Studio: 101 Phase I Prof: Kyle Steinfeld Description: The assignment was to produce three different analytical instruments leading way to the architectural project in phase II: A Generative Drawing; A Mechanical Device (able to produce inscriptions out of certain field conditions) and a Movie (analysing a spatial experience). Phase I was done in groups of three.

Studio: 101 Phase I Description: Skalman Microclimate Inscription Device was placed on the different project sites, a series of disused battery emplacements on the Marine Headlands, just north of San Francisco. By comparing the readings of the different sites Skalman reveals microclimate conditions on site, based on sun and wind intensity.

UC Berkeley 2010-2011
Perspective [PHASE 1]: In Flux Studio: 101 Phase I Description: The recording of a 2 minute long film analysing a spatial sequence based on anamorphic projection, in three battery emplacements in the Marin Headlands. The film laid the ground for the architectural investigation in phase II.

Project: 101 Phase II Description: This project investigates memories as physical objects, through the proposal of a necropolis for dead film formats. By turning the traditional film archive inside out and exposing the artifacts of films in a garden landscape setting, a new kind of archival experience is created. The new Pacific Film Archive is a series of graveyards for dead formats, spreading across the Marin Headlands.

Project: 101 Phase II Description: This project investigates memories as physical objects, through the proposal of a necropolis for dead film formats. By turning the traditional film archive inside out and exposing the artifacts of films in a garden landscape setting, a new kind of archival experience is created. The new Pacific Film Archive is a series of graveyards for dead formats, spreading across the Marin Headlands. Using the spatial patterns of the picturesque English landscape garden, the film tombstones are placed in the landscape as follies, creating a continuous sequence of spaces, blurring the border between outdoor and indoor spaces.

Project: 101 Phase II Description: The Urban Garden. . Here the tombstones are placed more denseley, forming built clusters. This clustering is based on data from the actual donation, such as the date of donation, the quantity and possible restricitions in access to the films. The movement through this kind of garden could either be along the given walkway or a more improvised exploration.

The project proposes indoor spaces, for screening of the films and for admin functions. The principles of the english landscape garden are applied to the interior spaces as well, forming a procession of vista points throughout the building, with tombstones framed by windows and with visual connection to the outdoor.

Project: 101 Phase II Format: Vector drawing printed on mylar, original size 36”x36” Description: The graveyards expands as new donations arrive. This process is tended by mobile, wind powered machines, packing the film in 1000 year proof tombstones and placing them in the landscape according to a given system of rules for garden landscaping. As the machines are wind powered, the shape of the tombstone will vary with the wind speed at the time of production.
