FROM SPACESUIT TO ARTIFICIAL WOMB The Soft and Hard Construction of Body
Spring 2019 Graduate Studio The Cooper Union Professor: Diana Agrest Topic: Body Individual Work
There are two ways in human history to understand and construct the body - hard and soft. The hard - the armor to protect mans body in conquering the world. The soft - women underwear catering to male aesthetic standards towards female body. The former, regard body as different functional parts that can be assembled, the latter see body as a whole that need personal measurements to fit.It echos two series of the NASA spacesuit - hard suits and soft suits. The spacesuit used to belong to man’s world - the space competition, the conquer and colonization of outer space. Ironically, the under layer of latex bladder layer filled with oxygen which is crucial for the whole function, is developed and produced by a company that focuses on flexible latex women girdle. The tight-fit, intimate layer (soft construction) and the mechanical, rational life support system (hard construction) combined together in spacesuits.
There is a body within a protective artificial body. The astronauts within spacesuit is similar to fetus within the womb in female body. What if the space between layers of spacesuit is filled with fluid instead of oxygen? The artificial womb is for those who cannot have babies. The desire towards ability of pregnancy and producing offsprings, is equal. The responsibility and pressure come after it is also equal. Pregnancy should be an equal choice. The womb can be a prosthesis for all men and women. The prothesis, inserted into the artery and vein of the wearer, transfers nutrition and oxygen from the blood of the wearer to the fetus and carry the waste out by a complicate system. It can also achieve real time communication of emotions between the baby and the adult through sensors on the fetus’ skin. In the near future it may also be used to have babies in outer space.
Hard Suits
The hard suits date back to the AngloSaxon Armors, which represents the concept of dividing the body into several parts, sizing and assembly, rational and scientific spirit of the life support system.
Soft Suits
The soft latex suits made by female workers in the LIC girdle company represents the soft understanding of body - adaptated, flexible, intimate and customized.
Part 1. Cyborg The spacesuit is a skin-like capsule composed of several layers. Each layer is a functional system in the closed energy exchange process inside the suit. The interface is at the same time the infrastructure. The natural human body inside this artificial body can be regarded as an entity - the cyborg. Here the human organ and the machine connected together.

The latex, which can keep reflexibility while inflated, become the major material of spacesuit, which leads to the important role of ILC Dover Company in producing NASA Spacesuit. The female workers who were famaliar with sewing the latex girdle and women underwear began to sewing spacesuit with the same material and techniques. The soft, customized, handmade spacesuits touch on the mastery of body, is complementary to another story of the hard suit - the engineered hardness, the cybernetics, the armor.
Part 2. Womb The artificial womb is for those who cannot have babies. The desire towards ability of pregnancy and producing offsprings, is equal. The responsibility and pressure come after it is also equal. Pregnancy should be an equal choice. The womb can be a prosthesis for all men and women. The prothesis, inserted into the artery and vein of the wearer, transfers nutrition and oxygen from the blood of the wearer to the fetus and carry the waste out by a complicate system. It can also achieve real time communication of emotions between the baby and the adult through sensors on the fetus’ skin. In the near future it may also be used to have babies in outer space.

MICROCLIMATES
A fragile constitution of Indoor Micro-ecologies 2020-2021 Venice Biennale 2021, Co-habitat Research assistant & Core team member Team head: Lydia Kallipoliti Team member: Doosung Shin, Qicheng Wu Individually Reworked
Website
With MICROCLIMATES, I aim to situate “living together” as a fragile constitution of microecologies; as a fragmented assembly of confined interiorities with varied environmental conditions; as an intersection of the technical and psychospatial dimension
Living 90% of our lives indoors has proliferated as a modality of living and working in New York City since the early 1980s. With the allusion of comfort, the climatically controlled interior reflects the hubris of late-modern capitalism in the heightened combination of entertainment and ecology within the place of work and the domestic interior. Designing, monitoring and managing indoor climates is not only a key engineering project, but also revives a postwar utopian project, to temper and fabricate the environment as a site of architectural production. The voluntary containment of bodies and psyches inside, exhibits new forms of urbanization and collectives enabled from the economic and societal structures of uninhibited energy expenditure.

