感谢您的溢美之辞 Thank you for that distinguished sounding introduction
我们列出很多东西 There is a long list of things
感谢你们全部都阅读 thank you for reading them all,
我们正致力于编写一本书 it's true we are doing a book
与普林斯顿建筑出版社合作 with princeton architectural press,
这本专著叫做《扩展的实践》 called expanded practice. it is a monograph book
我们觉得它还不太成熟 and we feel that it is a bit premature,
尽管如此 我们编写这本书时 but we're doing it nonetheless and actually
它让我们想到自己的工作 doing the book got us thinking about the work
这样编写书不是个糟糕的想法 and it's not a bad idea to do a book to sort of
它能表明你正在做什么 figure out what you're doing.
它是一种释放 灵魂的追寻 So it sort of unleashed a kind of sort of soul searching
追寻我们所从事的 in terms of what is it that we do and
以及它对建筑的意义 what does it mean for architecture.
我们常被当作灯光设计师 Often times we are cast as lighting designers
协调师 设计师或家具设计师 or interaction or designers or furniture designers
或服装设计师 但我们接受的是建筑教育 or clothing designers but we are trained as architects
我们总在不停穿梭 and we tend to migrate across these kinds of
自由的穿梭于不同学科领域 disciplinary boards fairly fluidly and
我们想法丰富 因此编写本书 we think fairly productively and so doing the book is
是理解这一切的好方法 a great way to try to kind of make sense of it all
这不是刻意设计的 and it not something that was by design it kind of
它是从众多可能性中浮现出的机会 emerged from opportunities from possibilities
我们在主动做一些项目 and some unsolicited projects that we sort of pursued
自行研究也成为一种研究方向 on our own as a kind of research stream.
我们要展现一些成果 So we're going to show you some of these things
希望能真正说明 And hopefully make sense of some of
我们所做工作的丰富多样 the diversity of work that we are doing.
"扩展的实践"这一名词说明了 The term expanded practices evokes a kind of
对各种学科的理解 understanding of disciplines and I think that
这是我们经常思考的事情 it's something that we're thinking about a fair amount
由于当我们谈及各学科时 particularly we talk about discourse and disciplinary
但现在的经济条件下 我们谈论生存 but now that given the economy we talk about survival
但能为自己和自己的工作定位 and somehow positioning yourself and your work and
你做的工作也许是丰富多彩的 the kind of work that you do maybe diversity is
它是好事 你也能因此易于生存 a good thing and you can sort of survive longer
但你若从事扩展的或多个领域 if you're somehow expanded or multi disciplinary
我们要展示的是一些 So we're going to show you a few of
在整个工作中的一些主题 the kind of themes that cut through the work
它们的名字有趣 如信封和版式 they have funny names like envelopes and format
但开始时 我们要展示这个 but let me start. We like to show you this
这是我们的宣传照 我们的办公室 because this is our publicity shot, this is our office
它看起来很整洁 这是白天 and it looks very clean, it's day time,
人人都在工作 办公室很整洁 everybody's working, the office is clean,
它晚上看起来就是这样 this is what it looks like usually at night time.
乱成一团 没有人 It is a huge mess nobody's, nobody's',
哦 还是有一些人在的 oh well the some people are there, anyways.
我们把工作室当作商店 We treat the studio as a kind of shop,
它看起来像是楼上 乱糟糟的 it looks kind of like upstairs actually, it's messy,
有布料 缝纫机和木材 there's fabric, there's sewing machines, there's wood
有锯条 还有很多计算机 there's saws, there's all kinds of stuff computers.
但我们把办公室当作这样的地方 But we do treat the office as a kind of place to
是做调查的工作室 调查材料 do studio like investigations, with material,
以及计算机 我们还要展示 with computers and we will show you
一些非常多产的交换活动 some of that sort of productive exchange.
当我们受邀编写这部专著时 So when we were asked to do this monograph
我们做的第一件事就是 the first thing that we did was that
我们做出项目的索引 we took an index of our projects and
把它们编为各种可能的门类 we basically catalogued them in every possible format
根据种类或主题 so we looked at by type or by theme and
我们发现最有趣的是 we found that it was actually most interesting to
根据主题编排它们 organise them by thematics that
即以不同尺度评价一个观点 actually tested an idea across different scales.
因此要分门别类 So to break up the typology of
区分服装与书籍与建筑 clothing versus book versus building.
我们要展示的第一个项目是 One of the first projects that I'm going to show
在此系列中它特别地关注表面 in this series that looks specifically at surface
它们也就是之后的"信封" which then became later Envelopes.
但我先要播放Rudofsky的幻灯片 But I would like to show this Rudofsky slide
左边是日本服装 which shows a Japanese garment on the left
右边是一件西式服装 and a western garment on the right
它们很不同 and the difference between them where
其一是关于身体与形式 one deals with the idea of the body and form through
强调或者偏向于材料生产 a kind of emphasis or bias towards material production
因此基本如弧线和型号之类的事情 so based on the width things like, curvature and size
主是要褶皱 包裹或铺设 are taken up by the fold or wrapping or laying and
右图强调身体 the right privillaging the body, and then
你可以看到多余的材料碎片 you see the kind of residual pieces of material
它们被当作剩余材料 that are kind of considered the left over and this
而这种项目叫做莫比乌斯服装 kind of instigated the project called the Mobius dress
它主要关注真正的莫比乌斯带 which basically looked at a literal Mobius strip,
这是一种拓扑学 有一个半螺旋 which is a topology with one and a half twists
而它真正关注的是 and it looked at the actually
如何解开莫比乌斯带 因为 the unravelling of the Mobius strip because
这紧凑的拓扑面有趣的是 what's very interesting about this compact manifold is
你若绕着它的周长 that if you follow it along it's perimeter,
它有一种裂开的功能 it has a splitting function
它形成更长的环 where is creates a longer loop
它也旋转一周半 which has one and a half twists and
另一个环与它相交 another loop which intersects it.
莫比乌斯的根本想法是 The Mobius dress was essentially the idea of
你如何将外表面穿在里面 how you could wear this inside outside surface and
它会围绕身体的结构 it would essentially be structured by the body and as
当它安上很长的 最长的拉链时 it unravelled the longest, very very super long zipper,
它的形式就会改变 it transformed in terms of its form
随着身体本身发生变化 in relationship to the body itself.
因此穿这种衣服就是为了将它脱下 So it is a dress worn to be unworn essentially
但莫比乌斯裙子却重在研究一个环 but the studies for the Mobius dress looked at a loop;
这个环转了半圈 有一个半的螺旋 a loop with a half twist; a loop with one and a half;
还有两个环 and then a double loop
然后就是拉链发挥作用 and then again the operation of the zipper
接着就是我们认为重要的材料 and then in terms of the material we thought important
它不是弯曲的也不是横的 that it had no warp and no weft
它是由可回收的毡制成的 so it's made out of industrial recycled felt.
另外一个项目是基于此的 An then another project that built on that
它研究持续的表面 one was also looking at the idea of continuous surface
但却是在内部空间中 but in an interior space and result to
它带来与Enrique Norten在一个项目的合作 collaborate with Enrique Norten on a project
在古根海姆以及巴黎展会 at the Guggenheim for the Aztec and Paris show.
这主要是设计一个装物支架 And the project was basically to design an armature
它要能容纳400件物品 to hold a little more than 400 objects, and
物品大小在2×2厘米之间 the object vary from 2 times to 2 cm in scale,
它的排布由馆长决定 and the organisation was determined by a curator
我们最早发现的事情是 but the first thing that we learned was that
物品与旋转体不契合 the objects didn't fit in the rotator
如果直接绕着圆周前进的话 if you went straight up the perimeters
我们必须使表面更大 因此使其变成波形 so we had to create surplus surface, so we undulated
在这一系统的内外表面 the surface in and out of the bay system
在古根海姆内产生更大的长度 within the Guggenheim to create extra length to
来容纳所有的物品 因为 house all the objects and because there was
有大量的物品 我们认为 such a massive quantity we thought that
考虑到一个表面是很实用的 it would be useful to think about one surface
它可以容纳所有物品 that would accommodate all the objects
但必须受到一些局限规则 but through very localised rules basically
每件物品都贴上了标签 each object is tagged from the beginning with words
写上借出物品机构的名称 being lent from and the institution that lends the object
这决定了它是否必须放在玻璃窗中 determines wether it needs to be behind glass,
还是可以放在外部 是否要控制温度等 can be out, needs thermally controlled etc
我们都明白这些标准 so all this criteria were understood as well as
也知道这些物品的规格 the scale of these objects some of them
其中有一些很重 必须分担它的重量 weighed so much that you had to distribute load etc.
