Chapter 2 Fire and Earth black 25% h.ours of work 135 brain work lot cyan 75% london 50% Introduction paper 80% The most common perception of a volcano is of a conical mountain, spewing lava and poisonous gases from a crater at its summit. This describes just one of many types of volcano, and the features of volcanoes are much more complicated. The structure and behavior of volcanoes depends on a number of factors. Some volcanoes have rugged peaks formed by lava domes rather than a summit crater, whereas others present landscape features such as massive plateaus. Vents that issue volcanic material (lava, which is what magma is called once it has escaped to the surface, and ash) and gases (mainly steam and magmatic milan 40% 1 W.H.

Many of these vents give rise to smaller cones such as Pu’u ‘Ō’ō on a flank of Hawaii’s Kīlauea. Other types of volcano include cryovolcanoes (or ice volcanoes), particularly on some moons of Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune; and mud volcanoes, which are formations often not associated with known magmatic activity. Active mud volcanoes tend to involve temperatures much lower than those of igneous volcanoes, except when a mud volcano is actually a vent of an igneous volcano. 3 work lot science 40% talent 40% < 2% > 40% Anak Krakatau, the island formed after the destruction of Krakatoa in 1883, has grown at an average rate of five inches (13 cm) per week since the 1950s.

In this case, the oceanic plate subducts, or submerges under the continental plate forming a deep ocean trench just offshore. Water released from the subducting plate lowers the melting temperature of the overlying mantle wedge, creating magma. This magma tends to be very viscous due to its high silica content, so often does not reach the surface and cools at depth. When it does reach the surface, a volcano is formed. 32 103 13 These so-called hotspots, for example at Hawaii, can occur far from plate boundaries. Hotspot volcanoes are also found elsewhere in the solar system, especially on rocky planets and moons. 40 Tambora (Indonesia) Krakatau (Indonesia) Volcanoes can also form where there is stretching and thinning of the Earth’s crust (called non-hotspot intraplate volcanism), such as in the East African Rift, the Wells Gray-Clearwater volcanic field and the Rio Grande Rift in North America.

Chapter 2 Fire and Earth The Cell Earthquakes The cell is the functional basic unit of life. It is the smallest unit of life that is classified as a living thing, and is often called the building block of life. An earthquake (also known as a quake, tremor or temblor) is the result of a sudden release of energy in the Earth’s crust that creates seismic waves. It was discovered by Robert Hooke and is the functional unit of all known living organisms. Some organisms, such as most bacteria, are unicellular (consist of a single cell). At the Earth’s surface, earthquakes manifest themselves by shaking and sometimes displacing the ground. When a large earthquake epicenter is located offshore, the seabed sometimes suffers sufficient displacement to cause a tsunami. The shaking in earthquakes can also trigger landslides and occasionally volcanic activity. Other organisms, such as humans, are multicellular. Humans have about 100 trillion or 1014 cells; a typical cell size is 10 µm and a typical cell mass is 1 nanogram. In its most generic sense, the word earthquake is used to describe any seismic event—whether a natural phenomenon or an event caused by humans—that generates seismic waves. Earthquakes are caused mostly by rupture of geological faults, but also by volcanic activity, landslides, mine blasts, and nuclear experiments. An earthquake’s point of initial rupture is called its focus or hypocenter. The term epicenter refers to the point at ground level directly above the hypocenter. The largest cells are about 135 µm in the anterior horn in the spinal cord while granule cells in the cerebellum, the smallest, can be some 4 µm and the longest cell can reach from the toe to the lower brain stem (Pseudounipolar cells). The largest known cells are unfertilised ostrich egg cells which weigh 3.3 pounds.[3][4] In 1835, before the final cell theory was developed, Jan Evangelista Purkyně observed small “granules” while looking at the plant tissue through a microscope. The cell theory, first developed in 1839 by Matthias Jakob Schleiden and Theodor Schwann, states that all organisms are composed of one or more cells, that all cells come from preexisting cells, that vital functions of an organism occur within cells, and that all cells contain the hereditary information necessary for regulating cell functions and for transmitting information to the next generation of cells. 45 Science by Designers The deadliest volcanos eruptions Historical timeline of the tragedies Chapter 2 Fire and Earth The Earth’s internal structure The Earth has an outer silicate solid crust, a highly viscous mantle, a liquid outer core that is much less viscous than the mantle, and a solid inner core. There are three different metatypes of eruptions. The most well-observed are magmatic eruptions, which involve the decompression of gas within magma that propels it forward. Phreatomagmatic eruptions are another type of volcanic eruption, driven by a the compression of gas within magma, the direct opposite of the process powering magmatic activity. The last eruptive metatype is the Phreatic eruption, which is driven by the superheating of steam via contact with magma; these eruptive types often exhibit no magmatic release, instead causing the granulation of existing rock. The interior structure of the Earth, similar to the outer, is layered. These layers can be defined by either their chemical or their rheological properties. Scientific understanding of Earth’s internal structure is based on observations of topography and bathymetry, observations of rock in outcrop, samples brought to the surface from greater depths by volcanic activity, analysis of the seismic waves that pass through the Earth, measurements of the gravity field of the Earth, and experiments with crystalline solids at pressures and temperatures characteristic of the Earth’s deep interior.

