It uses a unique methodology where film acts as a generative script, determining the survival of image pixel points based on specific parameters. The site, Palacio de les Belles Arts, though demolished, remains significant to Barcelona\u2019s cultural heritage from the Exposition. &nbsp; Integrating the site\u2019s heritage, the proposed building utilizes 50th-anniversary celebration video footage to generate complex geometric \u2018columns\u2019. These columns, unpredictable in form yet following specific rules and patterns, are strategically placed on the site, developing the building\u2019s master plan. They create a landscape that wraps around the building, transforming and augmenting its spaces. The design embraces a playful twist of geometries, scaling from structural elements to detailed components. Untitled Monuments exemplifies an experiment embodying the qualities of filmic experience, challenging the obviousness of visual surfaces within the \u2018columns\u2019 and using the interplay of light to create depth.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"padding:56.25% 0 0 0;position:relative;\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/963169164?badge=0&amp;autopause=0&amp;player_id=0&amp;app_id=58479\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;\" title=\"Iris_Module_1\"><\/iframe><\/div><script src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/api\/player.js\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><br>Project 1 Methodology<\/strong><br>The first project investigates using image pixel points as input for script data to generate forms that evolve similarly to plant growth. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/unit-21.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Module_2-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/unit-21.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Module_2-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/unit-21.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Module_2-250x156.jpg 250w, https:\/\/unit-21.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Module_2-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/unit-21.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Module_2-1536x960.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/unit-21.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Module_2-2048x1280.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><br>The \u2018Column\u2019 Collection<\/strong><br>A collection of organic \u2018columns\u2019 generated by a grasshopper script, showing its complex geometries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"padding:70.73% 0 0 0;position:relative;\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/963169424?badge=0&amp;autopause=0&amp;player_id=0&amp;app_id=58479\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;\" title=\"Iris_Module_3_Edit\"><\/iframe><\/div><script src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/api\/player.js\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><br>Final Plans and Section<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"padding:70.73% 0 0 0;position:relative;\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/963169449?badge=0&amp;autopause=0&amp;player_id=0&amp;app_id=58479\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;\" title=\"Iris_Module_4\"><\/iframe><\/div><script src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/api\/player.js\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><br>Technical<\/strong><br>Demonstrating the structural detail of \u2018columns\u2019 into the building design and the use of CNC toolpathing to create surface texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"padding:56.25% 0 0 0;position:relative;\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/963169543?badge=0&amp;autopause=0&amp;player_id=0&amp;app_id=58479\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;\" title=\"Iris_Module_5\"><\/iframe><\/div><script src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/api\/player.js\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><br>Project 2: Final Film<\/strong><br>A journey through the building proposal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Untitled Monuments | Barcelona, Spain | Unit 21 | 2024wentong.feng.21@ucl.ac.uk Nestled within the historical site of Barcelona\u2019s 1888 World Exposition, \u2018Untitled Monuments\u2019 is a cultural center dedicated to film conservation and restoration.
