Visualization IV: Processing and Presentation

This course synthesizes “representation” with “presentation” by exploring how dynamic processes—both analytical and communicative—shape the design of architecture. Students engage a wide variety of media, analyzing and representing a space or sequence of spaces through freehand drawing and re-presenting those drawings through digital techniques. Computer animation, parametric drawing, and interactive graphics are used to explore authorship and observation. The course integrates the content of the preceding visualization sequence courses while allowing students to expand their representational repertoires and develop individual expressive approaches. This course is taught from May 10 until June 25.

Required in M.Arch. I first year, early summer.
