Phase 1: Algorithmic Drawing with the Problem of Foreign Input



The drawing as a frame story: imprisoned by

measuring lines /

vertical snippets of time /

a series of narrative folds (/‌), elements appear to transform as they

move into the frames. Some re-emerge, unscathed, at the end of their procedures; others are put through such agonising processes that they seem barely recognisable. The End.

Phase 1: Algorithmic Drawing with the Problem of Foreign Input Hybrid drawing, combination of digital and analog computational drawing Above: Shou Jie Eng’s writing for me


Phase 1: Algorithmic Drawing with the Problem of Foreign Input Experiments with Python (Opposite) Final Drawing for Phase 1 12 Drawings, Graphite and Ink on mylar and duralar



Phase 1: Algorithmic Drawing with the Problem of Foreign Input Final drawing as axonometric for Phase 2




Phase 2: Thick Surface Constructs with Architectural Problems Direct: Line from line The material of the drawing is expressed through a three-dimensional drawing, an isometric drawing. There is nothing in between, nothing inhibiting the expression of line. Yet, the drawing has no obvious structure; trajectory. It may very well be a fleeting moment in time, in between phase shifts. What is a construct that makes, erases, and remakes itself?



Phase 2: Thick Surface Constructs with Architectural Problems Elaborating on the isometric drawing above, the drawing is a capture of the 3D model as an exploded axon. The drawing as it appears may have infinite depth.



Phase 2: Thick Surface Constructs with Architectural Problems Interpretive: Surface from line The drawing is explored through collage. Acting as a mediatory agent, the variation of techniques, both manual and digital, offer a breadth of suggestions. Contingent on the viewer’s perception, the ambiguity of a metric system produces stability and uncertainty. What is a construct of fast and slow surface?



Phase 2: Thick Surface Constructs with Architectural Problems Interpretive: Surface from line As a continuation of the drawing, the model is an exploration of the transformation of drawing to model; the constructed line. The combination of materials and their established hierarchies suggests a construct of fast and slow processes.



Phase 2: Thick Surface Constructs with Architectural Problems Procedural: Volume from line Following an order developed using Python Script and Grasshopper the drawing explores the implied lines through space that act as scaffolding to support transforming volumes and voids of inhabitation. What is a construct of time lapse?
