Framing Dubrovnik: The city as an open cinema space


Some Rules for Students and Teachers by John Cage

RULE ONE: Find a place you trust, and then try trusting it for a while. RULE TWO: General duties of a student - pull everything out of your teacher; pull everything out of your fellow students. RULE THREE: General duties of a teacher - pull everything out of your students. RULE FOUR: Consider everything an experiment. RULE FIVE: Be self-disciplined - this means finding someone wise or smart and choosing to follow them. To be disciplined is to follow in a good way. To be self-disciplined is to follow in a better way. RULE SIX: Nothing is a mistake. There is no win and no fail, there is only make. RULE SEVEN: The only rule is work. If you work it will lead to something. It’s the people who do all of the work all of the time who eventually catch on to things. RULE EIGHT: Don’t try to create and analyse at the same time. They’re different processes. RULE NINE: Be happy whenever you can manage it. Enjoy yourself. It’s lighter than you think. RULE TEN: “We’re breaking all the rules. Even our own rules. And how do we do that? By leaving plenty of room for X quantities.” (John Cage) HINTS: Always be around. Come or go to everything. Always go to classes. Read anything you can get your hands on. Look at movies carefully, often. Save everything - it might come in handy later.

Dr Cristian Suau (Chair winter term)

Contributing Staff The following internal staff is going to support winter term: Dr Cristian Suau, Dr Juliet Davis, Juliet Odgers (only Mondays), Sergio Pineda (digital weeks) and Vassilis Volakos The following external tutors have been appointed during winter term (only Fridays): Maria Kramer, Catherine Pease, Peter Feldmann, John Carter, Marcella Bellistri and Andrew Faulkner Aims and Rationale Note the AD1 Module runs over two semesters. This preview should be read in conjunction with the annual AD1 preview, which consists of term 1, term 2 (inclusive fieldwork) and 3 (Vertical Studio). AD1 term 2 builds upon the design principles and methods previously introduced through the Design Studio (term 1) and DPM1 module. The winter term of AD1 is comprised of one design project called ‘Cinema Architecture: Cinémathèque Rotterdam’, split into the following component parts: 1. Concept and Place 2. Kinetic Sequencing 3. Story Boarding and Spatial Framing 4. Sequencing and Montage 5. Implementation Design Programme The module aims to explore parallel approaches to the conceptualisation and composition of place, space, time, materiality and narrative in cinematographic and architectural practices. Beyond drawing useful implications for design, films and buildings can be read and designed as ‘assemblages’ not directed to the formal expression of meaning, but to the framing of strategic and enabling conditions of emergent sense, realised within the tectonic and material conditions of the cinematic and the architectural as such. The Cinémathèque is a compact film club situated in the old city of Rotterdam. It will have a minimum of 3 storeys. Only up to 70% of the plot might be covered. The film house’s design has to consider an inner patio for cross ventilation and natural lighting and outdoor activities. The height of the Cinémathèque’s front has to response harmoniously according to its cultural, urban and architectural immediate context. No car park and services are required. The essential programme consists of: - Indoor Cinema w/ 30 seats (double or triple height) - Courtyard (30% of the plot footprint) - Foyer (double or triple height) - Cafe bar (double height) - Archive centre (room) - Toilets (2) - Roof terraces - Circulation (staircases and/or ramps; no lifts are allowed)

Learning Outcomes At the end of the Term 1 students should have:  Understand and be able to use correctly the conventions of Plan, Section and Elevation.  An initial understanding and some ability in more refined use of these orthographic projections in relation to the intention of a drawing.  Design-oriented understanding of architectural articulation of hierarchy of space in terms of human inhabitation, with specific emphasis on the relationship between public, transitional and private realms.  Develop an understanding of the potential of three dimensional spatial drawing as a design tool at various stages of the development of a design.  Understanding of the poetic, structural and constructional potential of a simple constructional system and an ability to use it in simple architectural design.  To present an architectural design to an audience verbally with reference to images.  Be able to participate in a discussion concerning architectural ideas, and specific issues of design.