Several types of volcanic eruptions have been distinguished by volcanologists. These are often named after famous volcanoes where that type of behavior has been observed. Some volcanoes may exhibit only one characteristic type of eruption during a period of activity, while others may display an entire sequence of types all in one eruptive series. 45 Chapter 2 45 THE SUMMER OF ACID RAIN POMPEII BURIED 10,000 3,360 15,000 9,350 18,000 2,000 4,000 1,151 Vesuvius (Italy) Mt.

Esempio pagine per la sezione relativa agli studi e ai loro progetti. In terms of representation, how do you fashion your studio to convey the right message to your clients when they visit? — 15 years ago we were looking for an office space. We ended up at the Diepeveen building, a national monument. The building, formerly the premises of ironware company Diepeveen, was designed in 1929 by architect W. Kromhout. The prominent tower has a spiralling staircase, which had no function other than advertising the company name to ships passing on the river and harbours nearby. The neighbourhood, situated on the outskirts of the city next to the harbour, is a bit shabby and rough, but it is also an inspiring place, full of energy, venture and change. This characterizes Rotterdam, as a trade and business city. We like this atmosphere. — It’s renewing, fresh and light, as the character of GROUP A. There is a good balance between the monumental character of the building and the modern refurbishment. This is the message we radiate to our clients. In what way do you interact with your surrounding neighbourhood, and are there locational advantages to being in the neighbourhood you’re in? — The boldness and intensity of our neighbourhood inspire us to create more beautiful architecture. In addition, there is an abundance of ventures in the local area, mostly small cultural businesses: we are in the middle of inspirational people. For some projects we like to team up with other enterprises. For example a copywriter next door is working with us on a book at this moment. What is your general work method and approach to architecture? — We have always been motivated by a desire to learn. Working on different architectural typologies and collaborations with new clients has always given us the opportunity to develop our skills. This dialogue, the challenge of the new and the learning process, which are related, support us to continually make further progress in our work. Progress and change are at the core of our existence as architects: nothing is to be considered as static, as an inescapable fact. Our approach of dialogue and exchange of knowledge is the principle mindset for our office and provides us with the opportunity to approach each design project as a fresh and dynamic process. The way people live, work, relax is dynamic, which requires an open mind. Because of this attitude GROUP A is able to think laterally without being restricted. This enables us to clearly think out of the box and arrive at fresh and unexpected design solutions that define and expose the essence of the commission. In what way does the city in which you practice effect the day-to-day work of the studio and the work that you produce? Nothing is to be “considered static, as an inescapable fact ” — Rotterdam has a profoundly modern architectural tradition, mainly because the city centre had to be completely rebuilt after being destroyed during the Second World War. This also meant a chance for architects and urban planners to create something altogether new and different. This culture has remained dominant ever since. Rotterdam is a city that is perpetually changing, in permanent motion, which is, of course, also at the heart of the culture of GROUP A. In terms of functionalism, how do you fashion your studio to meet the demands of your own particular work method? How has communication technology changed the way your studio operates? — We consider our office space as a manifestation of our approach and culture: it’s an open space, light and airy. The team effort is central to GROUP A and the design of this studio. It is an inviting space, which inspires people to improve their own specific talents, to develop themselves and the office as a whole. The complete ovearhaul of the interior is exemplary of the ‘hands-on’ approach we hold dear: we managed everything - from design straight through to the execution of the whole project. The end result is an office with an inspiring atmosphere, in which our colleagues enjoy their work, can relax, and even cook up a meal together. — We have always been interested in the progression of communication technology. Besides our website, that shows what we do, we have our Blog, GROUP A LIVE, that shows the social and cultural aspects of our studio. Everybody in our office is welcome to post articles on it, to spread ideas and to share knowledge and experience. Further more, we make use of the most advanced drawing software including a home-built database system, developed by one of our partners. With this system we can work fast and efficient, because it’s fine-tuned to our wishes. 