ExChange Incubator Second Semester
INSTRUCTORS: PHILIP PARKER
DUMBO,Brooklyn
The studio started with the creation of different analytical drawings of the Dumbo area, how lines were used to express change and movement. These drawings were further analyzed as surfaces and how the lines would influence the surface materiality. The materiality is also influenced by a short study of the Tulle material used in clothing, which consist of stacking and layering the thin material to form blocks that can be transformed into something else. With these factors in mind there was a short animation produced that consisted of the material surfaces with the diagram lines and how they were moved by the influence of wind at different speeds. A single moment was taken from the animation to create the incubator and create new analytical drawings. The studio creates a back and fourth exchange between the analytical tools and the productive tools. 40

Co��uter Me�ia Spring 2012
INSTRUCTOR: DAVID KRONER
Metro West Bridge-Wave Bridge
The project consisted on digitally modeling an existing bridge and further analysis its potential for animation. A 2 minute animation was produced narrating not only the potential of the bridge but the tectonic aspects of it. The exercises allowed for 3d modeling experiments but also how to represent in 2d form an animated sequence. The bridge was model and animated using Maya software.

Bookshelf
The design of the bookshelf consisted on the idea of not using any screws for its assembly and to have an easy way to transport it. The way in which it does not require any screws is that it implements a modified version of Japanese wood joint called Mortised Rabbeted Scarf joint. The joint consist of using a final key piece that locks the wood pieces together, in the case of the bookshelf the shelf and the vertical structure components are both the locking piece for each other. The vertical components and the shelf component work together to snap into place and they each hold each other together. Due to the fact that there is no screws in the furniture is can be assembled easily with no need of tools it is only a matter figuring which pieces go together like a puzzle. It can also be taken apart just as easily so it can be transported in pieces instead of a full scale bookshelf. The Vertical structure is made from two 1/2� Birch plywood milled pieces that are glued together to create the proper joint connection. The shelf components are made from two 3/8� Luana plywood also glued together. 52
