TOPOLOGY: GEOMETRY AND PROCESS AS LOGIC (Topology Applications)

For instance it can be thought that Topology is only about objects and geometry concepts (being rather the opposite, Geometry is about some kind of topological objects). Side less in many cases its impossible to give an idea of how to manage the interpretation of the Topology problems, or even some concepts. The Topology also feed large concepts where inspiration comes from the inside of Mathematic Analysis. This means almost every concepts and ideas of this area are Topological concepts and ideas; and its here where the Topology ceases to be a simple Mathematical game, to become on the applicable logic system that can be conceptualized in the Tectonic analysis, evolution, animation, interconnectivity, relation, etc. The knowledge Topology deletes any idea about static, or in best of the case, can be turn from any static system to a dynamic system.

The Topology can have an endless number of applications that introduce the possibility to develop tools and also process of analysis in change of a constant evolution; due to the ability of limitation and the flexibly, in which the objects have to explore; with the capacity to have an unrecognizable genetic on a simple view; because the process of change is that they are constantly subjected without losing its parameters.

1.1 Tectonic Applications. In a more dramatic sense of the word, it could be call the Topology of the Mutations; because it can be explored in this way the morphology possibilities of the tectonic and their dynamic applications; as well in the mechanic and elasticity that can produce animated transformations and their possible constants of variables. “The Shape without Shape”, it is a concept that is not focus in the ends of the result, and also as research of the process like a manual in where its explained the entities to discuss, if not to the constant used for these to be applied. The Topology applied in the tectonic can be focus to explore Topology Spaces that can produce changes on a morphologic in the structure; but also in the same time can not lose their character by the limit concept that handles the Topology, ready to adapt in real time, animated, as device open to tectonic loops loaded to space and time.

1.2 Prototyping Applications (Evolutions and Animations). The conjunct and the sub conjunct are a collateral effect that produces the condition of continuity and limit: both conditions are developed at the full time line in transformation and variations constants, that if frozen on fragment of the continuity in the limit, it can be to access an entity library that is interconnected with loops of time and space.

The Topology can be an application for prototyping in two ways: one can be thinking in the parameterization of the Topology and their family as an entities conceptualizing from the individuality of pieces. This concept were used for other Proto-geometric like the Fractals, but the Topology have the independence on a particular understanding the concept of limit, but not as an end, if not to the idea to bring the Mutation and the evolution transition in the ends of the object without lose it established Mathematic conditions; not like the beginning of the shape, thinking it more as like a rule. Taking it to determine the end of the beginning, like a loop, as these have not vector conditions, they have more kinetic condition. The second can be to develop entities with a mayor level of complexity; where can it be focus animation entity. This is a type of Parametrización itself, where the only constants are the Topology condition that is part of itself. Animated Architecture with a change on logics with a specific proposal. Opening a world can disappear the idea of perpetuation of the shape, and begins to the process of adaptive animation.

1.3 Interconnectivity Applications. (Relation and Programs). The Topology can be applied in the exploration of systems that can be used for different needs. With one logic that shows the individuality of the ideas and not like the only solution for different problems. Adaptive animations can be revolutionary concepts, because the possibilities can change itself, in the exploration of programs that uses not only the space but also the time. Programs really animated, that can be transformed in long of the time and their tectonics is manifests for this fluctuating constants that are the subject.

But the above can be applied in uses to think in a mutation of the programs that can be a new way to simulate combination of programs and explore their behaviours. Simulated and their fusion programs like the loops, can be a new way to explore the programs as parametric and their combination possibility, that also can be produce programs that never will be thinking in fusion and determined new ways for manifest of a gamma of environments to change these. And it is here where the relationship begins to change and Mutate showing new interconnectivity systems and new assembly nodes of these fluctuant networks of information that have the condition of the constant flow.

The Topology it’s an open system that offers a dialog in all topics. Not like a solution of problems but more as a tool without radicalization, like a tool for developing adaptability. Topology teaching system can be really dynamic a continues, holder of a variability that is defined for parameters loaded on interconnected information with the time and space.

The Topology teaches to work the space in a Topological way. Leaving on aside the perpetuation of the space, like a mystic container, turning the development of fluctuant dynamics that can be manifested randomly without their information. Holding a latent change in dynamics, that can develop devices that will become manifest with the time. Not in a metaphysical way but instead a physical science.

