For Tuesday, 18 February Class

For Tuesday please read the Inverted World pdf I will send via email and review the links below. I would like to start talking about the nature of space and how we will engage it in this class. Be prepared to start that conversation.

Inverted World is about a city that is being transported on tracks chasing an phenomena called the "optimum." Please read the text and take notes.

Two questions:
What does this have to do with space?
Why am I having you read this?

  1. space can be translated through many different representations and mediums. These instances are dealing with space on various denotative and connotative levels. While ID moves through literal and subjective space, Rachel Whiteread creates representations by removing or constructing through various interpretations dealing with emotional and physical space. Both of these projects deal with the subject of space and how it is received and translated, but approach them through different methods.


    These articles are representative of the various approaches that can be taken with this concept/class. They inspire new ideas and methods without adding constraint to the bounds of the class.