By the end of Term 2 we expect students to:  Develop a range of representational and investigative conceptualisation, drawing and modelling skills.  Understanding of the poetic potential of ‘place’ in relation to the formation of architectural intentions.  Knowledge, understanding and skills in relevant basic IT 2D/3D visualisation and drawing packages  Ability to uncover, explore and present such potential through drawn, modelled and photographic investigations (analogic or digitally).  Ability to design a contemporary compact building, well contextualised and spatially rich, to resolve the design to an appropriate level in terms of conceptualisation, function, poetics of light and space, inhabitation and assemblage. Rotterdam Fieldwork:  Study buildings in situ as a way of developing architectural understanding.  Specific emphasis on developing photographic, constructional and drawing skills through the use of on-site recording, measuring and sketching. Composition of Module Autumn Term: AD1 was built upon the design principles and methods introduced through the DPM1 module. This term was comprised of one design project, designed to extend the students’ survey of ‘Water & Dwelling’ (through DPM1, within Cardiff ) to include Purton (Boat Graveyard), situated in East side of the Severn Estuary. The project had three component parts: Touchstone, memorial and a museum. Winter Term: The major design project is called ‘Cinema Architecture Rotterdam’, which includes the study trip/fieldwork in the Netherlands. This term reflects in depth on the notion of ‘Water & Dwelling’ throughout an 11-week design project in the port city of Rotterdam. Spring Term: Vertical Studio (3 weeks)

‘Cinema: Man with a camera


Programme During the winter term, AD1 is going to be supported by the following taught modules: Architectural History (AH1) led by Adam Hardy and Architectural Technology (AT1) led by Paul Thomas. Student portfolio reviews are undertaken at the end of each semester. Formal, summative assessment occurs at the end of semester two.

Key Independent Cinemas in the UK Useful link: http://www.cinema-theatre.org.uk/listed.htm

The Tyneside Newcastle upon Tyne The original 1930s newsreel screen still functions in the magnificent art deco auditorium, and you can bring in a cocktail from the circle bar for company and watch mainstream and arthouse films from leather sofas. The Digital Lounge masquerades as a private living ¬room with sofas drawn up round the big screen; for snugness there’s the Roxy, while the Elektra does stadium-like magnitude. The 1930s tea room remains intact. You can buy your tickets along with your wine at the bar to save on queuing. Courses on cinematic themes, including filmmaking, are ¬ongoing in the on-site studios. 10 Pilgrim St, Newcastle upon Tyne ¬(tynesidecinema. co.uk, 0845 217 9909) http://www.fletcherpriest.com/ tyneside-cinema1/architecture/leisure/ The Electric Birmingham This is one of the oldest working cinemas in the UK. It focuses on art films and the more intelligent block-busters and if your concentration needs a prod you can text a waiter to bring a glass of absinthe (one of the nation’s only absinthe fountains survives here) to your sofa seat. Feed off olives, scones and handmade chocolates from the art deco bar. You can hire a room to show a film of your choice, and the in-house orchestra plays along live to a screening a handful of times a year. Station Street, Birmingham (theelectric.co.uk, 0121-643 7879) The Broadway Nottingham A startling, glass-fronted palace with a programme of old and new, quirky and mainstream across its four screens. Cinema professionals are occasionally brought in to introduce a film, and there are special screenings for older people, people with autism and parents with infants. Paul Smith designed one of the revamped auditoriums, adding funky striped sofa seats where you can down the in-house beer (Broadway Reel Ale) and delicacies imported from the cafe. Broad Street, Nottingham (broadway.org.uk, 0115 952 6611)


The Cornerhouse Manchester As much a cultural forum as a cinema, the Cornerhouse shows what artistic audacity can do to an old furniture shop. With Helen Mirren and Damien Hirst among the patrons, it was established as a charitable trust in 1985 and houses three art galleries, three cinemas, a cafe and bookshop bar. The idea is to mingle filmmakers, artists and audiences to -debate ideas. The focus is on independent films, but you’re as likely to taste culture in the cafe, which is beloved of pop groupies and emerging bands. Oxford Street, Manchester (cornerhouse.org, 0161-200 1500

