The age of the new NOMADISM......

Curiosity : Movement : Exploration

Politicians are more nomadic now then ever, social inquisitive, sharing ideas over vast distances is actualised now by explorations.

My idea is to provide a podium of such that will either follow, appear or enhance a politicians travels. Providing shelter from the natural elements and community among its inhabitants (the PUBLIC & the POLITICIANS)  

"A mobile portable structure herald in the dawn of the 

age of new nomadism"

 

 The applications are limitless, buildings have no borders, material, palette, design, style and transportation method are diverse intelligently inhabiting a specific environment,specific time place  reacting to social shifts throughout Australia. 

 "Autonomy of Containers - It merely Accommodates it own shape & size to those of the inhabitant as far a necessary" 

Distributing Throughout Canberra

Through initially working as a group we have chosen to design structures that can all be used as a collective to achieve one of three things:

• Make Politicians more accountable through the built environment

• Enhance Canberra as more of a meeting place and overall a more desirable place to visit through better infrastructure and planning  

• Creating a vessel for the nomadic politician

Above is the existing Canberra Plan and below is the plan with the architectural and infrastructural insertions.

  
All of the groups Structures would feed into the Canberra plan, some fixed like the Grand Central Station, others movable there one day and gone the next. Some inspiration shown below.

DISTRIBUTED.....

Just some imagery that gets me inspired to how many divers things can be considered as distributed.....

 

Im not even too sure what this is but I like it alot

tangible InfraSTRUCTURE

ROAD NETWORKS

I really like the overlapping layers, shadows and the light in these image. The concrete structures look so effortlessly intertwined.   

It is interesting to think about whom is going to access these layers, where do these layers end up, and by what means are they accessed?

RAIL NETWORKS 

Some of the rail systems around the world I have been lucky enough to have had the experience to travel on. The London Tube, Paris Metro and the New York Metro.

Overall the London Tube system was the most efficient interacting and connecting with the bus system for more resourceful travel around the urban environment.

INtangible InfraSTRUCTURE

We commonly consider infrastructure to be those tangible fixed structures that facilitate the operation of our society. The bundles of cables and wires, metro systems, concrete highways and the grids that they run off. 

But here I begin to look and and consider the intangible infrastructure... those we can not visibly see, touch or even comprehend.....

Data Networks

Visible in some components wireless, wired, fiber-optics and satellites. With the growth in miniaturization and convergence technologies the greater public and the Government rely heavily on this infrastructure for society to function. The structure of technological convergence Sensing, Network, Interface, Processing and Security.

Political  

This concept analysis is extremely interesting when thinking about the nomadic politician. It looks into the analysis and identification of the strength of geopolitical relationships among countries around the globe. The analysis used a unique set of data extracted using their News Analytics API — 7,000 trips to foreign countries by 1,000 prominent politicians, generals and business people.

Stem Cells

Extremely fascinating visually. A microscopic look at a human embryonic stem cells. The potential distribution techniques of proteins and information work incredibly efficiently.