With MICROCLIMATES we monitor, analyze and speculate on indoor micro-ecologies that reproduce fully controlled sections of the natural world. With our survey we aim to critique as to where we are placed within broader histories of environmentalism, urbanization and politics, as well as how to illustrate how civic agency may enable new forms of economic and political relations. Further, we aim to construct a new map of the city, as a collection of dispersed interiorities and a psychogeography of an emerging order in the age of pandemics, climate change and extinction.
The psychrometric interior Our indoor environments today are politically charged spaces that reflect social ideals, and culturallyspecific standards of taste and judgment. Confined within artificial enclosures, environmental control has enforced cultural and biased standards of life by recalling the power of data and cultural capital; even though in most cases these standards institutionalize absurd criteria that homogenize ideas of comfort and well-being for the entirety of the human race. The establishment of thermal equilibriums in interior spaces since the 1950s, sequestered comfort zones held within narrow ranges, reflects an understanding of the body as a tool within a constant atmospheric medium in order to control and predict its behavior and growth. It is precisely this mechanical vision of biology that gives life a specifically modern character. If organisms, either people or plants, are examined explicitly as mechanical structures serving a physical equilibrium, one cannot account for the complexity, or for the beauty of life.
Indoor Jungles Indoor gardens have proliferated in atriums of corporate office environments in New York City since the early 1980s. The climatically controlled interior – with flourishing fauna and flora- reflects the hubris of late-modern capitalism in the heightened combination of entertainment and ecology within a place of work: one that will augment productivity of workers with the use of plants. The Ford Foundation building, the Public Safety Answering Center II (PSAC II) in the Bronx, the David Rubenstein Atrium at Lincoln Center, the Winter Garden at Brookfield Place, the IBM Plaza and other indoor jungles, are not only key sites of engineering and environmental production, but also revive what was previously considered a utopian project in the postwar period, to temper and fabricate the environment as a site of architectural production. Indoor gardens evidence that in many ways, we live inside a simulation; we live inside the virtual environment of a naturalized bucolic landscape; a manufactured piece of wilderness; one that we mentally long for but are physically detached from.
The Disorientation of Confinement In imagining the end of the pandemic, we question: What will happen when we can move freely in space? Will the city be the one we left behind? Will our memories -the heap of fragments of the spaces we occupied with intensity- mirror that which we will encounter? This anxiety of reunification of the body with tangible space marks a year of confinement: a state of connected immobility, consistently zooming in and out of our physical coordinates. The 2020 delirium of domestic enclosure does not only mark the impossibility of returning to normality, but also a fundamental sense of disorientation and a rupture in the collective experience of cities and the outside. The pandemic state of blur is not only linked to the passage of time and the erosion of biorhythmic boundaries. It is also related to the way our spatial mode of existence has been fundamentally altered: from cartesian space positioning locales in a finite x, y, z system, to a spherical stereographic system referencing the self, relative to other bodies in space. Determinate points of reference have faded in our cognition, while a new order of moving bodies has emerged in an interrelational metric game of proximity and field interactions. In the space we inhabit, there are many origin points, as the only point of orientation is the self and the extended nucleus of bodies chosen to group themselves as one. In this sense, epidemic space renders correlationism, or the need for embeddedness in the world and an ecosystem, obsolete. Pervasive disorientation and multisensorial ubiquity delineate the reconstruction of new geographies, mappings and formal arrangements once freedom of movement is granted.

