Interactive Architecture



A couple days ago i was looking further into precedents for my project and came across this paper regarding the ecology of an interactive environment. The article made me start to think about the potential for an isolated site. Patrick and i had discussions about the potential for the device to respond to outside stimulus. I am interested in pursuing the possibility that the device can respond to the elements becoming an active participant of the ecology within it. More importantly the subtle noises, and minimal interaction within the site could create a interesting dialogue between nature and machine. The absence of life makes everything else within contrast that much more. There is always some kind of life within an area. The challenge is generating a space, like a virus that feeds of the existing ecology and brings a new life to it.
