Abstract:
Architecture is explored here as
a series of effects that influence the
experience of living on earth. A work
of architecture is a kind of terminal of
effects that produces certain experiences
for those who encounter it.
How a place is programmed and
built brings various movements into
play: human, animal, plant, geological,
metereological, hydrological and so on.
The site of exploration is the Walker
Spruit valley in the City of Tshwane.
The site of intervention is a vacant
piece of land bordering the Walker
Spruit in Sunnyside and is explored
as a place where these various movements
intersect to put humans in various
relations with each other and their
surroundings.
