New Performative & Responsive Landscapes
The Agro-Llobregat is the question.
A WORKSHOT more than a WORKSHOP
The Blitz-Workshop conducted by Manuel Gausa, Co-founder of the IAAC and aimed at MACT students wants to be an inductor and catalyst of ideas and/or concepts that can serve to launch future and more developed propositions for the Installation and prototypes “Llobregat ReCitying” that must be realized in the next course by the direction of Alejandro Haieck, a prestigious architect and Land-artist.
In this sense we could talk about a WORKSHOT more than a WORKSHOP.
A workshot where the challenge is to shoot, in effect, different brain-stormed proposals in quick and expressive formats.
A Workshot is a quick percussive format that wants to contribute to “select” and “manipulate” key elements and potentials that are in the working context.
Conceptual framework
If we understand the new logics –associated to a new Advanced Urbanism– in relation with the challenges of a new informational era –and the capacity,
in this one, to multiply the interactions between conditions and information(s)– we need to understand in what terms we define “information”, not only as a data-parameter or a data-indicator but as a more enlarge concept associated to other assimilated key-terms (programs, solicitations, patterns, matters, behaviours, networks, holistic and metabolic contexts) able to be combined in (and through) new –and more– open strategic approaches. This MACT-TAK-Blitz-WORSHOT (MACT-Transversal Advanced Knowledge, Blitz Workshot) wants to aid the students to work with strategic concepts and quick expressions (3d collages, manipulated recycled materials or folded cards, acc, able to synthesize latent capacities and immanent potentials in the territory.
At course completion the student will:
SITE SELECTION FACTORS The site selected for the Recitying project is located in Parc Agrari del Baix Llobregat, a park just outside of Barcelona. This landscape initiative aims to transform abandoned crop fields into a significant and meaningful labyrinth park through the development of land art. The concept of land art is employed not only … Read more
Metagrid represents a new way to explore urbanism, tailored for the context and its stakeholders. This project redefines ‘Agriculture’ to encompass not only the process of production but also broader elements like programs, solicitations, patterns, matters, behaviors, and networks, enabling innovative, open strategic approaches. Metagrid aims to reactivate Parc Agrari in Llobregat through Land Art, … Read more