我们就做了一个基本的工具 So what we did was we made a basic tool that
能够将所有物品放在空间中 allowed us to put all the objects in the space and
分别给它们设置了参数 then assign them the parameter
每件物品有它自己的参数 that were specific to the object and
作为设计工具 我们安排物品时 then as a design tool we could organise these
听取了馆长的嘱咐 我们建议 as the curator wanted them, we could suggest
一些排序的其他方法 alternate ways was of doing the sequencing etc
并把这当作一种反复使用的设计工具 and then use this as a back and forth design tool
而馆长则关注总体 with the curator to look at the total kind of
所有这些想法在空间中的呈现 spatial manifestation of these ideas.
真正的物品最后裹上了毛毡 So the actual project materialised in a felt and
我们用了一种深黑褐色的毛毡 we used a very dark felt it was dark brown / black,
它是客户定制的 它是刻意选取的 which was custom made, I mean custom created to
为了中和古根海姆轻快的色调 kind of counteract the lightness of the Guggenheim
我们选用这种厚实的毛毡也因为 but we also wanted it to be this kind of thick felt
它不仅能容纳物品 such that it kind of absorbed not only the objects
也能吸引光和声音 but also light and sound, and so
它像是一个深沉暗色的信封 it creates this kind of deep dark mute envelope
与古根海姆内部形成对比 against the Guggenheim interior,
有趣的是它也能吸引声音 but it also absorbs sound which was pretty interesting
因为古根海姆是充满活力的空间 because the Guggenheim is a extremely live space,
这种条件下 音质的改变 but in this condition the change of the sonic qualities
也能影响你对它空间质量的理解 affected your understanding of it's spatial qualities.
这里有一些图片 这里有一些物品 So here are some views, here are some objects
它们就位于玻璃阁中 that have to be behind glass and in the end
馆长决定它们的排列顺序 the curator determined the sequencing,
你可以看到每一件物品 you can see how each object is basically has
还有一种容器 我们将其称作容器周长 a custom pocket we call them pocket perimeters
还有一种过渡的规则 and then there is a rule about the transition
在不同的容器架子之间的过渡 between the different pocket shelves, in the end
它是拉出来的 而不是按钮 it was actually drawn as opposed to press a button
就是这样 and there it goes.
我们想要使半径变得更有效果 And we tried to be efficient about the radii etc
但每一个架子都是定制的 even though every shelf was custom so that
那么我们就可以使其更高效地使用 it could be built a little bit more efficiently.
容器还有另外一个好处 The other thing about the pockets were in addition to
它不仅能容纳物品 the pockets for the actually objects
还有一些空间容器 there were spatial pockets that
它们构成这种迷你展览馆 created these mini galleries
你如果回到其中 会觉得非常神奇 so if you went back into them it was pretty amazing
你再听不到古根海姆中的声音 you lost the live sound of the Guggenheim itself.
我把它们拿出来了 但在顶端的架子上 Oh I think I took those out. But on the top level
古根海姆最难的事情是 the most difficult thing with the Guggenheimis
最顶层 你怎么样处理它呢? the top floor and how you deal with that,
有些人过来 走过来 some people come up, walk up,
有些人乘坐电梯或扶梯 some people take the elevator to ramp 5
然后走下来 and then walk down,
那么展览就必须是双向的 so the exhibition had to work in both directions
但我们希望在顶部 如果你走上来 but at the top we wanted to if you walked up
还要延续你之前的感受 to make the experience continuous,
这时你可以同时占据两面墙壁 it's the moment that you can occupy both sides of wall
你可以从背面走上来 and you actually walk up on this backside
再从前面走下来 and then you come down on the front side,
那也就是 你从这边走上来 so basically you come up this side
再从那边走下去 and then you walk down that side.
从空间上来说 从流通角度来说 So spatially in terms of circulation
它创造了一种连续循环 it creates that continuous loop condition and then
我们在这里设立了玻璃橱窗 this is where we create the environmental vitrines
它们有独特的热性能 which are the ones that have specific thermal property
我们利用了这种条件 and we actually use that condition where
在这里 你必须走到毛毡边 you have to go up to the edge of the felt to see
才能看到贵重的展品 有一种厚实感 these precious objects and the thickness and the depth
它们使墙壁有一种横向稳定性 created the lateral stability for the wall itself.
在几年前 我们受邀参加 a couple years ago we were asked to participate
PS1青年建筑师大赛 in the PS1 young architects competition,
我对它非常熟悉 and I'm sure familiar with this, it seems to be
它像是青年建筑师的试验场地 a testing ground for young architects where
他们在这里尽情发挥 they throw themselves at this site and
有人完成了令人难忘的作品 some of the most memorable ones have been done
他们是SHoP和Hernan Diaz Alonso by SHoP and Hernan Diaz Alonso
我们对他们敬仰已久 我们非常高兴 and people that we admire. We were thrilled to
能参加PS1大赛 现代艺术的顶级博物馆 compete PS1 is a museum queens for contemporary art
它们有一个极大的后院 这里一边 they had a large courtyard, that's the side
它们每年在这里放满了 and every year they fill it with some sort of
建筑用的脚手架 都是为各类活动准备 scaffold architectural scaffold for activities such as that
我们接受了这项本不会尝试的任务 so we took on this task we decided not to try
制作了这样的产品 and make an object typically these sort of
这是一些高级的建筑品 advanced architectural artefacts take on
它们有着雕刻般的特质 a kind of sculptural quality and
我们本想拒绝这种雕刻 we wanted to refuse the kind of sculptural.
我们想到一些领域 一些填充物 So we thought of some sort of field or fill or
一些铸件 我们准备了一些数据点 some sort of casting. We planned some data points
我们使用了这些数据点来创造 and we used those data points to create
一种三维的泰森多边形细胞群 a three dimensional voronoi cellular aggregate,
头顶细胞萃取物的形状 that we extracted into a series of vertices
再赋予它们风格变成这种形式 then stylised them to create this form.
这一形式的几何学是来自庭院 This form takes it geometry from the courtyard
它本身并不算一个物品 so it's actually not an object
它是一种宏大的环境 it's an immersive environment,
我们想要建造的一种东西是 and we really wanted to create something that
在这里可以有不同的行为 比如 could enable different behaviours like, you know
这里有静坐和日光浴的空间 there's room for sitting and sunbathing and
这里也有一些水 there's always some sort of water element
在这里可以跳舞 还有小丛林 there's dancing, so this is the kind of jungle space,
它并不是一个物品 it's not, is emphatically not an object
它是完全开放的 也装满了东西 it's 100 percent open although it's also 100 percent full
它有一种泡沫的特质 so it has a kind of quality of a foam.
我们看到一种结构 And we were looking at kind of structures that
它们也有这种特质 比如肥皂泡 have these properties like soap bubbles and so on
不是在外形或者几何方面 not in terms of image or geometry
而是都为经济实用的材料 but the kind of economy of material that
像是进入肥皂泡中 以此为巢 goes into a soap bubbles the way it nests
再紧紧挤压肥皂泡 and presses against other soap bubbles.
我们有志向建造 So that was the kind of an ambition to create
像肥皂泡沫内部一样的环境 this sort of foamy bubbly interior environment that,
它必须提供一些规则 I mean the rules are that it has to provide
既有阴凉又有座位 我们认为 shading and seating and so we thought
它符合了这些标准 it met those requirements.
它也带来了一种趣味 It also has to provoke a kind of euphoric fun funness
我们努力为建筑赋予乐趣 so we were working hard at that with architecture.