5 9 6 | StudioSpace | Europe | Group A “The complete overhaul of the interior is exemplary of the ‘hands-on’ approach that we hold dear” 10 | StudioSpace | Europe | Group A Group A Inspiration/Influence Inspiration is a city “thatrotterdam is perpetually Client Institution changing, in permanent motion 23 km 3.1 km Bp Refinery Stadshuis Architecture Institute Rotterdam Netherlands Architecture Institute Museumpark Blaak 8 3.5 km Blauwhoed 6.8 km Cube Houses List five buildings/places in the city that you seek inspiration from. 3.3 km Rotterdam itself inspires us. Not any buildings in particular, although there is an abundance of beautiful and interesting places. It’s the city as a whole, consisting of a rich array of different styles. Social housing from the seventies, next to modern day skyscrapers with expensive penthouses on top, old monumental buildings next to modern architecture. This collage city, with the river Maas running through it, with it’s the immense harbour, is an exhilarating and inspiring habitat. 1.7 km Kunstal Group A List the institutions/organizations/clients in the city that have helped you develop your practice and thoughts on architecture. Montevideo 2.6 km Rotterdam as a typical “architectural minded city” has many developers. We are in frequent contact with Rotterdam based institutes like the NAI (National Architectural Institute) and AIR (Architecture Institute Rotterdam). Amongst other things, AIR organizes architectural tours, which give people a chance to see buildings in a different way, and gives us a chance to show our work to the public. We have been asked by one of our clients, BP Refinery, to design a new head office at the refinery terrain in the harbour of Rotterdam. We had to design a building that was “blast proof”, in itself an interesting challenge. In addition we are thrilled to have a chance to build in the harbour district, the quintessence of Rotterdam. At the moment we are realising an office building in the historic city centre: Blaak 8, commissioned by the developer Blauwhoed. We are very proud to see our own creation in the middle of the city, making a change in the skyline of Rotterdam.

In the context of this new graduate program, which is compulsory to gain membership to the local professional association, the students have to choose a specialization between six different orientations: Explorations in Architectural Design, Conservation of the Built Environment, Project Management, Computer-Aided Design, Urban Architecture, and Building Systems. Following the pedagogical model of the undergraduate B.Arch. program, each of these orientations is organized around a series of teaching studios. It is in this context that Professor Jean-Pierre Chupin, teacher in charge of the Explorations in Architectural Design specialization, set up the Ouvroir de Projets Potentiels (OUPROPO), the main teaching studio for this specialization and the last studio before the Final Thesis Project which concludes the academic education for the future professional architects. However, visiting the OUPROPO and witnessing the uncanny operations of its students, one would be hard pressed to recognize in this learning space administratively labelled as a studio any of the usual characteristics or dynamics of the traditional architectural pedagogical model. Because, as is implied by its name, the OUPROPO is not studio: it is an ouvroir. Vollor repedi qui il in consequi occulle ssimusc idundeb itinctem. Num, ventium, accus repuda nonecaborum quat quis dolupta turempedi officte ndipsam ut fuga. 9 Bechara Helal is a doctoral student in Architecture at the Université de Montréal. He graduated in engineering at the École Polytetchnique and holds a Masters in architectural design. He has worked for prominent architectural firms such as Saucier + Perrotte and is regularly involved in teaching in graduate studios in architecture, such as the OUPROPO studio directed by Prof. Jean-Pierre Chupin. The research thesis he currently works on within the framework of the L.E.A.P (Laboratoire d’Étude de l’Architecture Potentielle) deals with the notions of experimentation and the laboratory as mental and physical spaces for the production of architectural knowledge. Workshops, Studios and Pedagogical Process The OUPROPO, which can be roughly translated as Workshop of Potential Projects, is a clear and direct reference to the OULIPO (Ouvroir de Littérature Potentielle), a sub-committee of the Collège de Pataphysique cofounded in 1960 by writer and poet