Another
intriguing week indeed…To me the highlight was still watching the inspiring
movie, Robots of Brixton by Factory Fifteen. The following still images from
the movie resonated with me as I felt they encapsulated the Architectural
context of this specific future context. The amazingly vivid style of their
future Brixton setting made me wonder how I would be able to create a believable
future for my scenario.
Invention research:
After
the lecture it spurred me to have a look at some technologies that are nearly
in use or are soon to be in the near future. I came across a few interesting
developments from Gizmag (2003-2012) such as;
·
Disney patents
reality cakes – advertising to be beamed onto birthday cakes.
·
Modular solar panel
homes which can exist alone or in a modular tower.
·
Part garden, part
machine – a landscape type sculpture that moves.
There
were so many interesting new products and ideas on the horizon and I will
endeavour to keep up-to-date with current developments throughout the semester.
Will any of these ideas be able to be implemented into my future storey/
scenario? Perhaps I could in turn, develop my own new invention?
Theme selection:
With
regard to my choice for theme group I am hoping to get into the Woodford/
Regional group or the Paddington/ Suburban group.
