SLIDE 5

Field Conditions - form

start with small elements and through repetition bring about a different sense of

the whole

to re-think organizational principles and the relationship between objects and

territory

refers to an array of objects or marks that accumulate to the point of becoming

a system

Moire patterns - figural effect produced by the superposition of two regular fields

SLIDE 6

Field Conditions - form

to defy the idea of boundary and act as windows into a potentially larger

expanse, provoking viewers to imagine beyond the frame

it emphasizes the arbitrariness of the edge, suggesting that the drawing could

extend infinitely beyond the surface it marks

Mies Van Der Rohe - Brick Villa 1923

SLIDE 7

Field Conditions - urbanism

in opposition to the Modernist’s and Deconstructivist’s rejection to the

complexities of the urban context

toward a consideration of systems and networks with permeable boundaries,

flexible internal relationships, multiple pathways and fluid hierarchies

redefine the relationships between figure and ground, finite and infinite, place

and nonplace in relation to the grid In Sanford Kwinter’s text La Città Nuova: Modernity and Continuity, he describes fields as “... a space of propagation, of effects. It contains no matter or material points, rather functions, vectors and speeds.”