我们给他们看了这个 认为百分之百 So we show them this and we thought surely
我们肯定能得奖 但很遗憾 并没有 we would win but no sadly we didn't
对于我们 这是两个月的调研项目 but it was a two month research project for us
也算是一种邂逅 and this was a kind of encounter,
这是一种对物质材料的探寻 for us it was a material exploration
我们从纸模型开始 弯曲的纸 we started with paper models and bending paper
看用什么样的辐条 and seeing what kind of radiuses
可以把它们镶嵌在一起 we could make nesting them together,
我们也考虑到座位 we looked at seating elements
它看起来像是休闲区域 it seemed to be a kind of lounging space and
可以从主体找到什么样的几何图形 what kind of geometries we could take from the body
来构成这种闲散的休闲区 that would promote the kind of languid lounging.
我们在纸模型上来回试验 We worked back on forth between paper models
计算机展示了一个任意的模型 and the computer here unrolling a random model.
我们学到很多 因为用纸实验很容易 we learned a lot about this because paper is very easy
在计算机中设计复曲线 to create compound curvature in the computer we
我们发现有的形状不会自然出现 found some of those shapes didn't come so naturally
因此使用脚本 使用材料 so using scripting using material in a kind of
这种多产的交换是我们的一项突破 productive exchange was a kind of breakthrough for us
在这个项目中使用聚丙烯 它是塑料 on this project this is polypropylene, it's a plastic
它是可循环的 在加热条件下可塑性 we discovered that's recycled, heat mouldable.
我们在炉子中塑性 Here we are moulding it in an oven
在木制模具中使它成形 forming it around these wooden moulds,
将它夹住固定 再生产一种细胞 clamping it in place and producing a kind of cell,
一些是用纸开始实验制作的 so some of it began with paper,
经过折叠演变过程 went through rhino in a kind of unfolding process
最后用实际材料制作 and ultimately ended up back in a material reality
证明材料是可以塑性的 trying to prove how the material could be moulded
就建造了这种休闲区 and create this kind of lounge-scape
这是此项目中很有趣的一部分 was an interesting thing for this project and
因为没获胜 我们很受挫 we were devastated by not having won this one
但我们还继续做这些东西 but we continued to make these things and
我们尝试了不同的几何图形 we tried different geometries and different kinds of
有不同的限制 把它们叫做"环椅" inhibitions we call these loop chairs
它们很像莫比乌斯服饰 they are similar to the Mobius dress and
它们所担心的古根海姆 the Guggenheim they are concern
是表面的延续性 was a kind of continuity of surface,
是材料的表面 a kind of material surface
同时也是一种空间质量 but also a very spatial quality you know
我们是家具设计师 是建筑师 we are not furniture designers we are architect
即使我不认同莫比乌斯的室内外装修 so even as the refuses interior and exterior I think
也认为这既是一种椅子 these things produce both a chair and a kind of
也是建筑老定义中称的"内部" interior in a very banal definition of architecture.
下一组项目考虑的是 So the next set of projects kind of look at the idea of
在这一领域的互动和设计研究 interaction and our design research in the area.
研究的首批项目中有一个叫作 One of the first projects that kind of studied this was
防御衣 它是一件衣服 called defensible dress. Basically it was a garment to
保护个人领域 免受他人干扰 protect ones personal space from people
那些人可能侵犯私人空间 that were infringing on that personal space
它对于我们 是非常有趣的项目 and it's and interesting project for us in that
它有三种互动 一是非常简单的 it had three iterations the first one was pretty primitive
使用电机 微控制器和传感器 using server motors and a microcontroller and a sensor
但我们重做了这一项目 but then we actually redid the project
那是几年之后的事 用了不同材料 a couple years later with a different material
我们用了镍钛诺 那是形状记忆合金 we used nitinol which is a shape memory alloy
基本上没有服务器 and basically there's no servers
也没有电机 它的原理是 there's no motors in this thing a what's happening is
当传感器发现 when the sensor detects that
有人侵犯了私人空间 someone has actually invaded your space
你还可以自己调整设定 and you can actually calibrate and control
你自己的私人空间范围 what you define as your personal space,
有一股电流 then it there is an electric charge and
电流会使细线变热 that electric charge heats up this tiny wire
它接着就会收缩 which then contracts so that's
它们就会离开表面 what's creating the leaver action
松枝一样的细条就会竖起 and lifting up the pines or quills.
这一项目 这一项目的研究 And that project actually the research in that project
带来叫"白色噪音 白色灯光"的项目 led to a project called White Noise White Light
我们这次很幸运地获胜了 which we were very fortunate to win,
它受邀参加国际设计大赛 it was an invited international design competition,
我也不知道为何要邀请我们 I don't know why we were invited.
但我们的提议非常简单 But we proposed a field essentially very very simple
它也是非常直接的 and straight forward that would kind
它通过身体的时候会对其反应 respond to the body as it moved through it,
我们的想法是它会占据整块领地 the idea was that this field would occupy the landscape
而不是精心设计的 but instead of being lets say choreographed to behave
如一整块光导纤维 as one whole piece each fibre optic stock
它传导二级发光管中的白光 that is transmitting white light from a set of LEDs
高板的下面也会发出噪音 below a raised deck would also emit light noise
我们的想法是这是一种积累 and the idea was that it was all about accumulation
而这种积累却是 but a kind of accumulation so that
光的定义就是一种积累 the definition of light is the accumulation
它能创造一种同化的条件 that actually creates a kind of homogenous condition
因此每块光纤都有一个传感器 so here basically each stock has a sensor and
它们局部反应 而不是连成网络 it's responding locally they're not networked together
因此是由人们设计效果 so it's the public that is actually choreographing effects
通过他们在场地中的行动 in this field by their movements through it.
这完全是经过精心设计的 These were totally staged. I mean
我们穿过这片场地 we were wondering through this thing
以一种精心设计好的方式穿越 in a perfectly choreographed way,
但别人使用的方式却很奇怪 but what was surprising was how it was used by others
它从不会产生预想的效果 and you'll see it never worked the way
不像我们想象的 事实上 we had imagined because in fact
大众很难控制 the public is very hard to control and
场地里也有众多的人 there were a lot of people in the field
那么这个项目就会变得有趣 so what became very interesting about that project
因为我们最后意识到 was in the end we realised that we were actually just
我们只为大家提供了一种设施 providing this infrastructure for the public to inhabit
而人们却有各种各样有趣的方式 and that public was finding all sorts of interesting ways
来使用这块场地 有人想折断它 to use that field so from trying to break it to
也有人跑过去 或者在其中聚成一团 running through it or congregating around it or in it etc
但我们还是得到了 Somehow we got into this sort of
电子线路和互动作用 niche of electronics and interaction and
在雅典看过项目的人要求我们 someone who had seen the project in Athens asked us
在华盛顿布置一块永久的场地 to do a permanent installation in Washington D.C
这里是白宫 so here's the White House
这里是佛蒙特州大道 here's Vermont Ave and
旁边是步行街 this side was an empty piece of sidewalk
在一座办公楼前 in front of an office building and
办公楼看起来就是这样的 the office building looked kind of like this
他说 你们可以设计一下这里 and he said you know can you do something here,
我们说好的 我们就回去了 and we said sure of course and so we went back
我们思考了很久 and we were thinking,
怎么利用人行道旁的空地 what would make this empty piece of side walk
使它变成充满活力的场地? into a sort of dynamic space?
我们在雅典学到一些东西 Some of the lessons that we learnt from Athens
即你必须要做的就是 were that all you have to do was
提供微型的人工智能 provide a kind minor form of intelligence in the
安装在材料中 它对一些行为有反应 material that could react to unexpected behaviours
它们也会带来一些新的行为 and they could provoke all kinds of new behaviours
我们就提出了这两点 and so we proposed two things.
我们给一个取名"声音丛林" One is this what we call the Sound Grove
它是互动的 你碰到它时 this was also interactive in that as you touch it,
它就会变亮 发出不同的音调 it lights up and it triggers different musical notes
每一块光纤都是不同的乐器 each stock is a different instrument,
每一节都奏出不同的音符 each segment is a different musical note
它就像是"白色噪音 白色灯光" the idea was that like White Noise White Light
人们会穿越其中 the public would come through and
人们会自娱自乐 sort of play it on their own.
