Each step proposal

•••

Movement sensors.

In time when someone passed it, depending on what path they will take, the space will change itself according to their needs and imagination.

Changing transforming space designed specially for different social categories of people.

Children, elders, teens, office workers – they all have different interests and physical capabilities. Some need wider spaces, when others are in need of quiet place to sit.

Wheelchairs, baby carriages require special access instead of usual staircases.

Depending on weather and pedestriants, the space will be changing, like magic, protecting them from strong wind, the rain, or burning sun.

•••

Interactive map.

While the person doesnt know where this turn will take him, the map will show him what destination he can reach in the end. So if that's not the one place he was heading to, then the person can set a different route, that will take him to desired place.

A way to save time and plan ahead.

Navigation for everyone.

Modernisation. Science and technology together.

•••

I want to keep the unexpected turn of events. Even if for only one category of people, for example children.

•••

The labyrinth as a system of interactive segments. Pixels.

I want to create a labyrinth that will help people to orient oneself in space and remember the trajectory/route they take to get anywhere. This labyrinth is supposed not to confuse people, but to make them understand the space they are in.

The shape will be the same of walking paths in Barbican, but it will be separated into rooms with set dimensions, that can have different colors, functions, number of doors and stairs.

Social program:

            Playground (for all ages) / labyrinth

Sequence of spaces:

            Many rooms, “pixels”, segments:

            One-way mirror for the walls and ceiling, natural light:

            Same doors, same staircases (straight, spiral, without steps)

[Pixel means square and color.]

3 Dimensional understanding:

            Pixels don’t exist separately, and together they create a specific order of sequences.           

Order of sequence?

Or sequence of order?

What if I create arrangement of rooms that will confuse people with its order. Or absence of order.

I want to make then doubt if there’s an order in that sequence.

The person is walking through the rooms for hours, opening doors, climbing stairs, counting each step he made.

Is he walking in a huge maze?

Or just in a loop of four rooms?

Endless walk, without any destination.

More of the psychology and philosophy and ideology.

•••

I like to doubt myself.

Do I see what I see?

Or I see what I want to see?

You can call it the play of words, but even that! make you think and try to find the sense.

Demagogy. Doublespeak. Empty rhetoric. Tautology.

When I find a tautological phrase, I always turn it around or rephrase, and try to find any sense in the newly created phrase. Or is there any meaning at all?

And is it ‘sense’ or ‘meaning’?

You sense the sense in it and you mean the meaning.

What if we look into something and try to find a sense in it, in the end, will we actually find many different senses or no sense at all?

You have a very clear idea, and you start talking more about it. So tell me – the more you talk, will you understand more, or will you start to understand less?

The less you say, the clearer it is. Or not enough information to grasp it?

And then the more you say, the more confused you became?

Really? Are you sure?

Every message must have an idea in it. Depending on what you want to say, you! choose the way to phrase it.

I want to create a question in you, or more specifically, make you react with a question – which way is right?

Oh, and you need to specify – the way to walk, or the way to talk? Perhaps, to mean?
