An Update

I will be spending the next few weeks mainly focusing on the Dissertation so I thought it a useful point to summarise my thoughts thus far. Perhaps as a response to the underlying ‘shift’ the city centre is undergoing with the new St. David’s II development: A remote monitoring station is set up. A series of temporary structures listen to and record the rhythm and fluctuations of the city. The existing physical fabric is surveyed and dissected. Patterns are analysed, digital feeds aggregated. Emotions recorded, history understood. After a time, the initial accumulation is complete. The programmatic response is released, the architectural intervention begins. The monitoring continues: temporal relevancy is mantained, new events learned: major city events are anticipated. The mechanism responds to market trend. New events are aggregated, unexpected possibilities are introduced according to broader supply and demand. As the shift intensifies and the economic condition substantiates, the programme in turn responds.
