Rational Co-ordination of heterogeneous functions (conquest of space) -> first machine made furniture (Deutscher Werkbund-DWB) -> Dresden exhibit -> Richard Riemerschmid -> all art as long as it is sound and healthy, serves building <- Gropius has uncompromising directions -> F.L. Wright 1901 ...space is more spacious, and the sense of it may enter into every building, great or small ... -> Hermann Muthesius (1861-1927) <- the father of "Sachlichkeit" -> Display a neat elegance which arises from suitability and conciseness -> Year 1900, Deutscher Werkbund, 2 Living rooms, bedroom + kitchen, production costs 40 pound sterling- all in all built and installed. -> Sullivan-1892, "Ornament is mentally a luxury, not a necessary -> focus on the production of buildings ... comely in the nude -> "by means of pure structure" ... joy, lassitude, protection -> 1897/98, Adolf Loos "the lower the standard of a people, the more lavish are its ornament" -> in an architectural or design object, the only importance is the degree to which it attains utility and the harmony of all parts in the relation to each other.
-> Small, self-sufficient landowner ? (Charles Fourier) see books (Ralph Borsodi) -> Tecton Group -> lacking heavy massing of customary buildings -> they appear unsubstantial (emotional resistance slow acceptance), people cling to solid volumes, emotional biased misconception of ancient time, the more solid volume, the more safe.
-> average room height = 7 feet (~ 2.1 m) undivided 14 feet -> split level -> useable ratios /1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,-> feet/meter -> 0.3/0.1, 0.6/0.2, 0.9/0.3, 1.5/0.5, 2.4/0.8, 4.33/1.3, 7/2.1, 11.33/3.4, 18.33/5.5
-> ein "Kunstwerk" ist Kommunikation. Der Stil ermoeglicht es zu erkennen, was es anderen Kunstwerken verdankt, und was es fuer weitere neue Kunstwerke bedeutet. Die Funktion des Stils ist der Beitrag zu "Geschlossenheit", in der Art wie es Form und Kontext aufeinander bezieht, die Differenz und die Art wie es erreicht wird. -> Organisation -> dienende Funktion, Produzent-> 1. Order+2.Order, Rezipient-> 2.Order -> Der Gewinn neuer Freiheiten geht immer mit dem Verlust alter einher.
Individual spheres-servant space, collective speres-served space -> was geschah mit dem Experiment ?, City: Radburn, State: New Jersey, 1929
-> Open planning -> group form consists of the relations between buildings -> see also, Sullivan (around 1900), Kindergarten Chats <- Organic is the "ten-finge(u)red grasp of reality"
-> Image is everything ?, NO, substance is everything -> so substance creates image, so image is a product of substance, so therefore it could be everything, a galaxy of signifiers/not a structure of signifiers -> constitute, undo, reconstitute etc. -. UNREAD ability of narratives. -> opportunities for adjustment and movement.
-> Towards the end of the 19th century the comfortable idea of nature imitation disintegrated -> F.L.W. was a 19th century man etc. (schreib was) -> poetry is the largest network of relations.
-> NO MATTER what field -> Pre-aesthetic profile/proposition of essential factors in the "art"event, IDEA or foresight is not the work itself.
______________ <- gawking at Rodin's THINKER will not help you a Nickel ->©, not that there would have been faxes today, but do you see a copyright or a drinking fountain ? Fill empty fields with your interpretation and enter the sweepstakes.
Shapes, surfaces and plants do not model interior space -> it is about the volumes standing freely in the open and the interaction of these volumes -> aspects of volumes, ratios -> example: a single legged chair is a pure shell structure,...space frames ! -> ... only flirting with the past, nibbling and random details, merging the present and the future together ... counter acting ... entering the inner meaning and content
-> Interior space <- space of interpenetration -> Exterior space -> the continuity of human experience since the past is constantly alive, there is no need to imitate former "styles" -> it is a connecting to the eternal present. -> the chair looks at you, you do not look at the chair -> the system is the solution -> changing mental processing -> changing social environment -> Hirn, Augen, Ohren -> twilight zone, opportunities, system access (money, connections...), feedback loop, applied intra-psychic psychology-"believes-desires" -> dominate or be dominated -> information verses energy -> feed forward-feed backward -> future behaviors designed to achieve some goal-OUTPUT -> is designed, planned as a planned sequence of outputs that your mind predicts will move you to some or desired goal -> Twilight zone helps to meet the demands of daily living -> emergent properties, a picture emerges -> Movement results, sequences of movements result in body -> consciousness/mind, body, environment,...interactions -> you always need an environment to be conscious of -> KOENIG 1 Monar Chie, das Ende von Sozialismus/eine Tragoedie ?, ein mentaler Rueckschritt ?, Fortune 100, 500, 1000, Vorstaende davon Koenige/Despoten, nein nein nein, vollzieht die USA einen merger mit Europa/vice versa. Gehts denn um ueberhaupt was anderes als Macht -> sleeper effect (delayed treatment effect) -> max. 13.3 % VAT.
Arc welding was invented 1881 by Auguste de Meritens -> USA 1920/nicht alles, 1926 komplett -> Westinghouse Comp. -> Konrad Wachsmann (mobile truss) -> a three dimensional arrangement of trusses is known as a space frame -> a truss bridge is in effect a prismatic space frame.
-> New discipline rather than new technology is a fundamental factor in transformation -> act boldly and purposefully -> education alone is insufficient -> Virtue, knowledge, prudence, authority, and success -> virtue consists of uprightness of life, zeal in enterprise, diligence in service, valor in danger, hardiness in action, swiftness in execution -> acquiring, holding, increasing (political power) -> Political power is acquired by conspiracy and is preserved by counter, counter, counter-conspiracy -> Punish evil severely, reward skill, competence, goodness - encourage initiative, enterprise and industry -> One of the crucial ingredients in successful leadership is the talent to appear to be what one is not, as long as actual ability is not counterfeited. -> One must not repeat, one must only find new ways.
-> The principle of balloon framing is the true one for strength, as well as economy (40% less money than a mortise and tenon frame) -> 2 people can do with ease that 20 men could do on an old fashioned frame (1869) -> see also -> Font-De-Gaume (Dordogne) -> Techtiforms 4000 BC -> The human scale = planning for growth, recovery of+reconquering intimacy of intimate life -> Balloon framing is applied as well to the construction of corporate layouts.
