Project 4 part II: FINAL PRESENTATION

Figure 2: source unknown

A few inspirations to get you through the home stretch: www.generativelandscapes.wordpress.com www.wewanttolearn.wordpress.com Deliverables for the final presentation are covered below. Final-final submittals for the studio (due on Friday 6/5):

• Revised PDF of your final presentation boards (20mb max) via blackboard

• Your grasshopper .gh script file via blackboard • 11x17 or 2@8 ½ x 11 portfolio spread for the entire

studio (20mb max) via blackboard, details below

All of the above items are required to get a grade for the studio – if you are missing any of these, you will get an incomplete. Reminder that by 6/10 via aqueductfutures.wordpress.com you are expected to provide 5 blog posts.

PRESENTATION \\ 8am – 12pm Monday 6/1 • Print 2@ 24 x36 boards – please be pinned up by 8am • Each team gets 12 minutes for their verbal narrative and discussion

Organize the boards per your narrative sequence. Juxtapose and overlap to enhance your narrative. Consider using a limited color palette with 3 or 4 colors for the entire boards.

A\\ Project Title Be poetic and catchy.

B\\ Project Statement Short narrative 100-150 words suggested.

C\\ Captions & Annotations Provide captions and text annotations to support your project.

D\\ OL Master Plan [Strategic Plan] Show the entire lake with notation indicating use\function\performance criteria\vector fields & gradients + expression of the project at this scale.

E\\ OL Site [Plan\Axonometric\Birdseye] Choose the best scale and projection to understand your dust control terrain. Drawing should include 2 to 10 square miles of the lake. Make sure to include a visual scale.

F\\ Eidetic Photomontage Show the entire lake with notation indicating use\function\performance criteria\vector fields & gradients.

G\\ Site Section [cross section shore to middle of lake] Show the entire lake with notation indicating use\function\performance criteria\vector fields & gradients.

H\\ Procedural Diagrams These include your:

• Machine choreography • Site gradients/fields index drawings • Parametric processes: create a simplified flow

chart/diagram [do not use screenshots of your Grasshopper scripts]

Consider overlaying these on the plans and section

I\\ Process Drawings Include drawings from the development of your project. These can be scanned (and cleaned up), or exported views from early versions of your grasshopper script. You may also provide a few inspirational images/references (must credit the sources). Figure 5: IBM flowchart template,

J\\ Large Aerial Map Overlay Print a plan representation of your project that is mounted on the large Owens Lake print. Make it easy to mount/remove so you don’t interfere with other teams and avoid damaging the prints.

\\Optional Graphics\\ Please include additional drawings to support your narrative. These can include additional sections, axonometric views/perspectives, typologies, phasing diagrams, diagrams of cut-and-fill calculations, and more. Perspective views of your project from 395 and other vantage points are encouraged to support a discussion of visual impacts.

Portfolio Spread\\ by end of Friday 6/5 Create a portfolio spread for the studio including elements from projects. Assume that your portfolio will be seen without you being present to explain the project. So provide a very concise synopsis that establishes the scope/context of the studio, your process (mention if you worked solo or in a team), and project description. Curate the images/drawings to balance the representation of your creative process with illustrations of your projects. Via blackboard: 11x17 or 2@ 8½ x 11) PDF (20mb max).

MANIFESTO

From a pre indust r ia l h is tory, to the post - indust r ia l rea l i ty, Phi ladelphia is current ly charged with the reclamat ion of the Delaware River 's shore. On a dir t road leading to the water, beyond a rusty fence; where mountains of coal were once stood; a successional grove of t rees emerges. Offer ing shade in the heat of the summer, a respi te f rom the wind of the autumn and winter - people start to gather on the arboreal is land.

Perhaps to c l imb a t ree, relax against a t runk, l is ten to a bi rd song, p icnic in the dappled l ight or make love in the moonl ight , Br idesburg gathers.

The damaged hard soi l ( the byproduct of years of the pi led coal) s lowly becomes welcoming to a new diversi ty beyond the oppor tun is t ic p ioneers . Nursery mounds o f new so i l expand wi th leaf l i t te r f rom the p lanted t rees, the i r roots breaking up and aerat ing the dense f i l l , enabl ing a return to a normal pH and with microbial act ion to metabol ize the remaining toxic chemicals.

There is a under laying grain to the s i te, f rom the layers of sed imenta t ion , f i l l and debr is , f loods and g lac ie rs . For v is i tors, the glade offers mult ip le levels of exper iences, al l f raming the integral textures of the region - f rom the r iver to the c i ty.

Project Rubric 40 points total Strong projects have these attributes:

• Development of a well-researched and technologically viable dust control method(s). • Applying a sophisticated multifunctional strategy for the site that addresses ecology,

culture, water conservation and public health. • Strong graphic representation of your concepts and design schemes that have a unified

style/graphic language • Having a well crafted verbal narrative supported by the printed materials • Following a rigorous design process that explores multiple iterations and synthesis of

your concepts in the final project • Ongoing altruism and collaboration with your classmates.

Board Layout & Verbal Narrative Rubric\\ 10 points

• Does the layout enhance the project narrative? • Is there a clear visual hierarchy that supports the

narrative? • Are there sufficient captions, annotations, and other

text to enhance and clarify the project? • Are there any spelling or grammatical errors? • Is punctuation and capitalization consistent? • Are text elements legible, and have a logical

hierarchy? • Are graphic keys/scales included? • Are citations provided for data and ‘quoted’ graphic

elements? • Does the graphic style of the drawings enhance

understanding of the project? • Is your verbal narrative well organized and concise? • Does the narrative support understanding your

project? • Did you practice your delivery? • Are you professionally dressed?

Process & Development Rubric\\ 10 points

• Strength of initial concept? • Did the initial concept evolve and strengthen as the project progressed? • Was analysis integrated into the final project? • Did you make any initiatives that exceeded the minimum requirements for the process? • Did you take risks with the design process or did you play it safe?

Design Rubric\\ 20 points

• Quality and sophistication of design strategies. • Are existing DCM infrastructural elements integrated into the project or ignored? • Is cut and fill balanced? • Does the circulation system work? • Are the proposed DCMs graded for water to flow? • How well is water (conservation) integrated into the design? • Are project and site elements drawn to scale (roads, paths, turnouts, tillage, etc)? • How are cultural uses of the lake addressed? • Does your project enhance views onto the lake from 395 and other vantage points?

Portfolio spread will be graded pass/fail.
