The manipulation of time and space and the ability to create temporal spatial scenarios has defined the digital age. THE CONSTANT IMAGINING AND RE-IMAGINING OF SPATIAL RELATIONSHIPS THROUGH DIGITAL TOOLS HAS LED TO A COGNITIVE SHIFT WHERE INDIVIDUALS NO LONGER PLAY A PASSIVE ROLE WITHIN TIME AND SPACE BUT MANIPULATE IT AT THEIR OWN DISCRETION. While the significance for such digital tools can be seen through success of the companies that make them architecture has yet to realize the virtue in these temporal spatial conditions. AND AS THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES AND CULTURE HAS MATURED, WE HAVE BEGUN TO SEE THE “STATIC RELATIONSHIP” AS IRRELEVANT AND DATED. Brings into question the cultural significance architecture has within digital culture. In order to assert its relevance back into contemporary culture, architecture needs to offer up possible strategies for dealing with temporal and spatial relationships. If it fails to do so it will slowly become irrelevant to the point of its eventual self induced extinction.

Time & Space Phenomenon Time and space involve four dis nct components, length, width, height and the temporal dimension of me. The presence of these proper es allows for quan fied three dimensional movement through space. Proof of its existence is experienced in every aspect of life yet it is the most elusive concept to understand. It’s analyzed mathema cally through physics, conceptually with philosophy and historically within cultures and with good reason. Without it none of the three fields of study would be necessary.

ing would come to pass and the concept of the future would have never been invented. Measurable quali es of life would unfold in a state of melessness and infinite space with no dis ncon between what is and what is not. Reason, order and logic become irrelevant and life would act like a film projector spinning out of control. Each image rota ng at various speeds displaying images in a sequence which tells no story. Most see the rela onship between

me and

space through the lens of rela vity. Where space and me are inherently bound together like threads in a blanket. No single thread can bend without affec ng another. This fabric blankets the universe like a bed sheet cover the body, bending and wrapping un l it engulfs all forms of ma er. In fact, ma er distorts me and space similarly to the way our body distorts the bed sheet. These distor ons are what we define as space and me. The absence of absence shapes space that is understood through a sequen-

Understanding me and space in terms of numbers, calcula ons and concept is not important to most non-physicists or mathema cians. The ability to map me and space as it moves through the cosmos is best described through a series of complex calcula ons.

Proving that mass and energy are interchangeable, all the ma er we touch, see and feel could have come from something we can’t physically connect with. While current culture view this breakthrough as scien fically and historically significant it’s pop cultural statues has long dissipated. Leaving behind a complex, but comprehensive understanding of me and space. 5


DATA

In collusion with human sensory, deduc ve reasoning creates the illusion of reality or the ability to perceive a sense of reality. But actually, this reality is a single thread in the blanket. Revealing a snapshot of our current ability to perceive the concept of infinite me and space. Culture is founded on its ability to perceive. At any given me a social structure has a certain body of knowledge and is limited to its ability to comprehend It. So percep on becomes a driving force in how we see and move around me and space.

How does it evolve from one state to another? Historians are given this task of mapping human percep on over long periods of me. Wri en records expose cultural percep on as something that is directly dependent on technological advancement. the shi from hunter gatherer to

PERCEPTION

an agrarian society drama cally changed culture almost instantly. A constant supply of food created two major changes related to me and space. First, It freed up me allowing a few to do the work of many. During these early stages of agrarian society the idea of specializa on was introduced. Allo ng me for individuals to pursue their interest and desires, resul ng in people becoming highly skilled in par cular fields. Secondly, it brought on the demand for a standardized system for recoding me based on the cycle of seasons. Crops

The no on of me, space and percep on leads to one crucial aspect within social structures, expectaons. Se ng the bar in terms of what is culturally acceptable. In the a ermath of full on agricultural produc on people not only relied on a foreign source of food but they expected it. This concept of “expec ng” flows with cultures and adapts to the interjec on of evolved percep ons. Historically, percep on and expecta on revolved around the freeing of me due to agriculture. Current expecta ons related to me and space have exceeded

that of the agrarian. A new digital era has broken all the rules when it comes to percep on of space and me. Space can be physical, digital or a combina on of both while me is a completely abstract idea that fluctuates depending on which digital device you are or not using. Current understanding of me and space closely resembling Einstein’s theory of rela vity or me-space fabric. It has the ability to speed up or slow down me, bend and warp space . With the expecta on that the individual shapes a specific me and space that fits a need or desire.

