SHELTER-PRESS RELEASE

PRESS RELEASE

Exposição “Abrigo /Temporary” na Galeria dos Leões

Sexta - feira, dia 17 de Julho de 2010, às 16h, a Faculdade de Belas Artes apresenta uma nova exposição na Galeria dos Leões, situada no edifício da Reitoria, denominada “Abrigo /Shelter”.
O projecto da exposição envolveu os alunos de Belas Artes, Design, Arquitectura e outras áreas, e foi coordenado pelos comissários da exposição, Professora Graciela Machado da FBAUP e Professor Gonçalo Furtado da FAUP.
A instalação resulta da interacção de itens provenientes do projecto de investigação pluridisciplinar nº 97 intitulado “Modelação de componentes Arquitectónicos em materiais compostos para instalações de abrigos temporários”, actualmente em curso na UP, e de itens realizados nas oficinas de técnicas de impressão da FBAUP. Muitos destes items estendem o conceito de construção em camadas também à gravura como processo de acumulação, tendo sido ensaiadas várias impressões e considerados distintos materiais e técnicas de registo.
O ambiente expositivo descreve um processo e encontro, mais do que resultados, compondo-se de desenhos de projecto, materiais e protótipos, documentos escritos e audiovisuais, e gravuras de diversas naturezas.
A exposição oferecerá ao público académico e geral um ambiente híbrido entre a investigação académica e o projecto arquitectónico e artístico. Segundo os comissários “enaltece-se a necessidade de cooperação entre a ciência e a arte, assim como entre investigação e participação social ao versar sobre a reincidente necessidade por parte da nossa sociedade de estruturas que temporariamente ofereçam abrigo tanto em situações quotidiano como de emergência.”
Patente até ao dia 29 de Julho de 2010, a exposição “Abrigo / Shelter” pode ser visitada no mesmo horário da Loja da Universidade do Porto, de segunda a sexta-feira, das 10 às 19 horas. A entrada é livre.

Modelling architectural components in composite materials for temporary shelter facilities

André Chaves 1, Gonçalo Furtado2, Jorge Lino3

"This study relates to research conceived within the multidisciplinary project "modulation of architectural components in composite materials for temporary shelter facilities." "The project includes major areas such as architecture, design and engineering." The expected results are to have a prototype visible at the level of possible configurations, durable and aesthetically appealing.
The aim is to obtain a guiding principle that presupposes a use of mathematical language of forms and productive level conceptional objects to architectural components. For such components as the idea of mathematical elements that will organize a theme throughout the study in terms of a taxonomic language to project design and production manufacturing, with the conclusion by evaluating and marketing the product to achieve.
The work is based on the idea that some matter of civil constructions can reuse household waste and inorganic materials abundant in nature and in everyday life, to build temporary shelters, using construction techniques expeditiously. First it will proceed to the dematerialization of the materials in the basic constituents and then the recombination of new materials with desired properties for the manufacture of components necessary to shelters. Proceeds to the modeling of components and their assembly in accordance with procedures optimized for various configurations and applying computational techniques.
The project defines itself at the crossroads between the natural and artificial, between the artisanal and industrial, with procedures in the digital and analog component modeling."

Modelação de componentes arquitectónicos em materiais compostos para instalações de abrigos temporários