但它使用了不同的技术 But it uses different technologies
我会展示一些 我们希望 I'll show you some of that. Our hope was that
这能改变公共空间 this would transform the public space
办公楼前的空间 in front of the building and
它算是一种公共空间项目的回归 sort of reposition it as a public space project.
另外一部分 我们取名为 The other part of this was what we call
"光线之流" 这是一种公共厕所 the light stream which is this sort of latrine
里面有二极管象素网络 which has this LED pixel net in it.
它同时也是一种 And this was also a kind of,
我们认为是一种公共领域 we were thinking about the public realm and
尤其是911事件后的华盛顿 in Washington in particular after 9.11 there is
人们执迷于监视控制 this kind obsession with surveillance with control
到处都是摄像头 there are cameras everywhere
我们认为可以得到些视频 we thought that maybe we could take some of that
从监控摄像头中获取 feed from a surveillance camera and
将它在公众面前播放 broadcast it back in to the public so that
人们就可以了解自己 the public was would sort of understand themselves
他们自己的监控范围内 as being within the kind of field of surveillance
同时也是一种娱乐性互动 but also in a entertain a playful interaction
是一种数字人生 with the digital shadow.
因此第二部分就是"光线之流" So this is second part the light stream part
这也算一种建筑标识 that is partially a kind of building signage
这正是客户想要的 但我们却 that's what the client wanted but into that we kind of
更换了这一想法 smuggled this other kind of idea
这也是一种玩闹 which was about this kind of playfulness
是重新书写官方内容的能力 this kind of ability to overwrite official content
不再是商业的 from the commercial side and this took
我们做了很多调研 the form of a lot of sort of research and development
在电子工业方面的调研 in terms of the electronics themselves.
我们有这一想法 给它调音 Ok so we had this idea we pitched it
我们也不清楚怎么做 we didn't quite know how we could do it
但我们有信心找到解决之道 but we were confident that we could figure it out
我们说确实有象素网络 and we said a pixel net surely there's one out there
但并没有 我们必须自己制造 but there wasn't so we had to figure out
要怎样制作呢 how to make one and
这是一小块定制的电子设备 so this is a little piece of custom electronics.
它是轧制的铝片 It's an extruded aluminium piece
里面有两个发光二极管 which has two LEDs in it,
上面有柔性电路板 there's a flexible circuit board on it and
小块白塑料夹住电线 this little white plastic clamps the wire and
线把它支撑起来 so the wire both holds it up structurally,
为它传输电流 it sends power to it and also addresses it and
有这四根电线 我们就能制造 so with these four cables we can actually create
可访问的发光二极管屏幕 one strand that is fully addressable as a LED screen
我们做了大量的研发 essentially so we did a lot of R&D
这是在布鲁克林的Will Pickering this is Will Pickering in Brooklyn
彻底检验这些导线束 sort of testing out these strands,
我们订制了所有这些东西 有8000个象素点 we custom fabricated all this stuff, about 8000 pixels
它们在这里悬浮起来 and they are sort of here suspended the thing about it is
你可以看穿 也有很多 that you can see right through it and there are plenty of
二级发光管 你可以盖上不透明表面 LED products that you can put on a opaque surface
但你若想在透明表面做 but if you want to do it on a transparent surface
想要与别人互动 so that you can interact with someone
通过你必须自己制作的屏幕 through the screen you have to make your own
这就是我们做的 这一个在序列之外 so that's what we did. This one is out of sequence.
还有一个 我们称作"low res" The other thing about what we call low res
它也是二极管象素网络 which is the LED pixel net was that
色彩动力学会产生类似的东西 colour kinetics actually produces something like that
但它就像是圣诞节的灯光 but it is like a Christmas light and
我们不想利用一个产品 it was our desire to not use a product
但想让它正常工作 but get it to be exactly right that
那我们就必须专心致志于制造 forces us down this path of creating
我们自己的LED双面象素板 our own kind of LED double sided pixels,
这是个难题 我们找不到一个人 that was the conundrum, we couldn't find anyone
会制作双面象素板的人 that produces a double sided pixel.
这个图表呈现的是 This is just a diagram that actually shows that
与"白色噪音 白色灯光"不同 here unlike White Noise White Light the poles are
这些灯管一亮就全亮 network together so as soon as you trigger one all the
其他的灯管都能感应哪个受到触动 other poles know which other one has been triggered
也会带动场地中的其他灯管 and actually triggers another one in the field.
它想要包围声音或者将其传播 It tries to envelope or moves the sound around
从而设立一块信封一样的空间 to create a kind of enveloping space.
这也是设计建筑工程 This was also a design build project,
那些制造者都筋疲力尽 离开了 our fabricator totally flaked on us and skipped town, so
我们左右为难 只好自己制造 we were stuck trying to produce these thing ourselves
有环形电路板 these are the doughnut circuit boards,
它们必须是环形的 因为 and they have to be doughnuts because
它们必须嵌在内部磁极与 they have to fit between a inner structural pole
外部电容式敏感元件之间 and an outer capacity sensing pole.
这是我父母的车库 And this is my parents garage,
这是那玩意儿的顶部 that's the brain of the thing, and
我们必须自己动手安装 we basically had to assemble this thing ourselves
在一些电子工程师的帮助下 with some assistance of some electronics engineers
但最后在艰苦工作之后 But in the end after a lot of pain
我们终于大功告成 we were able to get it done,
我认为有趣的事情是 and I think what was really interesting was
有一个问题 you know the question of
人们是否会在公共场所碰触这些东西 will people touch things in public space and
我们的看法是 what we thought was and
我们发现有趣的是 what we found to be interesting was
小孩认为他们可以随便玩耍 that kids know that they're supposed to play in it,
这个女孩跑来跑去 and this girl was like running around,
她爸爸跟在后面大喊 and her father came a little bit later and yells,
"不要碰那玩意儿" "don't touch that!".
我们项目的范围非常明确 So we were also, so our project range scale clearly
我们预算也有限 因此有人问我们 but also in budget so we were asked
能否用4000美元做点设计 if there is anything that we could do for $4000
这是新奥尔良的AIA邀请我们 and it was asked to us by the New Orleans AIA
在卡特里娜飓风过后 我们说当然 after Katrina and so we said surely
我们可以用4000美元做一些事情 There is something that we could do for $4000 and
这是"装饰节庆"的一部分 it was part of this festival called the Decor Festival
它们想把公众带回到 where they wanted to bring the public back to the
法国地区 邀请不同的建筑师 French quarter and so they asked different architects
以及设计师生产现代装置 and designers to produce temporary installations
大约在10到20天内完工 for like between 10 and 20 days
要使这些私人空间活跃起来 to activate these private courtyard spaces which were
由私人业主把它变为公共空间 turned over into public space by the private owners.
我们想做离网型照明 So we decided we wanted to do something off grid
如果我们要在新奥尔良设计 if we were going to build something in New Orleans
我们想要做离网型照明 we wanted to make a comment about being off grid
我们就制造了这种太阳顶篷 and so we created this sort of solar canopy
使用了灵活的光电膜 using basically flexible photovoltaic film,
就在这个地点 所有的东西都是现成的 this is the site, and everything was kind of ready made
除了微控制器 except for the micro controller because
我们预算紧张 时间不足 we were on such a tight budget and tight time frame
这是有弹性的光电膜 So basically this is a flexible photovoltaic film
微控制器彩虹管 a micro controller LED rope light
以及一些可充电电池 and some rechargeable batteries.
这个控制器是非常智能的 That's the controller which actually is pretty intelligent
因为它能使PV作为传感器 in that it allows the PV to be acting as the sensor,
当PV不再吸收能量时 so that when the PV is no longer absorbing energy
它将信号传达给微控制器 then it informs the micro controller knows and
灯就亮了 因为我们不知道 therefore turns the lights on. Because we didn't know
我们会得到什么样的地点 what kind of site we were going to get
我们找铺设瓦管的方法 we looked at just some kind of way of tiling something
我们研究五角铺设系统 so we looked at a pentagonal tiling system
它似乎很难 which seemed very efficient
我们也研究了光照的角度 but then we looked at the kind of solar angles
就必须有一种偏倚 which then required a kind of bias
才能进行五角形的铺设 to the pentagonal tile.