An accurate mapping of the rela onship between me/space, percep on/expecta on can be understood through the comparison of three important cultural life styles. First, prior to a uniform system of measuring me the “event” situated space in a dominate fashion. Secondly, A er a unified system was constructed me became an “abstract” idea separa ng me from space. Society began living on a linear path of me and interjected themselves into space based on it. Thirdly, Space and me lose any connec on with the physical world. They “both

Time, Space & the Event Prior to a uniform standardiza on of me, space and me were bound together in a system of events. Blocks of events were markers in me and space, situa ng daily lives. Because the clock had not yet been invented a system for keeping track of me relied on a physical event or a process of events. This process needed to reflect spa al change over me or the ability to compare current orienta on with prior orienta on. Celes al change met all the prerequisites, it is consistent, predictable and experienced daily, monthly, and annually. It was a way for large por ons of a popula on to sync with each other. Sleeping, ea ng and socializing could be marked in me based on a celes al event. Sunrise marked the beginning of the day while sunset let popula ons know the day had ended. Even more long term shi s in culture followed the celes al rules. Change in seasons could be understood in terms of solar orienta on with respect to the earth. Thought not relevant today because of the calendar, previous socie es relied on this for survival. Nomadic cultures relied on temporality for survival, mapping celes al change over me allowed preemp ve movement from one loca on to the next.

Beyond the direct connec on culture had with celes al bodies we see an apparent side eect with the percep on of space. It was inherently bound to celes al change because life was organized by it. Culture associated the physical act of the sun’s orienta on to a daily ac vity or block of me. Hun ng, socializing, sleeping, ea ng etc. each owned a block of me and space. This ritualis c mindset dominated enre cultures and gave birth to the concept of spa al typologies. It assigned a specific ac v14

ity within culture to be played out in a specific block of me and space. For example, churches, bedrooms, dining rooms etc. were designed to act in a par cular way that coincided with a ritual, church for worship, bedroom for sleeping and dining room for ea ng. During this early period in human history, me and space were not perceived as abstract ideas detached from all things physical. Quite the opposite, it was culturally connected to a specific celes al marker in me and produced a specific space. 15

The event as a marker of space and me has one major flaw, it doesn’t deal with increased complexity. What happens when cultural need exceeds that of a singular me and space? The ex nc on of a singular existence brought about change in the percep on of me. An argument can be made that the clock was the first step in this evolu onary process. The first a empt by man to abstract me in order to deal with increased complexity. “The inven on of the mechanical clock and it’s diffusion to virtually all members of the popula on (a phenomenon which dates at it’ earliest from the late eighteenth

20

century) were of key significance in the separa on of me and space. The clock expressed a uniform dimension of “empty” me, quan fied in such a way as to permit the precise designa on of ‘zones’ of the day. Time was s ll connected with space (and place) un l the uniformity of me measurement by the mechanical clock was matched by uniformity in the social organiza on of me “( Giddens 17-18). The clock was a necessary shi for me; it had to compete with technological advancement. This era, not to be confused with “ me” was the renaissance equivalent to mobility freeing space and

me. Cars, planes and trains divided me, shortening the me it took to travel from one loca on to the next. Movement from one cultural district to the next in a rela vely short period of me blurred the boundaries between them. “In condi ons of modernity, place becomes increasingly phantasmagoric: that is to say, locales are thoroughly penetrated by and shaped in terms of social influences quite distant from them” (Giddens 19). Modernity created the beginning stages of globaliza on

