Capturing Wind
Translation is an exercise in abstraction. This series of wind drawings attempts to capture the multi-layered nature of wind patterns across the Owens Valley landscape using mylar paper and audio-recordings […]

History shows that there is a consistent reaction (by some), against new technology. This subset of people often believe that the new technology represents some type of negative shift in […]
In the final presentation we had to incorporate an eidetic photo montage. I tried to include the experiences that I felt from the lake. It was full of contrasting points […]
During the fourth week of school we got to visit Owens Lake, the lake was really big, so vast and mostly empty and really flat. The things that came out […]
The next step on our design process was creating clay models, representing topography and using almost those lines that we manage to get from our drawings from the sound and […]
Creating drawings from sound and wind was the first step on our design process. The next step was to create a machine that would mimic our handmade drawings, try to […]
After observing and analyzing Owen’s Valley and learning about the current problems its facing, having the opportunity to implement a design that dealt with mitigating some of the issues was […]
Using grasshopper for the first time was an interesting journey in trying to figure out how to implement parametric design within the site we chose. Using parametric algorithms to create […]
Owens Valley is a site of political controversy that is associated with water rights and its current uses. Our visit to Owen’s Lake was a very informative experience, one that […]
Wind is a force that carries an abundant amount of power. So why can’t that force be harnessed to express the different characteristics that wind often displays daily. A wind […]
Drawing is an art form that is based upon expression and subtleties that are associated with visuals. However, when we take away the visual component we are left with our […]
Owens Lake was a eye opener. I had pass through this region several times but I had never imagined this being a lake.The scale of the lake is vast and […]
Trying to figure out how to draw the wind and sound was really challenging, at least for me. The experience changed from just listening to a station to actually feeling […]
Nearing the end of our quarter we are working to develop our final narratives based on our exploration of Owens Lake. We have utilized a variety of mediums and poetic […]
https://generativelandscapes.files.wordpress.com/2014/12/a01_step01.png ‘Grasshopper’ is a tool/plugin that multiplies, by the dozens, the possibilities of the results over manipulating a single 3D modeled object in Rhino. As a Landscape Architecture student, I […]
Exploring form and patterns through clay modeling allowed me to understand the cut and fill process that will be required for machine choreography. It also allowed me to explore with […]
One of the first assignments we had to do for class was to draw with our eyes closed the wind and noise. Although it may sound fairly easy the assignment […]
For this part of the project we had to explore different pattern on a plastalina surface. The patterns had to be related to the machines that could be available in […]
To interpret sounds from a live feed can be difficult since the nature of people is to recreate that sound. To most people when they hear a sound the think […]
Having the opportunity to visit a site helps to experience it in different aspects and how the different variables involved had defined the site as it is now. Having the […]