你可以看到天空有一个 There you can see one up in the day
PV处于阴影中 can see the PVs sort of in shadow and
这是夜间的效果 then the effect at night and
它可以指示天气 it basically indexed the weather in that based on
取决于它晚上在什么地点 where it was on the site at night basically
当它们释放能量时就关闭 these turn off when they just loose their power.
依据它们吸引的光照量 So based on how much light they absorb
在白天吸收的 决定晚上持续照明时间 during the days, how long they can last at night.
这是有很多疑问的部分 This is one of the kind of questionable chapters
它在书中叫作"自然" in the book it is called Natures and
我们没有其他的想法 we really had no other ideas for
想不到如何处理这些项目 what to do with certain projects
于是把它们叫作"自然" so we called them Natures, and
你知道建筑的本质 you know architecture nature,
建筑会带来一种习惯 architecture produces a kind of habit,
展示一些行为 domesticating sort of behaviours
我们对其很感兴趣 that was something that we were kind of interested in
有许多项目 there're number of projects that
它们专门负责内部环境 dealt with domestic environments,
讲解传统的理解 dealt with conventional understandings
对于城市和自然环境的理解 of the urban and the natural.
这是一项合作项目 This one was a collaborative project
是花费一万美元完成的 that was done for $10,000
我们与其他十位建筑师合作 we worked with 10 other architects on this.
我们想一起在波士顿做点事儿 We wanted to do something together in Boston,
我们聚集 但没有达成共识 we got together and we couldn't agree on anything
最后我们做了这样的工程 so we finally, so we did something like this
我们对什么事情都不知道? What do we know nothing about?
我们想了解什么? and What do we want to know something about?
在欧洲就有这样的垂直花园 We had seen these vertical gardens in Europe
我们就努力想怎样做 and we thought lets find out how to do that.
我们就提出了这些想法 So we proposed this kind of idea we actually
我们尝试了鼠尾草 we tried Chia, which will grow anywhere
神奇的是它只持续了一周 which is amazing but it only lasts for about a week
我们也试验了 We also we were testing,
把这些剩余物放在毡上 we had all this left over felt
我们尝试种植 so we were testing growing
各种不同的草 在毡上种植 different varieties of grass in felt
用花肥等化学材料 with miracle grow and other things.
最后我们发现了景天属植物 And in the end we found this product called Sedum
可以用它做绿色屋顶 you can get it's for green roofs,
它很耐寒 而我们时间有限 its' fairly hardy and we ran out of time.
我们就选用了景天属植物 We used Sedum and
把它们钉在网格上 we stitched them to this mesh stuff and
把它们用不锈钢线吊起来 then we hung it up with these stainless steel cables.
这是很有趣的项目 专门设计的 It was a kind of fun project that was design build
我们发誓再也不做这样的项目 which we swore we would never do again,
但这也是一条便捷之道 but it was a way to do something quickly
能非常有效地尝试不同的东西 and effectively and try a few different things.
这种垂直花园的想法 So the idea of a vertical park,
在竖直方向铺陈风景 tipping the landscape upright,
这里没有脚印 somehow it has no footprint so
我们得到房主的同意 we got permission from the building owner
在他们的大楼上这样安装 to install this thing on their building,
他们很喜欢自由宣传这一想法 they loved the idea of free publicity.
这正是我们的兴趣所在 It was something that we were interested in
我们也想做一次试验 and we wanted to test.
它不是关于自然的论文 It's not a thesis about nature
而是布置不同寻常的自然 more of a deployment of an unusual nature.
这就是了 它只是暂时的 And there it was, it was only temporary, it was actually
为去年波士顿的AIA大会设计的 for the AIA convention in Boston last year,
它们在过去几个月还欣欣向荣 in the last few months it bloomed
当时天气严寒 which was kind of cool.
还有一种方法做这一项目 So that was a way to lead into this project
也就是室内环境 which is a domestic environment,
这是波士顿的高层建筑 在它的顶层 it's a loft building in Boston, it's on the top floor,
我们的想法是把天空带进阁楼 and the idea was to bring the sky into the loft
我们就在顶层开工 so we were on the top floor
我们也许可以拽下一角天空 maybe we could pull down a piece of the sky.
这是为一对夫妻设计的 This was something for a couple,
他们有孩子 他们想住在城市 they had kids, they wanted to live in the city,
想在城市里抚养孩子 they wanted to raise their kids in the city,
他们承受着巨大的压力 they had incredible pressure from their peers to
同龄人在郊区抚养孩子 about raising their kids in the suburbs
但他们来自纽约 but they were from New York and
他们愿意留在城市里 they were committed to the city.
他们请我们设计阁楼 So they asked us to design their loft,
你可以看到平面图 是对称的 and you can see the plan here , it was symmetrical,
他们将两间公寓合起来 there are two apartments that they put together
核心是在最中间 我们因此说 and the core is in the middle so we said
我们为何不添加一些天窗? why don't we add some of these light courts
我们就在这里凿了一个大洞 and so we carved a big hole in here and
隔出了100平方英尺 removed about 100 square feet
就打开了一扇天窗 and introduced a court yard and
这就是他们正方公寓的本来面貌 so this is their kind of cube of nature and
冬天的波士顿雨雪绵绵 in the winter in Boston it snows a lot,
这里总会下很多雪 you get a lot of snow in there.
他们没有庭院 So they don't have a yard,
他们没有郊区的那种庭院 they don't have a suburban yard
但它们这一方自然 but they do have this kind of cube of nature.
这是房子里的卧室 And that's their bedroom it has this
我们称它为"照明设备" we call it a light fixture
它其实是日光下的浴缸 but it's really a bathtub under a skylight,
改造了室内的水管 transforming a kind of domestic piece of plumbing
使它变成非常有空间效果的工具 into a kind of spatial effect machine.
这房子的有趣之处在于 I mean I think what's interesting about that house was
把自然天气带进三间房屋 introducing the weather into the kind of three volumes
同时也利用了日光 and also utilising the day lighting so
因为浴缸和莲蓬头 because of the bathtub and the shower
这些空间 those spaces are actually adjacent to
临近卧室和办公室 the bedroom and the office and
它们在中间地带沐浴着日光 so they receive a lot of natural light in the core
就像大多数城区建筑 since you know like most urban buildings
它们只在前后有窗户 they only have windows on the front and the backside
我要展示的下一个项目 The next project that I'm going to show
它也是利用了自然条件 also deals with kind of nature in a way in that
新贝德福德市有人联系我们 we were approached by the city of New Bedford
来装修一个社区船屋 to look at a community boat house
要吸引新贝德福德市民 in order to bring the public of New Bedford
使他们重新回到水边 back to its water front.
艾卡什纳河实际上 So the Acushnet River actually was
是美国最大的游乐场地 the largest super fun site in the United States
但由于河中的PCB污染 because of the PCB pollution in the river.
人们多年都在进行疏浚工作 They've been dredging it for many years and
它已停用几年 但是计划是 it's you know it's still a few years off but the plan is
让人们重新回到河边 to bring, to bring the city back to the river
并且设计一座社区河边小屋 and to plan for a community boat house.
这项目一开始是设计学术工作室 So this project was first taken on as an academic studio
后来变为建造办公室 then it became a office project and
最后又回归学术工作室 then it went back into the academic studio.
事情是这样的 But what happened was that
他们需要简易地点来储存船只 they just needed a simple structure to store boats,
同时也要建立一个公众平台 but also the idea of creating a kind of public terrace
或者可以居住的公共码头 or public dock to inhabit,
所有的风景都像是被剥离了 so the landscape basically essentially peels up
建造了巨大的屋顶 那你能看到 creating a giant roof so that you that can watch
他们走过去 下边是很简单直接的 races as they go by, below is very straight forward
有足够的空间留给船只 there's enough for the actual boats and
还有简单的社区空间 then a simple community space.
