Greece, Vido island Installation Bachelor project GORODA Festival 2012 MArchI, 4 year natural materials, 2012 /5 synthepone
/5
The installation was created during the Goroda architectural festival. Festival task was to create an object according to any philosophical thesis. In our project we tried to express the Jilles Geleuze’s «Rhizome» theory and develop a spatial composition. The construction was made of natural materials found nearby. This expresses the idea of particles flowing into the center and creating the Object. Every piece of nature find its own place in a new organized formation.
Rhizome is a philosophical concept developed by Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari in their Capitalism and Schizophrenia (1972–1980) project. It is what Deleuze calls an «image of thought», based on the botanical rhizome, that apprehends multiplicities. The Rhizone does not begin and doesn’t come to an end, iit is always in the middle, between prophetic,between-life, an intermezzo. The tree is a continuity, and a rhizome - the Conjunction, only the Conjunction. The tree imposes a verb to «be», and a rhizome is weaved from the сonjunction ы«both..and..and». In this conjunction there is enough force to crack and uproot a verb to «be». Where do you go? When do you leave? Where do you want to come. These are useless enough questions. To come back to tabula rasa and again to begin with zero, to search for the beginning or the base - all it includes the false concept of travel and movement. The matter is the middle at all average, on the contrary, is a place where things speed up. «Between the things» means not a localized relation which goes from one to another and back, but a movement in perpendicular direction, cross movement which transfers one and others, a stream without beginning and the end, which washes away the coast and is dispersed in the middle.

Inside
in the object it is warm because of specificity of construction and lighting devices; softness because of natural materials
Boundaries
walls made with the materials found on the island - bamboo contructoin. branches weaving and filling the voids with found nearby materials(leaves,sticks)
Window Intro
A hidden footstep, connected to sound elements(metal sticks), located in the construction of the installation; this part denotes Beginning of interaction material: wooden plank, rope, metal tubes
In the center of the Rhizome takes us back to ourselves, to the place where we all started; at the very culmination we suddenly appear face to face with ourselves in the vacuum space darkness. Through the window we see our reflection in the mirror. Because of location specifity we see only a lighted face in the dark.

Installation ArchFarm Festival 2012 ice blocks, lighting /15
The installation was made during Goroda (Cities) architectural festival. It took place at ArchFarm - a renovated farm 200 km away from Moscow. Main task was that the participants should rethink in their objects the festival theme which was «Fire». We analyzed the meaning of this term and came to Heraclitus ideas. Fire as eternal motion. As a seen form of burning process - it is the most suitable definition of the Element itself in a meaning of a substance that is a everlasting process, «blazing» dynamics of matter. So the fire is constant although it can damp. He also understood outer space as a process of constant burning. So in our object we tried to freeze the moment and stop the constant motion and have it for as long as we want. The edge of the sun, or maybe an unknown star constantly rising on the horizon or constantly setting. Or this is an enormous scale disk which has crashed into a frozen lake and now is glowing illuminating all around.
Object was made with the ice blocks which were pulled out from the lake near the installation area. Due to the fact that the winter was very strong, the ice was thick enough to make a firm wall and also very clear for the lighting. The blocks were stacked one on the other and after fitting with chainsaw they were poured with water and this made them sealed together firmly. The lit object was seen from any part of the ArchFarm territory as the exhibition day was very misty and the light column was very high. The «Sun» stood on its place until the springtime.

Archfarm Installation Bachelor project GORODA Festival 2012 MArchI, 4 year wood trunks, wood for 2012 /23 the float
/23
The installation was created during the Goroda architectural festival in the ArchFarm. The festival theme was «In the place». The little chapel is a chapel for nature. Chapel of a place. A little fragile constrution in a shape of a house with a pitch roof. There’s no inner space, one can just pass through the «concentration» but at the same time be in the environment and see all around.
The object was made with wooden materials. First, the float was build as the object could be installed either in the field or it could be put on the lake. After the volume was made with small aspen trees cleared from the branches and painted white. Installed object had to be lighted and be a point in a route through the ArchFarm lands.

The project was created for the «12 Towers» competition for a monuments at the entramce roads to Moscow. With this simple dot-object qwe tried to solve several problems of our city : -supersaturation of center -excess of car number -a complex and difficult for understanding post-capitalistic environment with excess of street advertisement -ansence of effective system of public transport -very poor involvement of citizens in life and development of the city
To realise the program, we chose a simple form that will work - a volumetric screen with different zones. A person Object was made with the which were pulled out from the lake near the installation area. interacting with the screen canice getblocks any information needed:
Due to the fact that the winter was very strong, the ice was thick enough to make a firm wall and also
very clear for the lighting.and Theroutes blocks were stacked one on the other and after fitting with chainsaw -public transport timetables they were poured with water and this made them sealed together firmly.
-city events
The lit purchase object was seen from any part of the ArchFarm territory as the exhibition day was very misty -tickets and the light column was very high. The «Sun» stood on its place until the springtime.
-take part in interactive discussion of city problems and connect to the city portal
Car users passing by will see the latest news, temperature, traffic jam information - all the needed information. This simple form can make the environment react on it, interact with it and use it. It can become a fullsize screen in the evening, and attract people of the nearby district.

Decentralisation
Moscow activity is very centralized, all the main functions flow to the center and this causes lots pf problems. The city needs to distribute its life into several functional centers.
Innovation
Following the «national idea» of modernisation and innovation, we suggest 8 popular functional city strategies for every administrative district (except central), which would distribute Moscow functions evenly on its territory. As a result secondary centers are formed due to their function (art-center, financial center, education cluster, R&D, etc).

Participation Reactivation
Stimulation of participation - is the main problem in cause of city self-realisation. Function of traditional society of 19 century in the century 21 is always working in the internet area, flowing into the concept of city public space 2.0 - a new instrument of people working reactivation.
Integration
The city center2.0 forms as an interaction of multiplicity of ideas - instead of concentration of sovereign government. From now on the center is not only forming the «national idea», but that’s the ideas interlacing makes it real. City center now is an open public space for unlimited interaction.

People should be the mechanism that creates the City - not only government and business. City can recreate itself only by active participation of people in its life. City as an integer, realising the potential of identity.