The Cameo Edinburgh The stately opulence is more opera house than cinema – the interior was restored to its original 1914 glory in the 1980s, while the bar is defiantly 21st century, with leather sofas and a lengthy cocktail menu (you can take your glass into the auditorium with you). Programmes, spread over three screens, tend to be a tour through ¬cinematic history, from vintage classics, through foreign-language films, documentaries, arty stuff and current hits. Home Street, Edinburgh (www.picturehouses.co.uk, 0871 704 2052)

Cube Microplex Bristol Film It is only part of the Cube’s -function. Founded as a notfor-profit co-operative in 1998 by a couple of stilt walkers and two colleagues, it is an experiment in wild music, cult and mainstream film screenings, off-the-wall exhibitions, festivals and -burlesque. “A pig bag” is how it -describes its programmes. The building began as theatre for amateur dramatics and the old stage is still well trodden, often with the big screen being used as a back drop.

Rotterdam Sketchbook Introduction: Monday 28 January 2013 Opening -Exhibition: Friday 8 February 2013 ‘I prefer drawing to talking. Drawing is faster, and leaves less room for lies’. Le Corbusier

Preliminary sketch of Istanbul’s silhouette from the sea by Le Corbusier

Towards a critical and essential drawing: The point is not to draw pleasing looking perspective sketches, but to use your drawing to interrogate architectural and urban spaces. Finding a topic: Concentrate on using your sketch book to observe things which are relevant to your current studio project: Light, material, scale, material, and inhabitation. How do people occupy public and domestic spaces? The key figure interrogates the city from the seascape, the congested city of Istanbul offer a perfect amalgam between its topography and buildings. As result Le Corbusier fused the primal features of this cityscape: the fabric follows the geomorphological contour of Istanbul. Certainly it would be impossible to draw this outstanding sketch without a synchronised eye-to-hand coordination. Architectural sketchers do capture the space in motion, they are non-stationary observers. Use drawing to analyse light and shadows; forms; depth and spatial sequences; scales (urban and domestic ones); landscapes and greenery; flows and circulation; connections; and frames. Apart from your sketches, you will work in teams to investigate different facets of the city through streets, laneways, squares, pergolas, and so on. You have to study and measure a study are and a compound (plot) as well. Draw accurate plans and sections and details. Partial plans and sections can focus a study on one aspect. Use appropriate detail to the scale of the drawing. We do not expect hardline drawings. Nonetheless it is important to scan and represent the physical realm as complete as possible, so you can better understand the cognitive and sensorial experience holistically. Thus it is important to get proportions and ratios precise. Make ideograms to explore and represent concepts. Essential reading: ‘Voyage D’Orient Carnets’ by Le Corbusier. Phaidon Press; English Ed edition (June 24, 2002) Year meeting Meet on Monday 6 February at 09.00am, room 0.50 Exhibition: Montage: Pin-up: Pin-down:

Week 4 Friday 8 2013 (before 10.00am) Friday 8 2013 (each student has to remove each clipboard)