这项目是几年前的事了 And that project I think it's a couple years away
我们去年还做了些定价图纸 and we did the pricing drawings for that last year,
但我们和学生们都很不耐心 but I think the students and we also felt impatient like
他们必须筹钱 they are going to have to raise the money. It's
花费大概在三百万到五百万之间 going to cost between 3 million and 5 million dollars
但你们知道 etc etc but you know
人们现在可以利用河畔 people can actually use the river front now
我们能做什么?我们建议 so what can we do? So we proposed to the city that
在麻省理工有一个建筑设计工作室 through a design build workshop at MIT
它能建造一种浮游的地形 would actually create a kind of floating landscape
你仍然可以使船只下水 that you could still launch boats off and so the idea was
建造一种可以重组的浮游板 to create a kind of reconfigurable modular floating pod
它们可以排成直线 那样的话 that could stack linearly so that
你可以使长度适合的船只下水 you could launch a boat that was the appropriate length
但你也可以把它们聚集在更小的地方 but you could also cluster them to a smaller landscape
我从没有建造过浮游的物体 So I've never made anything that floated
这是我的第一次经历 so this was the first experience with that.
我们使用了铝制浮游码头 We used aluminium pontoons and
我们使用激光切割 we basically essentially laser cut the whole thing
从铝板中切割 将它们组装 out of aluminium, assembled it and
使它们在河上漂浮 floated them down the river so we thought
让它们漂浮是很有趣的 it would be really interesting to float them
从麻省理工一路浮到艾卡什纳 from MIT down to the Acushnet,
这要花费很长时间 which actually takes a long time.
最后我们没有这样做 In the end we didn't do that
我们必须把它们带到路上 we had to take them on the road
将它们放在附近的水中 and then dump them on the water nearby
再把它们带下去 and then bring them down.
你能看到这些板是可组装的 Here you can see how the pods can configure
这不是真正的地点 this is not the actual site in fact
它们是不可见的 they are kind of sightless
因为它们能到任何地方去 because they can go anywhere
但我们必须证明它是可行的 but we had to prove that it worked
证明它们可漂浮 也做了漂浮实验 and that they floated and did load tests
这是我们在码头的试验 and this is our testing in the marina
来证明它是可以漂浮的 to prove that it floats.
最后一部分叫作"版式" So the last section is called Formats and basically
它研究的是粗略定义的"版式" it looks at what were loosely called Formats
它们或关注包装工程 because they deal with either packing programme
是一种组织的难题 or kind of conundrums about organisation.
有一对夫妻委托我们 不是图中这一对 So we were contacted by a couple, not this couple,
但和他们很像 but like a couple,
比我父母年轻一点 they're a little younger than my parents and
他们有一儿一女 they have a son and a daughter and
女儿马上要结婚了 both the daughter's about to get married,
儿子已经结婚 他们告诉我们 the son's married, and they basically said to us that
"我们想建造这样一座房子 "we want to build a house that
可以吸引我们的子女回家 brings our children home. We want
我们希望子女回来同住" our children to come back and live with us."
我们说没问题 And we said ok.
这是在经济衰退之前 This was before the recession and
这是很有趣的 so we're like that's interesting,
这关乎文化 他们是韩国人 it's a cultural thing they're Korean and
好几代人生活在同一屋檐下 so you know multi generations under one roof is
这在他们生长的环境里并不少见 not unusual in the context in which they grew up.
但他们能够理解 but they could understand
子女们对隐私的需求 their children's need for privacy etc.
我们就提议 So what we proposed was basically
将这三间房子合为一间 因为这一地点 packing three houses in one. Because of the site,
它划分为单个家庭住宅 it's zoned for single family residential,
房子看起来就不像 so the house couldn't look like
三间房子合并成一间 three houses packed in one
但它看起来要像一个整体 but it needed to somewhat operated like one.
我们的最初的想法是建造 So the idea was essentially like to create these kind of
用珠子墙壁连起来的排房 row houses with sort of pearly walls.
但预算很紧张 There was a very tight budget so
我们需要最小的占地面积 we needed the minimum footprint and
最小面积 我们就关注 minimum volume and so what we looked at was
房屋中的车库 just the relationship of the garage and
看它与风景的关系 the relationship of the view and
在两者之间形成一种拓扑空间 just created a manifold between those two.
我们的想法是 有个车库 So the idea was that there's a garage
每个家庭成员都能停车 for each one of the family members,
儿子女儿和父母 so the son; the daughter; the parents.
你们可以从车库进来 You would actually come in through the garage
每个人都经过各自的走廓 and everyone would go through their own corridor
进入房子的公共区域 and then into the public spaces of the house
之后想睡觉的时候 and then later when you wanted to go to bed
每个人都有自己走动的方向 everyone would actually have a separate circulation
可以到达二层 up to the second floor.
永远不会是从这一点到这一点 So you could never go from here to here,
不会从哥哥的房间进入妹妹的房间 brother's room to sister's room,
你必须一路走下去 you would have to go all the way down
穿过安全系统 也许吧 pass the security system, I don't know.
这里也有很大的客厅 But there would be a bigger sitting room space
还有三间卧室 and then the three bedrooms.
我们认为这会非常有趣 What we thought it would be interesting
来建造这样一个区域 to create this zone so that if you had to,
你可以走过去敲玻璃窗 you could go out and knock on this glass window
它制造了一种紧张 so it creates this little bit of tension
但总的来说 它提供了足够隐私 but for the most part it creates enough privacy
这样就让他们能住在一起 that they could live together.
这个地方靠近小溪 外面的风景 Site and the section it's near a creek, an exterior view
那么 这个项目实际上 So that was, that project actually
我们刚完成了投票草图 we just finished the bid drawings and
得到了竞标价格 got the pricing back for
但已经不可行了 but it doesn't look anything like this anymore
因为那些子女们看见草图说 because the children saw it and said that
他们不想住在这房子里 they didn't want to live in it.
他们想生活在 They wanted to live in
四四方方的现代房屋里 a much more boxy modern house so and
也有一些有趣的东西 太劲爆了 that some interesting things in it too bust
我们就不多做展示 we're not going to show it.
研究的主题是"版式" This research theme is Format and
思考版式的一个方法是类型学 one way to think about format is typology,
如单个家庭房间或连排住宅 like the single family house, or the row house.
思考版式的另一个方法是 This another way to think about format and
这是我们在中国做的一个项目 this is a project that we are doing in China where
他们想要一些我们从没听过的东西 they asked for something we had never heard of
这里是高级综合娱乐设施 which was a kind of VIP entertainment complex
或者类似的地方 or something and essentially
它是两万平方英尺的别墅 it is a 20,000 square foot villa for
有人在这里款待宾客 somebody to entertain their guests,
在这里做生意 和家人一起生活 to have their business in and to live with their family
他们的要求是必须有庭院 The rules was that it must contain courtyards
客户要求必须有倾斜的房顶 and it must have a sloped roof by the client,
客户说它必须模仿 so the client said that it must
传统的庭院房屋 reference traditional courtyard houses,
我们想到了MBA建筑 and we thought cool a MAB building.
我们想到可以改变这种类型 So we thought that we could turn that typology
使它变得有趣 就像一项研究 into something interesting as a piece of research.
我们去参观了传统的庭院 We looked at traditional court yards and
我们看了它们这些年的变迁 we looked at the way that they grew over time,
它们是如何组合在一起的 the way that they packed together,
它们怎样向内聚合 朝向天空 the way that they focused inward and up at the sky.
我们认为这是非常有趣的 We thought that this was an interesting type
如果着手做这个项目的话 to try to work with.
我们建议 We proposed something that
它像一种充满细胞的结构 was kind of cellular packed structure,
所有的房顶的都是倾斜的 但在顶部 where all these rooves are sloped but the top of
整体的顶部是水平面 the whole thing is this kind of horizontal plane
我们修建了一种平顶 so we produce a kind of flat top but locally
有一些圆锥体或者倒金字塔结构 there are these sort of cone or inverted pyramids
它像是倾斜的庭院屋顶 that reference a sloped courtyard roof.