Raymond Queneau and engineer and mathematician François Le Lionnais. The word “ouvroir” in the naming of this experimental literary group is used in the original sense of the term, namely a “place where many persons work together, in particular in a military arsenal.” This definition implies two main characteristics for this workspace: first, a type of work related to the manufacture of objects, and second, a structure of work based on collaboration. In this sense, the best translation in English of “ouvroir” would be “workshop” for which the Oxford English Dictionary gives two definitions: “a meeting for discussion, study, experiment, etc., originally in education or the arts, but now in any field” and “a room or building in which manual or industrial work is carried on.” By contrast, a studio is traditionally defined as “the work-room of a sculptor, a painter or a photographer” (Oxford English Dictionary) or as “a place for the study of an art” (Merriam-Webster Collegiate Dictionary). It is a place directly linked to the artistic field. Both the workshop and the studio are places of production and learning, but by comparing them, one can highlight two major differences. The first difference touches on the type of work carried out. The activity in the studio can be seen Vollor repedi qui il in consequi occulle ssimusc idundeb itinctem. Num, ventium, accus repuda nonecaborum quat quis dolupta turempedi officte ndipsam ut fuga. as focused on the production of a unique artistic object seen as an end-result. This is in contrast with the activity that takes place in the workshop, which is concerned less with the result of the production process than with the industrial structures that will make possible the production and manufacture of goods and objects in larger quantities. In other words, work in the studio can be best described by the resulting product whereas work in the workshop is better defined by the production processes structuring product manufacturing. The second difference addresses the relationship between the actors working within the spaces. The studio is where the artist creates in solitary confinement. If more people work in the studio, it usually is as part of a hierarchical structure dominated by the central figure of the master who dictates his intentions to his assistants and disciples. In stark contrast with this “pre-determined vertical chain of authority that works from the top down” as experimental architect Lebbeus Woods defines hierarchy, the internal structure of the 10 | StudioSpace | Training Architects 11 DEREK PIGRUM & MARCUS KOERNE The Architects’ Studio as ‘Switchboard’ between the Inner and Outer World INFORMATIONAL OBJECTS books professional journals catalogues This essay has its origins in conversations between creativity researcher, author and practicing artist Derek Pigrum and the interior architect and designer Marcus Koerner, in the ambiance of a traditional Viennese café- a place that in itself has played a role in the creativity of artists, writers and architects past and present. The quotations from Koerner are from his written account that Pigrum has translated from German. In addition to this are excerpts from recent interview notes with Koerner. The reason why so little attention has been paid to the role of the studio as the site of architectural practice is that, like all such places, it has the quality of a second nature, of ingrained habits and an intimate familiarity. We tend to overlook the role it plays in the extraordinary creative activity that produces much of our built environment. The role of the studio space in the creativity of architects reveals a dependency on the nature of the place of the studio as an intermediate area, as what Koerner describes as a ‘switchboard’ between the inner and the outer that promotes the generation, modification and development of ideas (see Pigrum 2001 and 2009). The way the architect orders the studio determines the world of things encountered every day - things ‘readily available’ and ‘ready-tohand’. This essay attempts to show that the studio is a third place between the subjective inner world and objective external reality.

He has published numerous papers on creativity and is ‘an international leader in the field of creativity research’. His book ‘Teaching Creativity: Transitional Multi-Mode Practices’ published by continuum in 2002 will come out in paper back in the USA and UK before the end of 2011. Marcus Körner is a Designer born in Vienna in 1971 where he lives and works. In 2001 he launched his own studio there. For the last 20 years he has been involved in architectural and design processes. That’s why his M.A. thesis investigated the uses of architectural sketching. His particular interest is the sketching process in art, design and architecture.