SENTIENT CLOUDS
Apparatuses for the Atmosphere Summer 2019 Thesis Studio The Cooper Union Professor: Micheal Young, Anna Bokov Advisor: Farzin Lotfi-Jam Individual Work
The Spectrum Space The environment we are living in is full of vibrations and signals produced by artifacts and natural phenomenon. Effectively, the atmosphere above us has become a space that can be occupied like real estate. As Mark Wigley puts it, “space itself is defined and redefined by countless hidden vibrations. We tune into space rather than simply occupy them, and usually tune in to many different overlapping spaces at the same time.” The threshold between inside and outside is now defined by switches of frequency on the antenna. So there comes a question in architectural field - How do we perceive and engage with these intangible, invisible spaces of radiation? Architecture should not simply accommodate signals produced by technological objects, but reveal and construct new systems to interpret and interfere with the signals in a way that makes the environment sensible and comprehensible. Several scholars have considered the significance of signals. Buckminster Fuller constructed the relationship between inhabita
tion and the planetary space of radio waves by regarding the latter as building material and environment. The 4D house he designed transports its occupants from a fixed position into the full vibrating bandwidth of the electromagnetic spectrum, thereby intimately connect the body and brain to the planet and universe. Negroponte proposed another engagement with the signal space by proposing a new protocol of information transfer. Envisioning a new Environment The above leads to a new understanding of nature as a wholistic environment there is no division anymore between nature, society, politics and technology. We need to develop a new understand to approach environmental problems, or to say, environmental design. This thesis theoretically propose new architectures as mediums to interfere with the environment; theses interferences operate as
technological imaginations for the atmosphere. Through environmental imagination, the project aims to build new relationships of individuals and the environment, and extend our awareness of social ecological problems from the ozone hole to solar energy and spectrum conflicts as a new public realm. The project speculates on the environmental perception of diverse radiation waves from cosmic rays and UV radiation, to water vapor signals, and 5G mobile communication networks. A system of cloud-like clusters, proposed as collective sentient apparatuses, flock at certain altitudes of different kinds of radiation to capture specific frequencies of signals. These four types of clusters (each is summarized on the reverse of this sheet) - cosmic cluster, UV cluster, water vapor cluster and 5G cluster, give discrete case studies of the larger projective atmosphere. Each cluster is composed of one type of cell containing
technological components, senses, transmits, and interferes with their targeted radiation type. As a result, the clusters formulate a multidimensional communication network transmitting various signals through multi-scale spectacles as unnatural phenomena. They also transform the environment by creating feedback loops to deal with space debris, ease uv radiation, solve spectrum conflicts of 5G and weather broadcast, or forming neutral network in public parks. A zone of influence on the ground expands from Manhattan to the globe as the altitude of distribution rises from city level to the clouds and up to space stations and satellites. Through investigating the expanded territory of architecture into the field of atmosphere and radiation filled with particles, electrons and waves, the thesis creates a new system of interpreting and envisioning the environment.

Elevation of the antenna on the top of the Empire State Building, which represents that the traditional threshold between interior and exterior now became the switch among different channels. 2. Cheography Chart to connect the radio requency allocation to sensory space of heat, light, humidity, touch, frequency and sound. Right: The four clusters distributed in the Section of the Atmosphere, from top down are: cosmic cluster, UV cluster, water vapor cluster and 5G cluster.
01/ Cosmic Cluster Spectrum: Cosmic Rays (frequency >1 eHz) Distribution Altitude: 800-2000 km Zone: global
Space debris growing in volume are causing traffic problems in satellite orbits. The cosmic cluster orbiting around earth, lighting up the sky to indicate the radiation level of cosmic rays by obliterating targeted space debris using reflected gamma rays. The light is produced by this obliteration, its level proportionate to the radiation level. Each unit of the cluster is composed of a solar sail structure reflecting and storing solar energy, and a gyroscope structure containing the gamma ray accelerator chamber. The sensor inside a small box continuously captures the cosmic rays, then the camera on the solar panel detects space debris in the field with denser and stronger radiation. The captured ray is then reflected by a silicon prism and shoots from the accelerator to the targeted space debris.

02/ UV Cluster Spectrum: UV Radiation (frequency 1-10 pHz) Distribution Altitude: 150-200 km Zone: North America + Mexico
Atmospheric pollutants depletes stratospheric ozone, which in turn increases human exposure to ultraviolet radiation, causing skin cancer and cataracts. UV cluster indicate the changing index of UV radiations related to the ozone depletion by creating optical spectacles in the sky. The unit is a ultraviolet irradiation and hydrogen peroxide reaction chamber, filtering H2o2 into the system and use a lens to collect uv light to dissociate hydroxyl peroxide radicals through chain reactions and oxidize contaminates in the atmosphere. In the UV dense area, this process generates more water vapor to form new rain clouds in the atmosphere to block extra radiation. At the same time, solar panels collect energy stored in a battery which can be recycled into the ground storage center.

03/ Water Vapor Cluster Spectrum: Water Vapor (frequency – 23.8 GHz) Distribution Altitude: 40km Zone: East Coast
The new 5G mobile communications network interferes with weather forecast satellites as the 5G signal have similar frequency with water vapor. In order to compensate for that problem, the water vapor cluster alters how the signals are read by the satellites. The cluster works as a transmitter, process received signals from both 5G and water vapor into a two-sections-message and the weather satellites only have access to the water vapor section. The balloon-like cluster is also indicator for the environmental data to inform citizens by emitting color powders into the clouds.
04/ 5G Cluster Spectrum: Mobile Communication Network (frequency 24–86 GHz) Distribution Altitude: <10km Zone: Manhattan
The existing telecommunication network of different carriers has become a capitalized network from which personal data is mined for commercial use. For example, search results are filtered, personal calls and emails are analyzed. Instead of this biased network, the 5G cluster aims to form a neutral network environment in city parks. Each unit’s internet blocker device filters commercial carries networks, communicates to phones through 5G sensors. People entering this environment - an internet neutral zone, have access to an independent network without data mining.