A. Chaves, G. Furtado, J. Lino

ABSTRACT:
"O presente estudo relaciona-se com a investigação idealizada no âmbito do projecto pluridisciplinar “modulação de componentes arquitectónicos em materiais compostos para instalações de abrigos temporários”. “O projecto compreende como áreas principais a arquitectura, o design e a engenharia” . Os resultados esperados são a obtenção de um protótipo visível ao nível das configurações possíveis, resistente e esteticamente apelativo.
Pretende-se obter um princípio orientador que pressuponha um uso da linguagem matemática das formas ao nível conceptivo e produtivo de objectos para componentes arquitectónicos. Para tal a ideia de componentes como elementos matemáticos será um tema que organizará todo o estudo em termos de uma linguagem taxonómica para a concepção do projecto e a produção da manufactura, com a conclusão através da avaliação e da comercialização do produto a alcançar.
O trabalho assenta na ideia de que a alguma matéria das construções civis poderá reaproveitar resíduos inorgânicos domésticos e materiais abundantes na natureza e no quotidiano, para a construção de abrigos temporários, através de técnicas de construção expedita. Primeiro proceder-se-á à desmaterialização dos materiais em constituintes básicos e depois à recombinação deste em novos materiais com as propriedades desejadas para a manufactura dos componentes necessários aos abrigos. Procede-se à modelação de componentes e sua assemblagem segundo procedimentos optimizados para obter várias configurações e aplicando técnicas computacionais.
O projecto define-se na charneira entre o natural e o artificial, entre o artesanal e o industrial, com procedimentos analógicos e digitais na modelação de componentes."

ABSTRACT:

This session is dedicated to exploring the exchanges between architecture and the fields of systems research and computational sciences, highlighting the relationships between architecture and mathematics.
Systems research goes back to the war period, and it is concerned with 'organization' from an approach of complexity. The history of the field recalls an expansion of attention up to the level of the planet with the Club of Rome's systemic approach to the global problem (e.g. De Rosbay, 1978) but this dealing with issues of complexity was also paralleled by the acknowledgement of 'uncertainty'.
Systems research embraced a wide field of application; and, as Cybernetics, it became influential throughout the post-war period. There was, undoubtedly, a later 'backlash' against the latter; however, as Scott has mentioned, its concepts permeated such areas as AI, Systems and Emergence Sciences. (Scott, ca.1996) Moreover, a 'second-order cybernetics' arose around the 1970s, acknowledging the presence of the observer in Systems, and leading to theoretical developments such as 'Autopoiesis’, ‘Conversation Theory’ etc. At the time, computation became ubiquitous, and its later connection with telecommunications led to cyberspace and to the Information Society in which we now live.
At an early date, systems research, cybernetics and computational sciences, went on to interfere in the fields of Art and Architecture. Early occurrences included the work of Schoffer, Pask, Jones, Alexander and Negroponte work, and they were fuelled by a desire to overcome the rigid architecture and planning of modernism, by representing the dynamics of time. Progressively, digital space and life also constituted an architectural challenge, at the levels of the city's building and design practice. The earliest approaches date back to the early 1990s, and advanced explorations were made by architects such as Novak (on ‘Transvergence’) and Frazer (on ‘Evolutionary Architecture’).
To a certain extent, the current digital architectural culture is rooted in cybernetics, and the systems approach enables a systemic focus of contemporary cities, and the ecological global problem. Today, Architecture's desire for a more evolving environment is leading to interest in the new sciences of Emergence and Complexity, which Jencks even associates to a ‘New Paradigm in Architecture’.
The session will consists of small presentations focusing important experiences related to architecture and mathematics. The main areas of interest are: systems research, second-order cybernetics, computational sciences, architectural morphogenesis and sustainability. (Presentation focused on topics such as complex systems, self-organization, emergence, topology, CAD-CAM, virtual environments and cyberspace, as well as on architects, designs and buildings which illustrate the relationship between architecture and mathematics will be welcome.) They are the roots sources of a future, effective built environment that could evolve.

ABSTRACT:

The study of the relationship between Information, Architecture and Complexity can be accomplished through the study of patterns of relationships, opening up the field for the understanding of architecture as organization.
INFORMATION, ARCHITECTURE, COMPLEXITY
The study of Organization has not been part of the program of science until the discovery of systems of particles and the development of thermodynamics. The understanding of complex systems is parallel to the definition of two major concepts related to organization: on the one side, the concept of Entropy (S) is a measure of the order or disorder in the internal structure of systems of objects, and therefore of its internal complexity; on the other side, the notion of Information (loosely derived from the concept of entropy) expresses the internal organization of a communication system, or the internal order or disorder of a message. The relationship of Entropy to Information must not be underestimated, for it is the key to grasp the little details at play in the game of complex systems.
While the Universe and its constituents tend to a state of maximum entropy or disorder (following the 2nd law of Thermodynamics) there are local enclaves where there is a limited and temporary tendency for organization to increase. Complex Adaptive Systems, such as living organisms but not limited to them, are some of these enclaves: non-linear, dynamic and open, these systems exchange matter and energy (hence information) with their environment, acting as rudimentary information systems. While reacting to the uncertainties of their environment (noise), they increase their internal organization to absorb and respond to it: “order out of noise” in Atlan’s words. In so doing, they defy the 2nd law, creating organization instead of evolving towards a greater state of disorder.
Architecture (that is, the technological production of structures, from its inception to its construction) is also an act of creating order out of disorder, and maintaining it against all odds: a transformation of information into organization. Considered as a complex system, architecture represents the transformation of a certain state of the environment into a more organized one, using energy and raw materials, and the exchange of information with the environment.
Architecture, buildings and cities, has traditionally been seen as a static aggregation of objects, (objects above objects, objects next to objects), while its organization has usually been disregarded. First observed and proposed by Christopher Alexander, Patterns of Relationships are a way to view the built environment from an organizational perspective. Fully understanding this idea and all its consequences can be the first step towards an understanding of architecture as organization. Patterns offer the clue to identify organized structures and distinguish them from bare materials, as we are able to distinguish a cell from the molecules than compose or surround it.
Now widely used to cope with the complexity of information systems, Patterns of Relationships offer an affordable method to capture the organization of architectural objects, understand and decode their internal structure, and upgrade the study of the built environment to the new paradigm of complexity.

ABSTRACT:

Living in the age of scientific, technological and
digital revolution changes our attitude towards information. It
is inevitable to start approaching information not only as a
product of fashionable digital media behavior, but also as a
particular accumulation of facts and activities, transferable bits
of matter, which influence our environment. Architecture not
only exerts spatial influence on our environment, but also it
structures its processes. Acting as such, architecture is
involved into direct representation of informational flows via
organizing spatial systems. Therefore, in the digital era, design
gets more related to transforming different informational
modes into spatial structures.
Transformations of information provide rich
possibilities for conceptualizing space; such transformations
could be achieved by different methodologies. This paper uses
the concept of physical space in contemporary physics, namely
the self-organizational behavior of the space-time framework,
in order to explore various ways of coding information in
design. Analyzing String Theory and its follower M – theory,
the research derives a method for spatial organization of cause
and effect activities resulting in a unified approach towards
design methodology.
This paper explores the concept of movement in the
space-time framework, namely the movement in various
dimensions and in non-Euclidean geometry, in order to develop
a system for achieving a particular design control over
informational activities. Using the topology of space-time in
String Theory and M-theory, a topology produced as an
outcome from that particular movement behavior, the research
proposes a way to handle an informational status in the
environment spatially. Such a design approach, becoming
more and more necessary in the age of the digital, opens room
not only for mere spatial variations, but also for a direction
towards new design morphology; a morphology in which
architecture obtains new spatial value reaching beyond the
label of visionary design.

ABSTRACT:

