Midterm Review 10/14/2009
Midterm Review Layout
Be printed out and pinned up before the start of class on Wednesday October 14, 2009 @ 8:30am.
We will pin up on the wall in the studio as well as the hallway wall. I will stop by studio on Tuesday to assign spots to pin up (if I'm able - I'm sick again). If I can't come up to studio I will email you your pinup spots.

Assignment 8
Path + Structure II
Due: Beginning of class Wedneday, September 30, 2009.

Due: Beginning of class Wedneday, September 30, 2009.
Create a second iteration of the physical Path + Structure model, expanding on the emergent conceptual framework identified during the last desk crit and group discussion.
Include the following new parameters in your work:
1. 1/8" x 1/8" is too thick for the structure, use something thinner.
2. Use the structure to reinforce your conceptual reading of your composition.
3. Occupy the 5" x 6" x 8" bounding box with your structure. The structural composition does not exist in service to the spatial paths, but rather the two co-exist and emphasize the same concept.

Assignment 6
Path 2D >> 3D II
Produce a second iteration of the 2D (surface) path as per Assignment 04 using the following additional guidelines:
1. Each of the two paths will be continuous (no forks in the road, so to speak)
2. No angles (ramps) steeper than 45 degrees, and no more than 2 different vertical angles in the assignment.
3. Use economy of means , you want to get from one corner to the other farthest corner, period (no 'sight-seeing' involved). Use ramps to negotiate ‘vertical’ changes (keeping rule #2 in mind). In other words, negotiate the space with fewer, rather than more moves.
Translate the surface paths into spatial paths - as per Assignment 05 - using the following new guideline:
1. The cross section of the spatial path must be between 1/2" to 1"
Submit draft and model FormZ files, and Illustrator files for the format pinned up in studio: 11x17 - A. Interior Spatial Path B. Exterior Spatial Path C. Composite Spatial Paths, 11x17 - A. Interior Surface Path B. Exterior Surface Path C. Composite Surface Paths D. Composite Surface Paths in situ with formal composition.
Be printed and pinned up at the beginning class Monday, September 21.

Assignment 04
Object Analysis
I have placed an .AI file 11x17 template in the archlab folder. If you have a problem with the template for some reason, make you own: .5" border on all sides, file name in bottom left in 8pt Calibri font.
