Inter 3 Stat graph... geeky!

Found this website http://www.aharef.info/static/htmlgraph/ the other day. Basically you enter the website, and what it did here was a representation of the aainter3 blog in this rather beautiful graph...

inter3branch.jpg

What do the colours mean?
blue: for links (the A tag)
red: for tables (TABLE, TR and TD tags)
green: for the DIV tag
violet: for images (the IMG tag)
yellow: for forms (FORM, INPUT, TEXTAREA, SELECT and OPTION tags)
orange: for linebreaks and blockquotes (BR, P, and BLOCKQUOTE tags)
black: the HTML tag, the root node
grey: all other tags

Cool innit?

Inter 3 City Background

27june1.jpg
I finished preparing laser cut file for background. (mountain scape with hollywood sign like inter 3)
27june2.jpg

I tried to fit all the names in visible area inbetween our models.
Red line indicate roads on hill which contiue from city grid.(points indicated connection points between background and city grid.)

Names of individuals and roads will be engraved and all the rest will be cut.

I was gonna use 12 mm mdf but I might change it to thinner one because it would make cut faster.

I worked out material for whole construction today.

2X2 frame still seems a lot so I will go to workshop in monday morning to ask Tris where we don't need support.

Here is list of material we need with quantity.

MDF 15mm X 8 sheets(2440X1220)
*I may replace wall part of sectional profile of this material with 2X2 and just keep curvy
part same

MDF 3mmX4 sheets

PLYWOOD 3mm X 4 sheets

Here are the screen shots of the site model from today's tutorial.
All the dimensions are fixed and some missing models are added.
This weekend, Naoki and I will meet at school tomorrow to discuss more about the details etc, and I will send e-mail to all the 2nd years about what to do for the next few days :)
Have a good weekend

DAY3: Still working on the site + helping the 3rd years

DSCF3330.jpg

DSCF3332.jpg

DSCF3334.jpg

So we were still working on the site model... sadly,,, urban design was not my thing (sayaka).
Katerina was helping Kevin's site model for RIBA,
Eyal was working on the freeway,
and Naoki and Sayaka were working on the site model (grid, base etc...)
With Monia's help, finally, we got overall ideas for our site.

NOTE: all of us have to send rendering images to Katerina (good ones and the best ones) by Tuesday (a day after the 3rd year table)! We have to make A2 posters for RIBA and our exhibition

DAY2: Finalizing the layout of our city

DSCF3299.jpg

DSCF3308.jpg

So... this is some photos from DAY2.
We worked on finalizing the layout of the city as it is posted on the previous one.
Through brain storming and several sketches, we managed to have the base of the layout of all the models and the form of the city.
Eyal finished working on the CNC file for Gehry building.
Naoki did detailed sketches etc...
Katerina and I were working on the Rhino file for the site.
We will show the layout of the models and ideas we got (also some questions came up during our discussion).

Final Layout of Inter 3 City So Far

21june01.jpg
21june02.jpg

We almost filled most of space available in our city with only our models.
We designed outline of base according to gradual change of scale (thus change of road width)
We have 2 main roads goes parallel (yet curvy) to wall and other road cross perpendicular to those 2.

So how we gonna label street (perpendicular to wall) is street 1/1000, street 1/500 ... like 1st street, 2nd street in actual map.

exhibition space

exhibition-space.jpg

Very rough dwg of our exhibition space (windows are not in scale).
so our usable space is apx. 3m x 4.1m..

All the Models

20june_01.jpg
We have 58 models to place in Inter 3 city model.
We just started to arrange model of same scale in one row and try to see how many model we have for each scale.

1:300-500 will be hot spot where all the great model will be situated! !!

In some scale we have much more than other so we might make close scale in same row to see balance.

DAY1: 2nd years working

DSCF3294.jpg

DSCF3296.jpg

DSCF3297.jpg
Discussing about layout of the city etc...

Things to do...
1: Build the base of the site inc. buildings etc..
2: Street signs +streets
3: Cars
4: Book for the unit (B5)
5: Prepare the posters - one rendering from each student will be printed out and mounted on A2 boards. For RIBA and our exhibition

Today, we have done:
-measure all the dimension of the models we are going to put on the site
-calculating the dimension of the street from 1:1000 to 1:10
-discussing / sketching about how we actually gonna make the site and put models together (slope, flat, stair-like etc??)
-started working on the street signs

Tomorrow, we will finalize the layout of the models, materials etc..
Details will be posted on the blog later.
Also, for scheduling and giving tasks to each person, I am thinking of working on online calender so we can all see what to do for the exhibition. What do u think?