The need to have variants in the system makes to explore the executions of load devices of information in real time; dynamics and animated, that can be operating on a world with constant information and the transformation for itself. Answers for systems that were impossible.

The Topology shows us that it can be transformed without ceasing. That it is now if they will be same, although their structure say the contrary, blurry the myths and focus on the possibility of the dynamic systems from their continuity and also their execution limits.

Human-centered design in context of architecture. New Input.

Abstract

Research considers the term of Human-centered Design in context of architecture. Essentially this term is used in context of product design, it was invented for that context. One of the main features of it is concentration in people’s needs, minds. Design, oriented to people. Design, which involves them in, as a factor of influence. Concentration less on an object of design, but on its parameters, and the most important of the parameters is human.

In context of architecture this term can have even more output, different perspectives and variable decisions. How to understand and simulate the human-mind factor and include it in the container of standard functions for a building, open space or architecture in general? And how to invent a new kind of “architectural program” or “architectural concept”, which contains functions, based on analysis of peoples needs primarily and thinking of the ensuing influence on architectural expression?

Focusing on “the architectural program” in a critical approach to traditional conceptions of architectural programs (based on functionalism), and confront to emergent programs in architecture, that may be able to capture dynamic input, fluctuating flows may allow a tremendous shift on the way spaces are designed and used.

Smart Cities to Smart Indian Villages

India being a developing country is growing economically at a rapid pace. This growth is manly
seen in Urban India, but majority of the people in rural India still have to struggle for their basic needs.
Due to the lack of economic gain in villages people are migrating to big cities in hope for a better
future, but ultimately not being skilled these people have to live a hard life in the cities
and tend to get involved in criminal activities increasing the crime rate of the cities. Intersate
and cross-state migrations are effecting the growth of the cities and of the country.
Poor planning strategies have led to a large amount of resources being wasted on
infrastructure that is not actually helping the villages. Most of the time is spent on
assumptions and planning wrong things at the wrong place e.g. setting up a school in a
region least accessible for the villages.
The aim of the paper is to see the techniques implemented in smart cities like real time
data collection, data management, optimization of resources, using the technology in
connecting the people together and providing data so that the city behaves and functions
like one body. Using such strategies in context with the rural environment and to observe
if such strategies make a difference, as the success of these strategies would not only
affect the villages but affect the country as a whole.

Unexpected Ugly Mutation is a New Start…

This essay is a notional approach to define the emergence of the mutated entities, It’s an approach to understand the impact of time on the genesis of matter. The materialization of complex  compositions in the natural and social systems. The composed layers of spontaneous selection occurred on the living organisms and living contexts. If we conceive time as real parameter in morphogenesis, how it can change the genesis of forms (design approaches)? What make a singular object emerge in time? And where these entities come from? What it’s relation to matter? An attempt in this paper to observe  time flow effect on matter and its milieu and to approach this architectural mystery.

This study aim is to define the characteristics of the mutation event and to search for its incarnation in contemporary architectural models. The emergence of self organization environments is an explicit paradigm of singular morphogenesis. Also a further study to refugee camps can proof the pregnancy of possibilities and virtual which can be actualized in time.

style wars….modernism to parametricism

Over the centuries, Architecture has gone through series of developments, changes, improvements. Architects have always been romanticized or criticized on the way they perceive architecture, which led to the term “Architectural Style”. Architectural style can also be defined as a way of classifying architecture that gives emphasis to characteristic features of design. The industrial revolution of late 18th century made a huge impact on the construction industry, which completely changed the architecture practiced then. With the advance in technology and materials, several new styles emerged throughout the globe.

Given this context, some of the important styles or the encouraging ones discussed here are Modernism, Post Modernism, and Deconstructionism. As the 21st century brought a new era for Architectural design, CAD programs have evolved together with the idea of Form Finding. A new style of architecture born- Parametricism. But with this advent, the architectural sense seems to be losing its place in the entire design process. The conventional hand sketch has transformed to become complicated forms represented in renders, making the mere representation tools overtake the brains.

What is parametricism actually? Does it have any guiding principles? Is it economical? Can it become a unified style for the 21st century?
