Objects and Qualities


Tech Seminar| Winter 2023 | M.S AUD, UCLA
We will looked at edge conditions, and attempt to understand differences in their found objects and the aesthetic tension developed when combined. Pairing this investigation into edges, with still lifes, will help illuminate qualities of the initial objects while subsquently also illuminating qualities of their new objects. These models will attempt to address and generate new architectural mediums. What types of new mediums are developed by the interaction between the analog and the digital? These models will provide an initial formal and textural precedent, as we use photogrammetry to scan the objects. These pallets of models and textures will give us an asset library to work with, and further abstract with the use of machine learning. Students will use digital techniques to augment and further estrange their scanned objects. Style transfer, and diffusion models will be used to generate skins and alternative readings of the objects.


Process:

  • Kits of Parts
  • Photogrammetry
  • Stable Diffusion
  • Still Life
  • Model Production
