doubleNegativesArchitecture 双重否定建筑

An infant would stretch its arms to measure the distance between themselves and their target object. We would sharpen our auditory perceptions to capture the movement of objects in the dark. These are some of the examples that demonstrate various ways in which we perceive spatial extensity, using senses other than our vision. We could say that mankind developed science and art as a means of determining his/her relation to the surrounding vast spaces.

It is without a doubt that within the context modern cityscapes, architectural spaces in have had an immense impact on our sensory perception. dNA regards architectures themselves as a device for calculating and measuring special variations, while creating works that propose the method for transcribing the special spectrum.

The traditional rules of perspective and the common methods to transcribe architecture as such are relevant for a set of fixed and constant space. However, once we de-root the external view, the way in which we measure the space transforms into a dynamic process. In Corpora, the nodal points of the architectural contours are incorporated as view points, instead, to measure the space, and the locus for spatial transcription is in constant shift. Furthermore, meteorological data and other intervening variables are used as input data, to determine the structure at a certain stage of its transformation. If such an architecture that could autonomously reproduce and transform its structure were to be made possible, in place of those that limit and control space, then the way in which cities exist would be based on an understanding that is far different from what we know now.

双重否定建筑(简称dNA)

就如同婴儿张开双臂来测量自己与目标对象之间的距离,或是在黑暗中通过磨练听力来捕捉物体的运动,我们运用视觉以外的许多方法来把握空间。可以说,科学和艺术的诞生是人类围绕着如何捕捉和记述广阔自然以及自身周围延展空间所生发的想象。

毫无疑问,在近代以来的城市环境中,建筑空间对我们的知觉有着决定性的影响。dNA认为建筑本身就是计算和测量空间的工具,并发表了提示其表记方法的作品。

源自透视法的通常所用的建筑表记方法只有在恒定不变的空间中才有意义。然而,一旦我们根除外在的视点,采用”内部观测”的想法,则我们测量空间的方式将转化为一个动态的过程。在”躯体”(Corpora)中,建筑轮廓线的节点充当了测量空间的视点,因此空间记录的中心点不断移动。由此,可将气象数据等作为即时决定的媒介变量来输入。对空间的管理不再等于控制,自成一律的不断再生变化的建筑成为可能,那么城市存在的方式将建立在一种和我们现在所知全然不同的理解之上。