The design studio that is found at the core of architectural education can be traced back to the French Beaux-Arts tradition and is closely related to the artistic studio model. In the context of the architectural design studio, the student is faced with a design problem – usually consisting of a site and a program. He will work towards the formulation of an adequate solution to this problem under the guidance of the studio instructor. Following the hierarchical structure of the artistic studio, the master/teacher is at the centre of the process and the disciple/student acquires knowledge by being in contact with this holder of professional expertise through some kind of osmosis. As Dana Cuff writes, “the studio instructor will be [the students’] semester-long guide into the mysteries of design.” Traditional architectural education is largely a repetition of this process of assisted problem-solving, with the student left alone to build a personal method for solving 20 | StudioSpace | Training Architects in the studio, the instruments, paper, equipment, tools, materials, drawings and resources, are at some level of consciousness continually taken into account. The ‘round-about-us’ of the studio involves a continual acquaintance and a preference for certain schemas that enhance creative possibilities and solutions. The architect Steven Holl states, ‘My office is as messy as an artist’s studio but in the mess I see something that will become a part of my creative process’ (Krasny, 2009, p.70). The architect Yona Friedman has an ever-expanding collection of bricole that stretches across the walls and ceiling of his work space (see Krasny, 2008, pp. 52-57). Bricolage activity in the studio often takes the form of a kind of aside or displacement activity, a polar relation between intense activity and the repose necessary to the architect’s idea generation and development. Thus, in a sense, bricolage leads the architect away and then back to his immediate concern. Pigrum has written about this phenomena and the relation of gathering and thinking in the studios and workspaces of writers, composers and artists (See Pigrum, 2011). Koerner’s prefers to call his studio his ‘workshop,’ and classifies the objects and images it contains as follows: • ‘objects of an informational character • objects that aid inspiration • objects that involve representations of • • • different kinds from photos to sketches objects that aid unfocused inspiration objects of a documentary character objects that serve as tools. Koerner goes on to state that ‘the overlap between these various objects determines the studio space’. Koerner drew the diagram below to show the relation of these objects within the studio. Koerner states that: ‘at the beginning of a project I gather information on the one hand in books, journals, catalogues and so on, and on the other hand, material directly related to the project such as plans, photos etc. In this phase of seeking inspiration the focus is widened to include previous projects, material samples and found objects as well as autonomous artistic works’. These artistic works are most often related to the theme of time and with a clear compositional character, and according to Koerner, ‘act as a kind of bridge or coupling device to his idea generation and development’. On one occasion quite recently, he brought a small stone to our meeting stating ‘that it usually lies within view on his shelf, and acts as a source of inspiration, and, on the rare occasion when I pick it up, it acts as a kind of coupling in that part of the process that concerns formal and material questions’. Whatever way the stone is turned it has a schematic resemblance to something; now a crocodile, now a bird. Koerner states ‘in some ways this stone works like Freud’s collection of ancient figurines that he kept in view on his desk. It leads to a solution without providing one itself but simply as a means to conduct a first search and to ascertain their relevance to my present concerns’. Koerner went on to state that ‘the process of representation leads to a change in the physical appearance of the studio itself, because now the relevant photos, newspaper cuttings, sketches, plans and models are placed in a collage- like arrangement on panels’. The architect Jon Jerda adopts much the same procedure when he states, ‘the colored print-outs that show local characteristics hang beside each other, indeed sometimes over each other, so as to develop solutions to problems by means of visual clusters of themes’ (Krasny, 2009, p.75). architectural problems after having been exposed to the sometimes similar but often different and even opposing methods, theories and ideologies of a multitude of studio instructors. As Jean-Pierre Chupin notes, this is “a system that tries to teach architecture but sometimes forgets to train architects.” It is with this major limitation of the studio model in mind that Professor Chupin set up the OUPROPO, in 2001 by exporting the model of the OULIPO in architectural