It condensed me and space to the point of making the “local” obsolete. Along with technological advancement this promoted an expedien al blending of cultures, diversifying everyday life The new construct of me and space understood itself as something detached from anything physical. It had nothing to rely on except its numerical sequence that could be understood in an abstract way. In a sense people lived on a me line that offered up a sense of direc on without any physical quali es. Quali es only appeared when individuals moved perpendicular to the me line to

+

take part in an ac vity. But they always returned to a sequence of me once the ac vity was completed. This linear lifestyle resonated within most cultural circles because it aligned itself with cultures new expecta on of me and space. They became abstract concepts, allowing enough flexibility to permit temporary diversions. As coined by Giddens, “empty me” or universal me was a culturally accepted concept. It influenced the way culture saw itself in rela on space. The way space was constructed shi ed from something specific to something generic, becoming a less

=

prescribed way of living. Space no longer dictated the way people lived within a built environment. In other words the generic volume of architecture acted as a vessel to house a desired ac vity. Program such as the living room, bed room and dining room could all be one in the same, wai ng for the occupant’s ac vi es to define its purpose. This architectural interpreta on of space and me a empted to convert an abstract cultural belief of mul plicity into physical form. Trying to live up to the expecta on that “empty” me interjected into culture.

The generic volume is best illustrated through the work of early modern architects like Ludwig Mies Van Der Rohe and Le Corbusier. The masters of the modernist movement reduced space to its simplest and most abstract form. Stripping away everything that dictated how a culture interacted with space. It abandoned the characteris cs of the local or specific culture. And was a fusion of various cultures that were directly and indirectly connected. The “generic� solu on addressed the inherent proper es of each culture simultaneously by being vague and undefined. This open ended treatment of space acted as a blank canvas. Le ng individuals define how and when space should be used making it universally relevant within any cultural.

Cyber space has once again brought into question the relevance of time and space within culture. Unlike traditional modes of thinking, time and space have both become abstract concepts. Current thinking suggests that they are both infinite and minuscule, structured around and increasingly complex system of integrated connections. Creating a system of ordered complexity rendering space fluid like in nature. “A consistent pattern of arrangement of the elements of a system in relation to each other that is infinitely variable and that accrues from or dissolves to the disordered phase of those elements� (Kaup). The historic notion of linear movement through time has been distorted by the realization of our ability to manipulate it. Frequency and rate, at which we communicate, travel and interact with our environment and each other can be accelerated or decelerated by changing the medium from which we are doing it. The guiltiest suspect in creating these fluid perceptions is digital technology, adding a new layer of complexity within culture that further pushing the globalized agenda. This completely frees time and space to the point of a liquid existence. This gives individuals the ability to freely navigate the world through electronic devices with little to no restrictions. This has led to an entire cognitive shift in cultural expectations of time and space. We no longer expect to deviate from a specific time (which was the case in previous generations) but expect to manipulate its very existence.

When specific space is created exterior facade reflects changes both in content [pods] and posi on reala ve to adjacent facade. This change reflects the occupants desires, needs and interests onto the site changing it’s meaning depending on a undetermind set of circumastances. [see pages 60-61]

This allows for combina ons of living components to be arranged in logical and ill-logical varia ons allowing the occupants to focus and blur aspects of living upon request. Addi onaly, interior volume, func on and quality of space are highly tunable based on user descre on. Pods are the key pieces in abstrac ng space in a culturaly significant way. [see pages 54-59]

Easy access to outdoor ac vates ranging from sailing to Scenic walks with views of mount Rainier promo ng an ac ve healthy lifestyle. Local building typologies and context makes for a good loca on with a mix of residen al, shopping, restaurants and parks. Following Sea le’s proposed ideas for the new development of South lake Union New construcon should be no more than 8 stories and should provide the city with green space. This proposal has resulted in Low surrounding building with a range of two to five stories allowing for maximum solar exposure and open skies.