CITIZENS OF DERIVE Reimaging Infrastructure as Urban Public Space Spring 2018 Thesis Studio China Central Academy of Fine Arts Advisor: Yufang Zhou, Zigeng Wang Team Work with Yue Cao
Phase 1. Infrastructure Keller Easterling wrotes, “Architecture is the stone that occasionally appears in water, but the water is the world.” Architecture is no longer all about a solipsistic monad but a point always within an interconnected constellation and a network of interrelations – be that a climate, an infrastructure, the everyday, or a system of power relations. However, urban design and architectural design are becoming instrumental projection of capital power in material and space, gradually losing its revolutionary power. Architecture should be more critical towards the role it plays in the network of infrastructure. The design started from analysis of overlapping infrastructure systems on site.
Phase 2. Virus There is no way out of this network for individual except being a bad code or virus. The architecture, of not being subjective to capitalist ends, should also adopt the strategy of hackers. Through dysfunctioning and irrationalize the network, new possibilities of city life will emerge. Gradually new network will be build upon the exiting one when the hackers connect together. Just as the nomadic infrastructure by Archigram and the sockets by Super Studio and Archizoom, the viruses propose a new network of infrastructure that is based on surplus energy, and aim to support a more equally balanced interactive energy distribution system for the communities who strive for their rights.
Models of the Infrastructure systems - water, eletricity, road, rail, heat, and the virus(yellow) Copper, Iron, metal wire, Acrylic
Phase 3. Nodes The nodes of infrastructure – the power station, the train station, the wifi hotspot…can also be regarded as architectural objects. Based on the selected nodes of infrastructure systems, four installation spaces are designed. Situationists use the psychological map to resist the modern city planning controlled by western rationalism, and furthermore build new network on the top of the existing one, and build connected sectors expanding throughout the globe, which were shown as colorful collage on the map of existing cities. The weapon situationists used to resist the network of rational, is collective unconscious and ludic culture of play. The
networks of New Babylon is not built for function, but rather dysfunction. New Babyloniors drift in a labyrinthine landscape without signposts, like the drifter described by Benjamin, and they create artworks for their own instead of forced labor for living. Here the efficiency and order of transportation and labor market system celebrated in modern city is dysfunctionalized. The sectors in the network also works irrationally. Inside the sector, Color, light, texture, temperature, and air quality could all be adapted to the mood of the moment. The architecture becomes an immersed everchanging environment, which was made possible by invisible technology within the
network, namely the wires, sensors, radio and light. The architecture become a piece of infrastructure of technology and network, not for functioning within the controlled system of city, but for fun, poetic and creative life. It opened new possibility for network architecture that frustrate all attempt for capitalist ends. In this project, four node designs give discrete case studies of the larger scenario. Each installation focuses on one detail in modern urban life experience constarined by the machine of captalism. Through new mechanisms as poetic machines, those installation spaces lead to new scenarios of collective living in the cities.
The Virus unit is a multi-surface structure composed of CPU core, storage, tube collector (for sound collection and sensor), contact collector (for electricity), cable structure and antenna(for electricity). The unit move along the infrastructure and “steal” energy surplus for a more interactive redistribution system. The virus start to grow along the infrastructure facilities, attracted by the nodes, and begin to accumulate and form an autonomous community based on self sufficient energy.

The sounds, smells, images inside the neighborhood is collected by the center tubes which are connected with subterranean water and electricity supply system. The wireless receiver mounted on the surface as well as the signal tower in the center keep receiving signals within radiation distances.
The Organ of Tide reflects on the division of time - labor time and free time. The ash silo relics are transformed into a musical space to mark time by tide. Air was pressed into sound tubes by tides, and sunlight is also filtered through those tubes, creating a public ritual space for neighbors to restore themselves from daily routine.