education. The OUPROPO is not a studio because there is no architectural problem to solve and therefore no formal solution to find. As Marcel Duchamp – himself an OULIPO member – famously stated: “There is no solution, because there is no problem.” Instead of being confronted by an elaborate program and a physical site, the OUPROPO student is only given a general theme. Over the years, the themes have greatly varied, from the more specific (“The swimming pool as a place of the body in Montreal” in 2001) to the more general (“The future in three moments: 2027, 2047, Lefebvre states: In Koerner’s studio almost all the furniture and containers are mobile and easily moved from one place to another such that, according to his needs, things can be arranged in ways that facilitate the study and development of the project. In the sketch he made below only the table on the left is a permanent fixture. Koerner states: ‘the surface of my vintage “drawing machine” can be tilted horizontally; an aeroplane trolley is used for storage purposes; a serving trolley where project information and models are placed; the prototype of a table I designed that is easily assembled serves to put things on that are not in immediate use. From my desk in my direct line of vision I have a panel with magnets to which I can attach pictures, clippings and other material’ ‘Space is continually produced and reproduced, and as such is to be understood as active: the analysis of the production of space does not concern the ordering of material objects and artifacts, but rather the practical, mental and symbolic in their relation to these objects’ (in Schmid, 2010, p.321). As Koerner states ‘the architect’s studio is not a “frozen’ space” but rather one where every change within it produces a new configuration of possibilities and potentialities that presents us with a range of metaphorical meanings’, a space permeated by ambiguity, that in its indeterminacy constitutes a space of possibilities and potentiality and the move from potentiality to actualization. Koerner states that, ‘after the transformation of the studio there usually follows a phase of unfocused seeking for inspiration during which he listens to music, looks through books and journals, thumbs through magazines, and sometimes watches TV.’ He is particularly interested in the way the architect Gary Chang conceives of film because ‘it lets you connect all the key issues you are thinking of, you find the references much more quickly’, (Krasny, 2009, p.50). Koerner states: The philosopher Martin Heidegger (1962) suggests that every entity that is at hand has different conditions of closeness: the ‘present-athand’ where things are not proximally given, (Heidegger, 1962, p. 135) and the ‘ready-tohand’ where the thing and our immediate concerns converge, (see Pigrum, 2011). Very often the ready-to–hand of note-paper, newsprint, envelopes or the reverse side of printed matter, is not only reliably available in the work environment but is something that can be left around, re-found, recovered or destroyed (see Pigrum, 2009, 2011). These are ways of working based on an immediate sensory and imaginative 21 Vollor repedi qui il in consequi occulle ssimusc idundeb itinctem. Num, ventium, accus repuda nonecaborum quat quis dolupta turempedi officte ndipsam ut fuga. produce links to the experimental stage of the project, of formal and material relations where I begin to see something in these objects as something else’. The studio as a ‘switchboard’ between what is put there and what we need for our creative concerns, between the inner and outer world is based on an understanding of the studio as a variation on what Donald Winnicott (1971) termed ‘potential space’. The term ‘potential space’ was coined in the post-Freudian psychoanalytic theory of Winnicott (1971) on early child development as having the explanatory power to identify the roots of human creativity. Winnicott’s theory has gained adherents from a broad spectrum of people involved in creative activity (see Pigrum 2009, Nussbaum, 2001 , Giddens, 1991, Rudnynsky 1993, Agamben, 1993). While it is beyond the scope of this essay to address this theme in any detail, it is of great interest that Winnicott’s ‘potential space’ is closely linked to the ‘readily available’, ‘transitional object’, and dependent on a physical and emotional environment conducive to the mediation between the inner and outer world that is characteristic of the architect’s studio. The architect’s studio is a ‘potential space’ for things that are the intermediate products of creative activity: sketches, concepts, models, reproductions, montages and other inspirational objects and tools that serve as discursive media that enrich the information at the disposal of the drafting process. Nienihic itibero “riatatusam faciam 12 | StudioSpace | Training Architects encounter with the concrete given of the scrap of paper, or the object. Lefebvre(1991) developed ideas on space eminently applicable to the architect’s studio. The architect develops the ability to locate the body in its immediate surroundings producing over time a ‘practico-sensory realm’; a dense network of ever-changing relations between the inner and outer that exceeds the Cartesian model of space, divorced from experience, where things are isolated, static and arranged on lifeless co-ordinates, but rather as a ‘lived space’ that houses objects imbued with meaning, that makes possible the perception of links and interactions between things, of the wresting of ideas. 