Task 1. Complete the cad drawing: partial plan and elevation of the site photo-documented
First find your site in the cad drawing and print it in 1:20 scale.
Then use it as a base for your hand drawing: you need to add more details of which site you identified - materials, surface articulations, traces of uses, weathering, .... Do the cad drawing for this task if you know or can work out using the cad platform - recommended as you will be cadding later to make a model anyway.
Bring your laptop next week, Tea or I can help you learn cad basics.
Task 2+3. Complete the hand drawing on the site drawing (task 1): sensorial experience with your body actions - plan and elevation
Then map your sensorial experience on top of the drawing - if you're not sure, you can first complete the site plan (cad base + hand drawing) and use a tracing paper to map your experience - wind flows, gradual pattern of light and shadow, the distribution of particles that provokes specific smells, a sounscape - wave pattern etc.
Locate your body and identify your action in relation to the sensorial experience.
Task 4. Merge all into one drawing – Composite plan and elevation
Composite plan / elevation (1:20), bring a photocopy of your composite plan reduced at 1:500 together.
You can try the sensorial drawing a few times using tracing papers until you find it satisfactory. Then scan both, combine them to make a 'composite drawing'.
Or if you're confident, you can map the experience in the site drawing directly.
Do the same process to produce a composite elevation.
Task 5.Sketches of your prosthetic device
Identify where your body is extended to use the site better and blurb more effectively
Outcome: Crop the merged drawing to have a part of the site, of the experience and of the body and manipulate the boundary between those to extend body and create a prosthetic device.
Task 1-4 are all related and make two 'composite drawings' - plan and elevation.
Task 5 is a sketch of your prosthetic device using the composite drawing as a base.