这就是我们的提议 And this is what we proposed,
这是生活区域 there's a zone that's for living with
一些大老板和他的父母住一起 the kind of big boss man with his family,
还有娱乐区 and then there's entertainment zone,
这里是办公区 and then there's the office area sort of
它们环绕着不同的庭院 focused around the these different courtyards.
这是一项很大的挑战 So this was a real challenge
在一种建筑传统中工作 to kind of work with within a building tradition which
它承认并且坚持形式可清晰可辨 recognises and insists on a legibility of form and type
这是中国的四合院 which is the Chinese courtyard house,
但我们试着把它升级 but trying to update it and
使它的几何形状更有意思 trying to make it interesting geometrically, formally,
使当代观众更喜欢这种形态 typologically for a more contemporary audience.
这还在继续向前 我们真正的 So this is going forward and we are actually
开始画草图 working on the drawings for this right now.
还有另外一种版本 Here's another version of it
顶部倾斜 有两个切口 where the top is started to pitch so there's two cuts,
一个从这边倾斜 一个从那边 one sloping this way and one sloping that way,
我们失去了平顶 so we lost the flat top but locally
所有的顶都像中间倾斜 all the rooves are still pitching towards the centres.
我们必须做这些内部来展现材料 We had to do these interiors to show the materials
我们发现的一件事情是 and actually one of the things that we found
去那儿非常有趣 very interesting was going there and
还能看一些类似的传统建筑 looking at the building traditions like these.
我们有一种兴趣 And there is I think a kind of interest a kind of
当代对图案和装饰的兴趣 contemporary interest in pattern and ornament
有一种想法重新出现 there's a kind of resurgence of an idea
关于复杂性 所有这些事情 about complexity and all these things
你都会在传统类型中找到 that you find within traditional types.
你若去研究中国的屏风传统 If you look at Chinese screen traditions
它们的几何形状非常复杂 there's a incredible complexity to their geometries
相互交叉 有人问我们 as they intersect. And so we were asked actually
要研究这些东西并且重新解读 to look at these things and reinterpret them.
我们仔细研究了三个 So we looked at three particular ones,
这是用于建筑物的 this was for the building
同时也用于上海的展出 but also for an exhibition in Shanghai.
一个是这种样式 也许我们能够 So one, here's the type, maybe we could
把它变为一种倾斜的不透明板 transform it into a gradient sort of opaque panels
或者是消溶的面板 and sort of dissolving panels that would sort of
它们堆叠在一起 stack on top of each other,
另一个是重复的垂直面 another one might take a kind of repetitive vertical
这个在房梁上很常见 something that you might find in a rafter condition
通过移动枢轴点使它变形 and transform it through shifting pivot points
或者在内部变化 or variables within in it.
第三个是利用这些神奇的 And the third was taking these incredible sort of
重叠的几何图形 geometrical sort of overlaps and
使它们变成嵌套的样式 specialising them into these nested figures
必须建造这些东西 and these were all things that would have to be built
只能在中国 没有C&C Millls in China without C&C Millls.
但得花费很大工夫 But with a lot of labour.
这是我们要展示的最后一个项目 So this is the last project we're going to show
它也是发表了的项目 and it's also a publication project
我们也许两个一起讲 and maybe we can just do this one together,
在一次顾问委员会上有人问我们 so we were asked to be on an advisory council
这是两年之前 要求我们研究三块土地 two years ago to study a three parcels
他们的包裹沿着大隧道 along The Big Dig their parcels
像是1920年或者1922年时的 like 1920 and 22 or something.
我想说一样 我们住在波士顿 Can I just say we live in Boston and in Boston
这里有令人惊叹的高速路 there was this incredible highway
贯通整座城市 that sort of carved through the city,
它被称作绿巨人 it was called The Green Monster and
那是六十年代的事情 it was put in the 60s and
它摧毁了城市中一长块地带 it destroyed a huge swath of the city and
使城市分为两块 这是一种 it kind of cut the city in two. It is a kind of
美国故事 六十年代的美国城市 American story an American city of the 1960s
它们被高速公路分割开 being cleft by the highway.
你也许听说了他们花费130亿美元 And you may have heard they spent 13 billion dollars
用以将它拆毁埋葬 to take it down and bury it
他们将其称为大隧道 and they call it The Big Dig.
这是最大的基础设施项目 So it's the largest sort of infrastructure project
是美国历史上最大的 in US history, it sort of happened
这就在我们窗外发生 just outside our windows, and
透过窗户就能看到城市的变迁 looking out the window at transformation of the city
立誓要重新连接公共领域 and the promise of a reconnected public realm
这也是此项工程的动力 was the impetus for the project.
很好 我本来打算待会说的 That's good! I was going to say that on the next slide
现在有人请求我们研究这些土地 But so we asked to look at three of these parcels
我们的方法是 and the way it worked was they,
这些成千上万的工程师 these were thousands of engineers etc
计划要协调整个大隧道 to plan and coordinate the whole Big Dig
很显然有一个人 and there was one person apparently
只有一个人负责表面 only one in charge the of the surface
在整个过程当中 during that whole time period.
在大隧道即将竣工时 As the big dig was nearing completion
他们雇佣了不同的景观设计师 they hired different landscapes architects deal with it
只请他们来处理表面条件 purely as a surface condition.
作为顾问委员会成员 有人问我们 And we were asked as the advisory council
提供一些室内项目的建议 to propose some interim programming
为这三块土地 for three of the parcels and
我们就开始冥思苦想 it just got us thinking so much about this project
以及各种前所未有的可能性 and all the potentials that will never happen
因为这一分离 because of this separation between
基础设施或者交通工程师 the infrastructural or the traffic engineers,
设施与景观建筑师之间的分离 versus the landscape architects, versus the architects
我们推荐了这本书 So we proposed this book called
名为 大隧道的非招标项目 unsolicited projects for the big dig and
我们开始时的拨款特别少 we got a small gram grant to start it.
我们所做的就是开始 And what we did was we just began by
了解我们的城市 learning about our own city and
波士顿就像所有的垃圾填埋池 Boston is pretty much all landfill.
你可以看到1722年的波士顿 So you can see the 1722 contents of Boston and how
它随着时日推移也在扩大 Boston has just kind of grown and expanded over time
这些图像 And then these are kind of images,
左边是绿巨人 the left is actually of the Green Monster
它穿过了波士顿 when it cut through Boston,
右边是大隧道 the right is of The Big Dig or
这些都会发生 what essentially needs to happen in terms of
它会改变交通航道 rerouting all the traffic so that
那样它就可以在城市之下穿行 it can then go under the city.
这里是绿色大道的图片 So here's an image of The Greenway,
这是从下边穿过去的隧道 so that's the tunnel that goes underneath
与是就出现了美丽的绿色风景 these nice green landscapes that have appeared.
很漂亮 我们很喜欢 And they are fine we like them,
仿佛有一些机会 it seems like there's some opportunities that
这些机会还是值得考虑的 we thought were worth speculating on.
其中一件事情是 So one of the things that basically
尽管它在地理上连接起来 even though it connects and graphically
这样绘图使它连接所有横向公路 they draw it so that it connects all across and
建造了这一巨大的线形体育场 creates this great linear park
但有太多种干扰 but there's so many interruptions that
没有人可以绕着公园跑步 nobody actually jogs along this park etc.
另一件有趣的事情是 The other thing is that's interesting is
他们挖隧道的时候 when they dug the tunnel they had to
必须使高速公路继续工作 keep the elevated highway operating the whole time
因此他们是在下面挖掘 so basically they are digging under
而上面的公路还在运行 an operational highway so
他们必须建造巨大的泥浆墙 they had to create these giant slurry walls that
负载起上面的高速公路的重量 actually could carry the load of the elevated above.
大隧道的组织过于复杂 So the big dig is over-structured
因为它要负载上面的高速路 because it can carry an elevated highway
但现在却不需要了 有趣的是 that it no longer has to carry.it seems interesting
挖掘的最深点是在城市以下155英尺处 It carves 155 feet below the city at its deepest point.