2107” in 2007) or the more technical (“Research laboratories on the architecture of life” in 2011). The OUPROPO theme is a general context with minimum limitations that is seen as a simple pretext for the student to develop a personal understanding of the processes of architecture. This is done through two successive sets of operations. Instead of being asked to propose a final formal solution to a design problem, the student must, in the first phase, through a series of divergent explorations, identify a specific research question based on the proposed theme that will allow him to build a personal architectural problem. During the second phase, through a series of convergent explorations, the student designs the principles that will structure and frame potential architectural projects in relation with the problem he previously set up. In a way, the OUPROPO students are similar to the OULIPO authors which Raymond Queneau likened to “rats who build the labyrinth from which they plan to escape”. By refocusing the attention of the students away from the dynamics of problem-solving and ‘I do not consider this to be work but am aware that all the time I keep the first phases of idea development in view. This was also the time in which I think of the project as ‘transportable’, because it is uppermost in my mind and can be carried around as a tangible representation. In this phase I also talk to other people, not architects, about the project. Conversations that involve the ‘sketch on a serviette’ where, as I talk and draw, new ideas come to mind’. A colleague of Alvaro Aalto reported that he, ‘considered these “napkin sketches”, as having, ‘just as important a role as the ones made on the plain backs of the packages of his favorite cigarettes’ (ibid, 2009, p.17). During this phase Koerner states, ‘that other objects related to my personal history take on a renewed significance because these objects 22 | StudioSpace | Training Architects faciand isciducium voluptae. Sae offictur rem. Ugiam, eaqbus. ” Koerner states: ‘I use prototypes and developmental models, visualizations, project information from past commissions and pieces of art to document my work. These can serve as information and inspiration for future projects or as the basis for the further development of ideas that were never realized, or only partially completed, but are also a mode of introspective exploration’. Denis Scott Brown talks about ‘the long history of the office in the form of sketches, plans, models, slides, collected objects and publications’ (Krasny, 2009, p.127) or ‘the interaction of the existing and its potential’ (ibid). In Koerner’s view ‘this gives rise to a kind of museum of one’s own production in the real sense of communication. The knowledge gained from this documentary research activity flows into new tasks providing a foothold for further work’ Koerner states that, in his studio: Matteo Astolfi | Studio Training Architects: The Uncanny Pedagogical Laboratory of the OUPROPO Enric Rosich / Packaging Grafica per il packaging del prodotto dello chef Spagnolo Enric Rosich, realizzato per Solegraells presso Cosmic, Barcelona (Spagna). www.cosmic.es Matteo Astolfi | Studio Solegraells Enric Rosich / Packaging presso Cosmic — Barcelona I tre diversi packaging andati in produzione Matteo Astolfi | Studio Solegraells Rosalba Piccinni / Music Art direction, concept, fotografie, grafica per l’album d’esordio di Rosalba Piccinni Matteo Astolfi | Studio Rosalba Piccinni Interno del packaging Matteo Astolfi | Studio Rosalba Piccinni / Music Rosalba Piccinni / Music ARRIVI ROSALBA PICCINNI ARRIVI Arrivi da luoghi che si vedono poco / con passo che si incontra di rado / ma gli occhi non dimentico mai / La vedi quella ferita sulla terra / che prima s’apre e prima ci osserva / è un occhio grande su di noi / Sanno di te le nubi basse d’africa / sanno di noi le panchine il cane / il fuoco dei silenzi miei / Tu scegli e il vento si curva sulla faccia / la polvere si aggrappa forte / al cuore bruno della luna / E si vede ora che crescono le onde / si difende la tua bocca / figlia della gioventù / Sanno di te le nubi basse d’africa / sanno di noi le panchine il cane / il fuoco dei silenzi miei / Appoggi il fieno bianco dei ricordi / superata la tempesta / cosa pensa il gatto sale / nero sulla tavola le prugne / fonde la candela cede / in silenzio ci si bacia / Sanno di te le nubi basse d’africa / sanno di noi le panchine il cane / il fuoco dei silenzi miei Musica: Simone Pirovano Parole: S.
