class comments but this is what I have condensed to date.

My précis is a space that will provide the experiential possibility for the audience/occupant to become the creator. The first means of investigation will be into how the human perceives. The second will be into understanding the devices that exist that will connect the human to their creation or the language of their creation. The third will be an analysis of an existing site that will be the space where this intervention will exist. The fourth will be an abstraction of the qualities of the three structures and how this new construct will function experientially within its site.

Existing programs used as points of departure:
1. Wall Street. A Performance space on the trading floor
2. Theater/school build into the ruins of a demolished building
3. Treehouse - the woods being the wilderness amongst the suburbs that suspends societal influence and allows for the development of multiple identities within the same individual
4. Urban alcoves - physical gaps between structures in urban environments
