Prereq: interest in reponsive social and spatial experience
Open, transparent, and readily visible, the architecture of the Media Lab becomes a spatial interface for locating research groups and individuals that occupy the building. Connective by nature, the offset strata, vast sight lines, and open aural expanse presents visitors with an immediate sense of being on the inside of a dynamic space and creative culture. Shifting perspective to consider the life of the resident community inhabiting this space reveals an emphasis on the public experience, with an absence of participatory spatial modes of modulating visibility, voice, and presence. Ambient Sites, Ephemeral Veils, and Inside Spaces explores a series of propositions for in-situ transformations that re-shape interstitial common space in the Media Lab with temporary, reconfigurable, or mobile places for contemplation, quiet conversation, and small scale convergence.