Visualizing the Invisible Wall of Social Media Spring 2015 Representation Studio China Central Academy of Fine Arts Advisor: Han Li Team Work with Yue Cao, Sen Luo, Xinming Luo, Ziheng Li (individually Reworked) Individually Reworked
We celebrate the diversity in the controlled generalized grid of infrastructure, we celebrate the freedom of expression in the strictly filtered system, we celebrate the liberation of body while we are still prisoners of mind. The walls are ALWAYS there.
the Invisible Wall of Social Media
Palace of Power
“Free Space”
There was a city surrounded by walls. Only noble people are allowed to enter the wall.the hierachy of walls is determined by political status. In the center of the walls, The emperior is the prisoner of himself. Now the kingdom is gone, so is the emperior. The city was opened to the public as a relic of the history of autocracy. Free citizens come to visit there to learn the despotic past which they have already forgotten, since they are freed for too long. Visitors have to pass the safety gate to enter the city,though which process their id of the system is registered.
Once entered, they would find themselves in the people’s free square. Bullets of comments and mood dairies from social media is float above the square. The square is divided into several parts, people of different interest groups gathering in different squares. Diversified as it seems, The grid infrastructure network system reflect the equality and homogeneity. Immersed in the seemingly free ecstasy of communication, they hardly think about the void outside the wall which they know nothing about, and the mechanism inside the wall to filter the information.
Machine in the Wall If we look from the top of the city and cut it horizontally, we can see the real structure inside the walls and buildings. The interface visitors perceived are all fake. Inside the thin walls in the periphery there are machines and cables filtering informations and make illusionary projections. The Grand Palace is the central pivot of the whole system, where the terminal of each mechanism is placed. The juxtaposition of those terminals with the dragon throne represents that they are the new power system today.The walls, partitions and columns are abstracted as symbolic for the control system of information.

The landscape of this natural island is divided by invisible boundaries of property and psychological barriers. While one wandering in the forest by the sea, the dangers are that he could be expelled by the house holders nearby, for the forest is private asset. Is there a possibility, in such natural environment, that the distinction between public and private is as soft as the slopeness of the land? So that the travelers can follow the path to the public area and avoid intrusions into private land. Also, there are saturation of public spaces, which is defined by the natural elements such as light, slope and visibility. The bottomup intervention of public-private threshold in this community aims to create a new relationship between public landscape and private landscape. The form of shelters were generated from solar envelope, as a humble and minimized intervention into the site. This project proposes an alternative to the enlargement of the community, explores the relationship between private land and common landscape in a natural rural environment - on Nessoden island in Norway - and questions the standard notions of privacy and sharing, segretion and transparency, and fresh methods of data-based design related to environmental analysis and consideration of multiple human senses.

The base surfaces are the results of last planar evaluation, which shows the optimal boundaries of public spaces. The solar envelopes are created based on the surrounding buildings existing as obstacle objects.
The Solar Collection Envelope presents the lowest possible locus of windows and passive solar collectors, on the elevation of the building, such that they will be exposed to the sun during a given period of winter, but will be shaded in summer.
The Solar Rights Envelope presents the maximum heights of buildings that do not violate the solar rights of any of the existing buildings during a given period of the year.
The volume included between both envelopes. This volume contains all the buildings heights that allow solar access to each surrounding building, and at the same time are not shaded by the neighboring buildings.

Mapping of spatial Hierachy of Beijing The book Folding Beijing constructs a world in which different social classes live separately in three different spaces. Nevertheless,in reality,people from different stratums share common time and space.The apposition and isolation of different classes- residential space,production and consumption space as well as cultural space of different classes intersperse and interlace together on a real city map. I marked the politic center and villa
area,shoppingmalls and office buildings ,shanty towns and indemnificatory housing area,and greening land in Beijing.The grid system represents the solidified social stratification.In a typology way,The residential,business and cultural spaces of different classes are implied in different patterns,from which distinctions of living scale can be seen.Through the overlapping of three grids the abstract prospect of Beijing class society can be perceived.

Frame - As a comparison to the commercial residential buildings which are based mainly on the soviet slabs and Corbusier’s towers, the Frame building aims to create a linking system. The former seems like Objects as they are isolated from each other and have no positive effect for the block and city as a whole, while the latter is more like a piece of city texture, which frame the city through the limitation of solid and void. Permeability - Traditional living models of Beijing are introverted courtyards for small families. The system for a mixed collective should have multilayered permeability.
