OTHER WORKS

Throughout history, society has sought to distinguish a clear boundary between the real and the imaginary in the context of cinema. The imaginary has a specific place in society: the cinema. The necessity of separating the two ideas compels us to challenge this idea.

According to what we have been taught, the real and imaginary are polar opposites, as if they are on opposite sides of a spectrum. However, this concept of the real and imaginary is wrong. To be separate is to say these two are mutually exclusive events, meaning that both can not happen at the same time.

Our cinema attempts to transform the idea that the real and imaginary go hand in hand; that the two can intersect. This form highlights these concepts through directional movements that attempt to intertwine and blend the separation from the real and the imaginary; and our understanding of their dependence on one another.

FOOD + FASHION

Fashion designers and chefs are part of the most wasteful industries. This residency brings together chefs and fashion designers in collaboration to lessen waste in their respective industries. The chefs will create zero waste meals, meaning no plastic packaging, composting, growing vegetables and fruits, and recycling. The kitchens would have 3D food printers that help reduce waste of edible scrap food. The chefs will work closely with the five fashion designers by helping source materials for creating fabrics and textiles using PET (polyethylene terephthalate) plastic bottles, vegetables/fruits, and coffee grounds.

BESSEMER FARMER’S MARKET

At least 33% of the 6,116 residents of the Bessemer area in Pueblo, Colorado, live more than a mile from a grocery store, making it a food desert. Through the site analysis displayed on page 21 this location is the best place for the community to produce and enjoy food due to its central location and proximity to the neighborhood. This farmer’s market will bring much needed food security to the Bessemer community.

SHELTER

This serves as a shelter from the monotony of daily life. It is a place where guests can be both physically and mentally present. The visitors are compelled to pay closer attention to their surroundings and are taken off the autopilot theme of daily life by the entrances, which are either narrower or broader than a regular opening and all steps are either higher or shorter than necessary.

INITIATIVE 99

In Austin, Texas approximately 20% of the children who age out of foster care will become instantly homeless. This leaves them without the benefits and resources the foster care system provides. A 3D printed community specifically for former foster children will provide the needed stability and community required to successfully transition into adult hood. By utilizing the ICON 3D printing technology these homes can be printed for less than $99,000.

35 Community Layout

Each 100’ x 38’ print bed has two 3d printed homes and community courtyard. Each home is approximately 388 square feet with 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, and a private patio.
