Assignment 06:

Attempting to analyze all of the sensorial aspects around me through an abstraction of my physical self as receptacle of sensorial input.

Thinking about how sensorial perception of materials is shaped by the environment they exist in. A warm wood bench in a sun ray is a pleasant experience to find ones self in while that same bench on a colder rainy day could find one feeling damp. Sensorial perception is then not only about the objects that inhabit a space, but how external forces impact how those perceptions are relayed to us.

For this portion of the analysis I attempted to use a LIDAR scan from my iPad as a way to capture space and thus annotate more clearly on it the sensorial aspects of the space I was in. Using this scan as well would allow one to revisit the sensorial pocket of space they were in previously and re-examine the conditions they found themselves in. To notice again the perception of the concrete paving stones, blotchy with moisture from that mornings rain. A streaky wood grain turning green from moss in portions. And a cold metal armrest, reflective of the mood of the day.

Take home assignment

sounds while I work

temperature sitting at the desk with baseboard heater at my feet and window in front that is cracked

a rub of the textures in my office area – types of smooth and hard

the light through the curtains in the living room

In class assignment

benches in courtyard – gaps everywhere! red where I thought would feel uncomfortable, blue how it actually felt smooth

furniture in courtyard – arrows how I thought it would rotate, red marks where it didn’t move

In-class exercise: Tactile studies of ergonomics and comfort of concrete bench in Buchanan courtyard.

At home: Tactile body experience of foot on floor materials

Touch map of feet on floor materials. Areas where floor materials were wet, had low friction materials, and grade changes required more cautious footsteps. Areas that were flat, dry with higher friction materials allowed for more carefree, comfortable footsteps.

I spent a couple of hours in Starbucks close to my home. One of the strongest senses I got as soon as I walked into the café is the smell of the coffee, which remained noticeable when I was talking to the cashier and barista. (showed in red on drawings, may not clear after scanning. ) Audio filled in the small space-people chatting(more on the front desk side, and outside seating), machine functioning, alarms. Yellow lines show the main routes I noticed during my stay in the café.

I sat on a black smooth wooden chair, with a round table that had brown wood pattern on its surface. The window next to me was framed with silver metals.

I started the exploration with an analysis of edge conditions and trip hazards, explored the transition of heat drawn away from my body by sitting on the cold cement, and tried to represent texture along the edge of a planting area.

Next I sat in the plaza and tried to imagine the world only from what I could hear. Annotating direction, rhythm, and amplitude of sound surrounding me.

 

I walked across the plaza looking for something to draw, and I noticed that through my thin shoes I could feel the difference in textures as I walked around. This map attempts to denote the rythm and feeling of my foot as I traveled across the plaza using only line. each segment of dotted line represents an individual step (although it is not to scale), with the expression of the line meant to indicate how the step felt: soft, sharp, etc.

Im calling the top drawing a texture map – the line attempts to communicate the soft and rough textures along the hands path of this moss covered tree limb.|

The bottom Drawing is about the sensorial experience of each step in the process of making a vegan take on a deep south bbq sandwich and bananna pudding desert.
