03 FACE Closed Circuit Projection Installation Syracuse University Advanced Art Video Instructor Boryana Rossa 2016 Spring
Affected by Bruce Nauman “Corridor”, Peter Campus “shadow Projection”, and Dan Graham “present continuous past(s)”. I tried to experiment with basic installation of infinite loop with camera and projection. With a number of clips from experiment, I edited the video on the purpose to show the relation between virtual images created within loop and the body in reality. The figure as an image projected onto surface or reflected on the mirror is taken as a part of the body in reality. Then, replacement and duplication occurs as a way of expanding the image of body into virtual loop.

Loop Principle Diagram
Floor Plan
This diagram shows the basic idea of creating a loop with camera and projector. First, light reflected on objector is captured by camera. (step 01) Then, the image is transmitted to projector through cable.(step 02) This image is projected on the wall, where the viewer is standing. (step 03) This is one cycle of the loop. Basically, importing the image then, exported again. Then, the images is again imported to camera (step 04). But the images that is captured by camera at step 04 is not the same anymore with the imported image of step 01. As the image at step 04 includes what has been projected on the wall. And this delays slightly and creates a frame of image, what was just present.

Virtual space within loop Rhythm by camera works By controlling the movement of the camera and the speed of the camera works, creating virtual space within infinite loop on the wall is possible. Also, viewers can create the rhythm in between each frames of loop by responsing to what is projected on the wall at that moment. The virtual projected image moves from near frame to deep frame as time goes. This live feedback is what enable the viewers to create rhythm with. two basic camerawork is exploited. Zoom and tilting. Zoom in and out changes the scale of the image and cut out the edges. Tilting rotates the images around the center point with angle, creating a pattern of images. What is creating a rhythm is rhythm of transitions of these options. As the past goes deeply into the frame, changes that occured at near past can not immediately affect the deeper frames. Those images are left on the wall, inviting viewers to react to it.
Figure 02. zoom in 200% / tilt -60’ This two experiments develops different forms of virtual space within loop. Figure 01 shows continously zoomed out image, tilted about 60’. Compared to Figure 01, 02 shows larger space , tilted to opposite angle. Figures from left to right, divides linear form of virtual space more times. creating smother movements of more frames. This is possible as the speed of the camera works changes the amount of time it takes for one cycle of loop. 01 Face
01 Jogakbo Community Center Renovation project of an abandoned building in downtown Syracuse Syracuse University Environmental and Interior Design Studio 3 Instructor Gregory Marinic 2015 Fall 420 S,Salina st, Syracuse, NY
Jogakbo is a type of Korean traditional patchwork. It brings left clothes of different size, color, and shape together and makes one heterogenous surface. The parts of the surface retain their own identities, and at the same time, they create a whole. Jogakbo is the method of bringing different matters together without jeopardizing the parts. The population of Syracuse consists of Asians, Hispanics, Caucasians, and African-Americans. There are not a single cultural center that adequately represent the multicultural aspect of the city. This project aims to provide a cultural center for all - immigrants and U.S. citizens as well as different races. This project documented and digitally modeled one abandoned building in downtown Syracuse where the immigrant population of economically lower class do not have a single cultural facility. The project preserved and renovated the exiting building for cultural institution based on the logic of jogakbo. The most significant intervention is the patterned wall structure. It not only provides various functions to the interior conditions, but also symbolizes the cultural ideal for the community. That is, different social and economic classes were encouraged to be put together and mingle without enforcing them to be a homogeneous one.

Pattern Study for Patchwork Concept One of project goal was to develope wall pattern structure in ronovated building. Patchwork symbolizes immigrants from all over the world with different cultures. The idea of Korean Patch work ‘Jogakbo’ is to bring left clothes together. The size and color, even shape can vary from one and another, but these create beautiful patchwork together.
Interior Scale Wall Pattern Geneology
Wall Pattern Model
Simple wall piece becomes a wall pattern by combining with other pieces, showing the geometry that did not exist in the parts. Then, this wall surface wraps the interior space. Unified pattern develops as a wall, a ceiling, a floor unified space. 02 Jogakbo Community Center

Location of institutions for immigrants around downtown Syracuse shows correlation between the density of foreign born population, in case of religious, and economical institutions. The number these institutions count up to 5, and 10 for each. However, there are only 2 cultural institutions, which is 7 miles away from downtown Syracuse. This shows the necessity of cultural institution. The population of Foreign Born is about 45,000 as of 2015. Asian Immigrants takes up 35% of immigrants to Syracuse, showing the most drastic growth per year.

Original Building Condition Original Building was built in the 1890s. After the 2nd and 3rd floor collapsed due to a fire, in 1920, architect Charles D. Wilsey renovated the building for the L. Vinney Company, to create one large commercial space with a storefront with copper trimming and plate glass. The storefront has been used as a commercial building in downtown Syracuse. Then, in the 2000 local construction company bought property for renovation.

Program Mass Program focused on the friendly cultural experience of children and parents. It varies from education to auditorium for concerts. Private programs are located on 2nd and 3rd floor. For adults, counseling service and parental education are the main programs. And for children, cultural education is provided as daycare or after school activity. Terrace and backyard is playground for them. 1st floor and ground floor is more public place welcoming other parts of the city. 1st floor is largely public kitchen and library where parents and children can spend time together along with neighborhood residents. Also, small concert hall brings local residents into the building and opens up opportunity to get together.
Children Parents Neighborhood Pedestrian
Circulation Sequence Atrium brings circulation inside the building and flow of pedestrians outside together. Concourse for the outer flow connects with the inner circulation at atrium. This is result of renovating concourse into Atrium with inner staircase. Concourse function as gallery for artworks and activities of children, opening up results of activities to public. Neighborhood residents can use the 1st floor of public kitchen and library, providing opportunity to build community not only within immigrants but also with local residents. Children and Parents share 2nd and 3rd floor but the time they use the space differs according to their activity of education or cultural experience.

This project aims to provide a temporary resting space for visitors and locals in the site. The site, Kew Balmy Beach, is only 6 miles away from Toronto. There are many visitors and tourists to the beach, but there is no adequate structure to signify the place. The project, using the local materials available in the site and referring the local references such as igloo, aims to provide site-specific shelter. Round form creates warm atmosphere in the middle of the beach. It is very important during the winter. The strong wind during the winter often requires a wind shelter for the visitors.

04 Handbuilding Ceramics Syracuse University Intro to handbuilding Instructor Maria Spiess 2016 Spring
Through ceramics, these projects explored clay as material to create forms and surface, and structure. Ceramics could be thought as object, at the same time, space inside, or relation to space around object. This characteristics abled me to think of it as small scale architectural process. Following the steps of ceramics brought a story to form making process -building, drying, firing, glazing, then firing again- ,as layers add on the surface of clay. I saw this process as 2 big parts of physical and chemical process. Interesting way to think about this is that under certain circumstance, chemical process of glazing, and slip decoration could affect the form of the object, reversly. Physical process of building consists of building, as overall form and structure, and surface decoration. Methods, order and scale were the two factors that differenciated the process. In this projects, reconfiguration of varioius methods were exploited to create interesting object.