同时也挖出了大量的土 It also like of course removed a lot of earth
很多都被运往奇观岛 and a lot of it went to Spectacle Island.
你能看到奇观岛 So you can see the Spectacle Island
它位于海湾地区 which is in the harbour and
这是人们倾倒泥土最近的地点 it was the nearest place that they could dump the soil
你会发现随着时间推移 So you can see how over time also
奇观岛也改变很多 Spectacle Island has changed and
这是在大隧道之前 这是在之后 here's the section pre Dig and post Big Dig.
我们看到了波士顿的景观 And we looked at how like landscapes in Boston had
传统上有基础设施或生态规则 traditionally had infrastructure or ecological rules
本来作为污水下水道系统 essentially like acting as a sewage system
可以允许牧羊 or for allowing sheep to graze etc.
我们更具体地研究了 And then we looked at more specifically
坚硬地方和柔软地方的大隧道 at the Big Dig at the hard-scape, soft-scape etc.
我们提出的一点建议是 And one of things that we proposed was....
抱歉 我想说 No I just wanted to say something.
绿色大道出现的时间是 The Greenway kind of emerges at a time
当时我们正在重新考虑"绿色"这一概念 where we were reconsidering the notion of green,
你可以在其他地方找到原始地点 the idea that you could find a pristine site anywhere
在其上建筑像是旧日往事 to build on seems to be a thing of the past,
这些地点已经有了一些用途 sites now seem already occupied by some use.
我们就像关注一些城市中的地点 And so the idea of looking at urban sites
不再古时的 而是关注一些 not as in anyway pristine but looking at sort of kind of
它们都已处于修复阶段 always already in a process of remediation
我们发现这是非常普遍的 was a condition that we found prevalent.
也有一种概念 And so there's notions of,
如何利用这样一块土地? How do you reoccupy a site like that?
希望这里既是运动场 and the desires of a site to be both playing field,
又是高速公路 同时也是公园 a kind of highway and a kind of park simultaneously
它带来了一些冒险的项目 led to a kind of speculative project
它可能重新配置这些条件 that might playfully reconfigure that condition.
这些项目都我们自动发起的 So these projects were unsolicited and probably
我们研究一种三块镶嵌面板系统 unbuildable we looked at a tri panel system
它可以转换 that could kind of switch and sort of
既可以作为硬的土地 play different roles both hard-scapes,
也可以变为柔软的土地 soft-scapes and something else.
我们也研究了一些碎片 We also looked at some of the kind of debris,
公园体系和隧道体系 the park system , the tunnel system
作为城市中的一种基础设施 as a kind of infrastructure in the city. We kind of
我们限制了城市中的基础设施 repressed the kind of infrastructure in the city
它也从通风井中喷出 but it kind of erupts in these ventilation shafts
上面装点着建筑图案 that are decorated with architectural motifs
由篱笆墙围护起来 and protected with jersey barriers and somehow
它像是在乞求 that seemed like it was begging for some sort of
一些建筑上的改变 architectural or some sort of transformation.
神奇的是这些废气塔 The amazing thing about these exhaust towers is
尤其是那些比较小的 that essentially one of the smaller ones, there's one
它被国际酒店包围起来 that's actually encased in the Intercontinental Hotel.
因此 国际酒店看起来就像是 So the Intercontinental Hotel looks like
它有两座玻璃塔 其中一座 it has two glass towers one of those towers is
是大隧道的通风排气口 actually a ventilation exhaust shaft for the Big Dig
所有的东西都被隐藏起来 Everything is being hidden and
我们认为 我们相信 we thought you know we understand the need to
需要解决隧道的一些机械问题 actually deal with the mechanical issues of the tunnels
为何不想办法利用或治理它呢 so why not utilise that or harness that in some way.
我们建议 也许可以把它当作能源 So we proposed that maybe we could use it for energy
还可能有闲逛的电动车辆 and there could be these Paseo electric things
它们通过微震动 that through their micro-vibrations
在空气向上运动时就能收集能量 would collect energy as the air flow moved up
空气也会通过废气杆 and through the shaft.
此外 我们还编了索引目录 The other thing is that we indexed all
收录了大隧道中用到的一切技术 the technology involved in the Big Dig,
这是非常神奇的 which is pretty amazing.
他们安装了这种环形探测器 So they put in these loop detectors so that
当汽车经过时可检测速度 as a car drives by it can track your speed of course,
下面也有大量的监控设备 there's a tonne of surveillance equipment underneath
但景观部分是极好的 But the landscape part is totally benign,
是非常好的 我们认为 banal and benign . And so we thought that
我们希望慢跑者有的是 you know what we need for the joggers .
慢跑者可以轻松通过 we need like the joggers easy pass where
他们可以在跑步鞋上贴个射频识别标签 they can put an RF ID tag on their running shoes
当他们跑步时就能 and as they run they will change all the
把所有的停步标志变为通过标志 don't walk signs to walk signs so
汽车很少在绿色大道上通过 the cars have a reverse experience of the Greenway
它就成为更有优势的地点 and the Greenway becomes more of a privilege
更有利于步行者 to the pedestrian.
射频识别标签还有个理念是 And then also tied into the idea of RFID tags
鞋子上也反应出移动的树 on the shoes there would also be these moving trees
它可以确保 which would also make sure that
你没有真正的看见车辆 you never actually see the cars
因为你慢跑时 树木会一起移动 because as you jog the trees would move with you.
这里还有一些有用的细节 There are some details to work out here.
我们关注的另一件事是家具 The other thing we looked at was the furniture.
书中几乎编录了所有的事情 The book basically catalogues everything
我们处理公共空间的各种方法 that we think deals with public space.
沿着绿色大道有一些座椅 These are all the benches that area long the Greenway
也有一些设计座椅的人 and also who designed these benches.
但我们认为这是一个问题 But we said like this is kind of a problem that
因为所有座椅看起来都是这样 all these benches look this way.
若是还有其他方法 What if there were other kinds of ways of
在绿色空间中居住 暂坐或者休闲 inhabiting or sitting or lounging in the green space
在巨大的公共多人跷跷板上玩 from giant public multi person seesaws?
同时也处理肥皂盒问题 But also dealing with the issue of the soap box
这些东西也许能建造阶梯 and maybe these things could create stages
或者翻过来变成椅子 and flip over to create chairs etc
它们以不同方式占据公共空间 to occupy the public space in a different way.
这就是最后一个项目 Ok so that's the last project and I think
想一下我们现在的实践 just thinking about practice today.
如何使用 或者定位自己 How to use sort of, position yourself,
如何使用建筑?景观?艺术? vis-à-vis architecture; landscape; art?
我们展示的最后一个项目是 The last project we showed is
它也是自主发起的项目 a kind of speculative project.
没有客户 没有委托我们 There's no client, nobody called us and said,
说"你可不可以做这个项目" Could you do this? It was something that
它来自于我们的好奇和不满足 emerged out of a curiosity and a kind of dissatisfaction
不满足于建筑环境 with the built environment and
我们投入这项研究工程 we sort of launched into this research project
这是非常有趣的 which was kind of fun and
由专门拨款来提供资金 was funded by some grant money.
我认为重要的是得指出 I think the thing that it is important to point out about
很多工作都是我们自主发起的 some of this work is that a lot of it is self motivated
有时你知道有一些令人好奇的技术 Sometimes you know there's a curious technology
但我们对它们知之甚少 that we don't know too much about
但我们却想搞清楚是怎么回事 but we want to sort of figure it out
我们就开始了这些项目 so we will embark on these projects.
我说过我们是建筑师 I said that we were architects
但我们却也总是 but we sort of emphatically cross
尽可能地跨越多种学科领域 disciplinary boundaries whenever possible.
我认为在图书设计或者景观中 And I think in a book design or landscape
我们都发挥着不同作用 we played different roles.
我在这里说的这些话 I think the thing to say particularly in this place
它像是一种纪律 the kind of discipline is something could be
它可能受到诸多挑战或扩展进步 productively challenged or expanded or evolved.