Every student’s work is going to be displayed, inclusive tutor’s work. We will provide one frame per students. The Sketchbook exercise consists on an individual and group event. It will culminate in an exhibition displayed on Friday 08 February 2013. Prior the montage, you will have few hour to proceed, select, edit and frame your individual sketch work and also compose your on-site group work. Mounting the exhibition Regarding the individual work, we have at our disposal 160 A4 clip frames: two for each student and tutors. You will have to scan or photocopy from your sketch book. Regarding your group work, select yourselves key plans, sections and various schemes or diagrams that refer to the study area and immediate site. You can also incorporate images in motion. Choose with the help of fellow students two illustrations from your sketch book that represent something that you wish to take forward into your design work this term. These chosen images might not be the ‘best’ but contain the essential element of your potential design. These reveal the primal aspects of your ‘proto-design’. It means ‘best’ as most interesting and relevant. You could select yourselves plans, sections and any diagrams. Judgement All tutors will judge exemplary student works. We will nominee the best individual and group drawings. Preparation Each member of the group should cover the following roles: 1. Event planning The AD1 reps will collect £3.00 from each of your fellow students for purchase of drinks and snacks; clipboards. Do not forget clearing afterwards 2. Hanging Presiding over the hang, setting up the rules and drawing the level. 3. Clearing the space Hammer and nails when needed. . 4. Distributing clip frames Distributing clip frames and packing them away at the end of the show. 5. Materials for exhibition Scanning, printing/plotting and framing images (Clip frames are the only material provided by us, but each student to finance their own printing, plotting, scanning and group editing (in foam boards). NOTE: More details will be porvide in year memeting on 4th of February 2013

Welsh School of Architecture Cardiff University Digital Sessions in Design Studio BSc 1st Year (2012/13, 2nd Term)

WEEKS 5-6 PROTO-KINETICS ANIMATED FRONTISPIECES

Methods of Assessment: Project work (crit), online submission Task Leader: Sergio Pineda Contributing Staff: design tutors from BSc 1st Year. Aims and Rationale This task has been prepared to allow connections between design creativity and computational principles and methods in architectural design. The task will introduce a number of digital tools for design inquiry. This will include digital modelling, animation, simulation of movement, cinematic studies, advanced image processing and publication (print and online). This will allow students to explore spatial and temporal narratives in the preparation of an architectural project, and to reflect critically about how such work is best represented in printed and online formats. The focus of the content is tightly coupled to that of Design Studio for the 2nd term of 2012/13. Learning Outcomes On completion of the task a student will be able to:

-

Critically evaluate the role of digital modelling and its effect on the proposed design response.

-

Creatively integrate digital tools and techniques in the design process.

-

Have an understanding of principles and methods of architectural design and representation.

Composition of the task The task will be delivered and prepared during a two-week workshop. Responding to the methodology of a digital sandbox, it will be exploratory in nature. Students will be asked to experiment with regards to narratives of time, space and structure, through digital and generative techniques. The projects will be underpinned by the following study methods:

-

Use of 2D and 3D digital modelling techniques: to investigate creative responses to design problems; to explore digital and generative design techniques; to explore temporal narratives in digital formats to generate spatial and structural designs.

-

Use of advanced image processing and layout techniques: to aggregate, superimpose and order information; to reflect critically as to how to best represent architectural designs for print and online formats, and to publish the material accordingly.

-

Use of online tutorials and resources: for self-directed learning.

Teaching will take the form of short project introductions and lectures, software demonstrations and tutorials supplemented by seminars and one-to-one tuition. Task Students will be asked to use 2d and 3d digital modelling tools (including generative and parametric software) to propose a narrative of time, space and structure for their design projects. In the week preceding the Digital Sessions, students will be asked by their Year Chair to imagine a number of key frames, or instants, within their project. Each one of these key frames will be represented as a two-dimensional image. An important reference here will be the ‘Prisons’ or ‘Carceri’ series by Giovanni Battista Piranesi.


In an initial cinematic experiment, students will be asked to: Choose an example of cinematic motion (a gymnast vaulting, a bird landing, tectonic plates shifting, a wave crashing).

-

Capture digitally the key structure of the studied movement through the selection of key frames, and produce (through generative techniques) the interstitial geometries in between key frames.

-

Produce a micro-film – a 5 second animated sequence – to convey the temporal, spatial and structural narrative of the studied movement.