This paper is concerned with Modernist information systems extending from the pre-war to postwar eras, via the little known Danish émigré architect Knud Lonberg Holm who considered himself an information architect already in the 1920´s. ie someone who organizes the patterns inherent in data, making the complex clear; who views the organization, retrieval and presentation of information as analogous to the problems in designing a building.
After arriving in the US in 1923, Lonberg-Holm expanded his connections to European vanguards, as he entered into a series of parallel professional affiliations in the US, serving as CIAM´s east coast delegate, and in 1932, joining Structural Study Associates: technocratic, anti-aesthetic architects surrounding Buckminster Fuller in the magazine Shelter: “A correlating medium for the forces of architecture”. With the motto: “To do the most with the least”, they encouraged harnessing the Forces Expressive of the Technical Age based on ephemeralization, ecology, and emergence. At the same time he became a staff member of the leading professional journal of the time, Architectural Record, with its family of publications including Sweets Catalog, an essential interface between architects, manufactures and contractors, a compendium of industrially evoluting building materials. In this context he urged city planning based on the organic functions of a community and its culturally based space organizing process. He called for the creation of an economically independent research institute to deal with problems of architecture in an industrial age, and he restructured Sweets Catalog, as an anonymous ideological project authoring a number of books on the design of information with Czech graphic designer Ladislav Sutnar.
He presented an alternative to Sweets to CIAM, a proposal for a dynamic, integrated research and information system dealing with all aspects of environmental controls that would allow for advanced productivity. “Planning for Productivity” 1940, was updated in 1953 as “Development Index: a proposed pattern for organizing and facilitating the flow of information needed by man to further in his own development with particular reference to the development of buildings, communities and other forms of environmental controls”, which offered correlations between cosmos, man and culture, closely aligned with Buckminster Fuller´s systems thinking and his vision of the comprehensive anticipatory designer as “a Harvester of potentials” outside beaurocratic systems, yet able to analyze and deploy technocracy’s products to serve the world’s needs. Lonberg Holm´s master switchboard for data flow was to be updated constantly in line with “new expansions in human knowledge”.
As a class of project that processes data and indexes knowledge, these proposals share an affinity with early modern “world” projects. As Information technologies were subject to the processes of scientific management, such projects aimed to centralize and standardize all knowledge in a single location or to unify norms for international use. The World Brain, World Encyclopedia, World Auxiliary Languages, the International System of Typographic Picture Education were put forth by such diverse figures as H.G. Wells, Paul Otlet,Otto Neurath, up to the 30´s. The Development Index might be situated between those World projects and the later more multimedia Geoscope by Fuller 1962, a floating informational globe, with constantly updated real time broadcasted data about the earth.

ABSTRACT:

This article deals with the fractal geometry applied in architecture. The fractals generative rules can be used to develop the student’ shape grammar. Students use that knowledge to increase their own
shape vocabulary in the architectural design early stages.
FRACTAL SHAPE.
What have the fractals to offer to contemporary architecture? Since Moving Arrows, Eros
and other Errors, 1985’ Peter Eisenman project, some architects continually have used fractal
geometry as shape design instrument. Previously architects included aspects such as fractal
recursiveness, to take an example, in an intuitively way. Nowadays some studies have pointed
appropriate models to use the potential of fractals in architecture.
This study was realized with architecture students and tried to bring the fractal geometry to
the computer-aided architectural design - CAAD. We have elaborated a content called ‘Fractal
Shape’ and it was guided to architecture, concentrating on the generative characteristics of fractals.
This content provides an overview of fractal architecture, it presents methods to use fractals in the
design process and it proposes activities to design early stages. Thus, the fractal order is explored
through generative exercises that deal with concepts of scale, recursivity, self-similarity and
iteration.
The study effort is to make a clear comprehension of fractal geometry as a shape grammar,
with scale transformations, which provides generative rules. When these experiments are applied at
design early stages, it feeds the students' shape vocabulary. It is known that a good design do not
come from a moment of enlightenment. The student identifies patterns, symmetries and design
resources while playing with shapes and scales. The idea is to allow the student to develop his own
shape vocabulary well before advancing the design definition.
We develop a content that relates fractal grammar and architectural design, which we
establish through pedagogical criteria and brought to the students through on-line virtual learning.
The hypertext activities are the creation of fractals guiding regulatory frames, and then to transform
the two dimensional objects to into a three dimensional objects. To do those exercises the student
uses: elements addition and/or subtraction, shape configuration and grouping and specially the
extrusion of fractal objects viewed in plan or section. In these procedures the student selects and
creates shapes, working on ambiguous models. Then they set a proportion and a utility to the object,
in a process called scale and function emergency.
The study of a fractal shape grammar is interesting from a pedagogical point of view when it
groups the contemporary architecture content, shape grammar exercises and computer-aided
architectural design technology. Those are areas of interest of the students involved in this research.
The study of generative systems, shape grammars and design rules is a trend in architecture schools.
Students are also interested in learning contents that are close to the reality of contemporary
architecture. Finally, we understand fractal geometry as one of the tools available for the design
professor which helps to instigate the creativity of the student.
