Heyo, i am thinking! that in order to do what i want to do, having a creative online footprint will probably be helpful! So I will now post a thing I did!
The main crux of my fully serious academic thesis, a comic strip showcasing the completely viable step-by-step transformation of Dublinâs barriered East Point Business Park into a new, future-proof city co-operative district, through grassroots architectural practise, following the principles of the commons and the Ecuadorian Rights of Nature, starring the rapper Childish Gambino.
(Already very emotive, the cad block website I was using had both a Donald Glover pack and a Childish Gambino pack, giving me 10 poses instead of 4. Glover famously also starred in the sitcom âCommunityâ.)
A number of weeks into the process, Johanna, my thesis advisor, advised me to consider a wider scope for my design project. I should not only design a physical building, but also the community itself. The project became from this moment a study of alternative methods of practise, the design of a process that put living things, human and otherwise, once again at the centre of what we do.
I struggled to display these thoughts within the traditional plans and sections of a standard architectural project, so wrote a comic instead. As it turns out, thereâs a lot to be said for doing things in a completely unprecedented way! Iâve discovered that just because things are almost always done a certain way doesnât mean that a different method wonât also work, potentially better.
the sheer vibrant humanity happening in the tempelhofer feld juxtaposed against what used to happen in the exact same space is just very cool i thought