A second cinematic production will require the use of the spatial key frames for their projects, produced during the weeks previous to the Digital Sessions. Students will be asked to: Translate to a vectorial medium the key geometries of each and every key frame they prepared previously. Complete the interstitial structures in between key frames. This may be done generatively (allowing the software to complete the interstitial geometries), or compositionally (through 3d modelling). Create a camera and define its movement through the scene to represent a sequential time/space experience. Export video and images to convey the cinematic narrative and the generated structural arrangements. Publish the material (print and online).

Timetable Within the structure of this term, the digital sessions belongs to the design studio entitled ‘Cinema Architecture, Part 2, on Kinetic Sequencing, which is detailed as follows: WEEK 4 (04-08/02): WEEK 5 (11-15/02): WEEK 6 (18-22/02):

Cinema Architecture Rotterdam Design Brief The module aims to explore parallel approaches to the conceptualisation and composition of place, space, time, materiality and narrative in cinematographic and architectural practices. Beyond drawing useful implications for design, films and buildings can be read and designed as ‘assemblages’ not directed to the formal expression of meaning, but to the framing of strategic and enabling conditions of emergent sense, realised within the tectonic and material conditions of the cinematic and the architectural as such. The Cinémathèque is a compact cinema club situated in the port city of Rotterdam. It is a flexible space restricted to one main staircase. In order to respond properly to the immediate urban or nautic surroundings of each chosen site. You will design this building under the principles of simplicity, flexibility and adaptability as a playful game of double and triple heights. It is all about dealing with cubic meters rather that square meters! The height of the Cinémathèque’s front has to response harmoniously according to the cultural, urban landscape. No car park and services are required. Up to 2/3 of the plot should be covered. allowing the use of open spaces such as terraces or inner patios for cross ventilation, natural lighting and outdoor film activities (i.e.: night seasonal film projections). The essential programme consists of: - Indoor Cinema w/ 36 seats (double or triple height) - Courtyard, terraces - Foyer (double or triple height) - Cafe bar (double height) - Archive centre (double height) - Public toilet - Roof terrace


A. Essential Spaces Indoor Cinema The main cinema room will have a seated capacity of around 100 with space for wheelchairs, and will feature digital projectors and surround sound (double or triple height). The cinema will also act as a multimedia performance area. Courtyard Due to the climatic conditions of the chosen sites, the filmhouse can offer an uncovered space. Despite it should provide natural ventilation and lighting to educational and social rooms, it might be occupied as an open air cinema or exhibition at night, preferably during summertime. Foyer The foyer has to contain the ticketing and info box. It is connected with the café bar. It performs as the main spatial distributor (double or triple height). Cafe bar The cafe bar will offer a range of food and drink, with free Internet access and Wi Fi (double height). Archive centre The centre is part of the Cinémathèque building and have one office, one store and one filing rooms. It contains the largest archives of films, movie documents and film-related objects of Rotterdam city and its Film Festival. (double height). Public toilet The allocation of public toilets (2) should be located close to the cafe bar, foyer and cinema room (single height).


Roof terraces The Cinémathèque Rotterdam should offer the occupancy of some roofs to contemplate the waterscape of Rotterdam and also offer open-air visual projections for a reduced audience. Circulation The vertical circulation consists of one central staircase. Due to its domestic scale, do not allocate any lift. B. Additional Spaces Apart from the basic programme, your filmhouse should include one of the following supplementary facilities in the design development: 1. Recording studio The recording studio will include live rooms (2) suitable for recording a variety of groups and bands, and a control room kitted out with the latest digital recording equipment (single or double height). 2. Rehearsal areas The Cinémathèque Dubrovnik will have 3 areas for a range of rehearsal uses including bands, DJs and drama groups. These rooms will make it suitable for dance groups too (single or double height). 3. Multimedia production suite A well specified multimedia production suite will be provided for film, TV, web design, animation, digital arts and music production (single or double height). 4. Education facilities The Cinémathèque Dubrovnik has been designed with education in mind: the cinema can be used as a lecture theatre, the recording studio has a large control room to accommodate music technology students. The multimedia suite is suitable for training and there is a dedicated 20 seat teaching room - 2nd cinema screen (double height).
