transition|interval stab01

from the gate the plane fuselage, the transitions observed are three fold: one is of volume, another of organization, and lastly of speed. at the gate people are occupying a large space, scattered in various positions, and relative to the ground they are nearly motionless. upon takeoff in the plane, people are occupying a vastly smaller volume of space, sitting in tightly supervised columns and rows, and flying at high speeds.

my first attempt was to simulate the elements (people) moving from a chaotic, unorganized state to one that has some observable degree of order.

this really didn't lend to any form finding technique, so it was abandoned as a scheme.

had it not been so late, i would like to have developed a scheme to 'randomize' the bottom elements (gate condition) to juxtapose the order seen at the top (plane/takeoff condition).

the first stab doesn't seem to represent these idea very well, though hints of speed and volume are observed. after creating this, i wonder if generating a surface condition is more beneficial than what seems to be an object.




my left leg for an undo button, for the love of god.
