Q’s Thesis paper 2nd draft Nov 25, 2007
Introduction
There are certain forces around us which are invisible and undetectable by our senses. Some of these forces are part of nature, the others produced by man. People have been aware of these invisible forces and scientists have been trying to discover them.
Invisible forces have some impacts on our daily lives since we all lives in certain force fields such as gravity, magnetism, electromagnetism and electromagnetism. Invisible magnetic field creates an electrical movement. All in all, invisible force has changed our lifestyle and has many effects on people.
Artists in 20th century tried to materialize invisible energy in various forms. Artists made sculptures, paintings, installations and not to mention films for their artistic experiments throughout the century. Then it influenced other areas such as cinema and architecture.The Exhibition, “Force Field: Phase of the kinetic”, held at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Barcelona in 2000 was a milestone in art history because there was no such exhibition before to cover artists from the 1920s to the 1980s in the area of force field art. The visual artists during this time tried to express invisible force field with their own methods such as moving sculptures, mechanical devices, and experimental drawings under the influence of the drug. -under the influence of drugs- All these artistic works were experiments to give form to the invisible force.These days, the exhibition has significant influence on architecture field. Architects are trying to bring these ideas and apply them to design spaces. Development of 3D software and improved technology also played a great role to make this possible. The contemporary architects successfully applied the concept of force fields to design interactive spaces by analyzing the pattern of movements and consider the flow in the space.
This thesis paper will discuss how artists who deal with the concept of force field have influenced to contemporary architects and explore how architects successfully applied this new theory in architecture.
Body
The scientific theories, from Newton to Einstein, has had a profound effect on development of force field concept in art and architecture. There exist many different invisible forces in human living space such as gravity, magnetism, electromagnetism and electromagnetic radiation. Invisible magnetic field creates an electrical movement. Man had discovered how to generate electricity from this and Thomas Edison used electricity to light up the world. Electromagnetism is also used in electric motor, electricity, light, car, airplane, sound, radio, computer, and television. Force fields are highly corelated to daily lives of human and it is the reason why visual artist and contemporary architects have been trying to materialize invisible forces.
Meaning of force field to ArtistsArtists who deal with the concept of force fields in art are like scientists who tried to prove the invisible force. These artists tried to materialize the invisible force in the force of movement. There are four famous artists who have influenced not only the artistic field but also the other areas.
Jesus Rafael Soto
Soto is a famous kinetic sculptor artist. The one of his famous work is “Penetrable” which consist of square arrays of thin, dangling tubes. Observers can touch, feel and have different optical images due to the movement of tubes as they walk through the room sized installation.
Penetrable of Tongyoung, 1998 Ocre jaune inférieur, 2000
http://www.jr-soto.com/fset_sonoeuvre_uk.html
This form of art creates a illusionary movement when observers moves relative to it. Soto was trying to manifest the existence of force with this moving sculpture. He also used and applied mathematical formula in his art. It is why geometric and linear form can be easily found in his works.
Francois Mollet
Francois Morellet began his career in 1952. The characteristic of Mollet’s work is geometric trend. Mollet was also tried to prove the existence of force through his works. He used geometric forms to materialize the force field since the repetition of straight lines or small squares creates vibrating patterns.
Henri Michaux
Henri Michaux is a French painter, journalist, and poet. Michaux has performed many experiments to express how drug influence his artistic works. In his work, drug just happened to be a method to deliver the force and he participated in these experiments by himself. Interestingly, even though he was unconscious when he draw, all his drawings are consists of repetitions of fine and delicate lines.
Ligia Pape
Ligia Pape had a performance to express energy between people. She had an artistic performance inviting a number of people to put their heads through the holes in a cotton sheet. The cotton plane is the force field. The individual movement is invisible force and the people underneath the cotton plane are the habitant in the field. The movement of individual participant made the cotton sheet to be stretched or folded and she was tried to express the energy between peoples through the individual movements on the cotton plane.

Meaning of force field to Architects
The visual artists in force field have a decisive role in developing new concept of architectural space in relation to force field. It influenced the change of conventional concept of buildings and architects view a building as a living organism which requires harmonization with surroundings. Architects started to apply this new concept of space into design. They design space considering the flow of people, interaction with people and nature. This is a new concept of architectural space adapting behavior pattern of human beings in the force field. There are two architects who deal with invisible in their design work.
Patrik Schumacher, Architect
Patik is a partner of Zaha Hadid and he clearly explained this new domain of architecture in his interview. “We foresee the possibility that most (if not all) architectural space will become responsive and be animated through intelligent kinetic capacities. According to the Schumacher (2004), he sees that the new building will have sensors to monitor the movement of people and apply the patterns to create responsive structures. This is exactly same concept of force field in visual art. Human behavior creates a force and buildings response to it. The development of technology made this possible. With the evolution of 3D software, it is now possible to simulate different scenarios within seconds and allow architects to create the new concept of space.

Ben Van Berkel, Architect

http://www.unstudio.com/
Ben Van Berkel also designed a space based on the analysis of movement patterns of visitors, residents, moving cars and pedestrians. He started with diagram to design which represents the relationship between idea and form, contents and structure. As many visual artists used different solutions to materialize the invisible force fields, Ben Van Berkel used diagram to demonstrate the relationship between the force and the structure. To Ben Van Berkel, structure is not homogeneous and it assume different identities.
Conclusion
Buildings exist within the force field space. There is force within the buildings and also outside of the buildings. It can be a geometric force, force between people and any artificial force generated by machine. They influence each other and it is why architects try to design a space interacting with them. It is a new concept of space and visual artist in force field had a great influence on. The development of new scientific theories from Newton to Einstein also has decisive role in giving profound effect on this new concept of space. Architects have been used gravity as a defining force directing the path of a building but gravity is no longer used for defining force itself. Architects now consider various other invisible forces in designing space.

Feedback to Jung Yuen Shin
Communicate with audience who are in different places.
01.
Interactive medium is one of the good ways of communication with people who are in other places.
02.
This thesis statement is effective because I can assume about this paper and see her opinions. Her words keep irritating me.
03.
This essay is effective because I can see clearly what she wants to say and it’s easy to read and understand
04.
a. yes b. yes c. yes d. no
05.
I did
06.
A paragraph in page3. I really like this paragraph!!!
Jung Yuen used the sentence “we leave places and we cannot go back” It allow me to understand easily why the communication way is so important between artists and audiences.
07.
From the end of page 2 to beginning of the page 3, I want to see more examples which can support your idea. It is easy to understand but It’s little abstract.
08.
I don’t have question because this paper is well organized. I just expect to read the paragraph “how to make”
09.
I found the word “we and I” at the end of the paper. You change a tone so it makes me confuse.
10.
You said “these kinds of media and information control people.” I think it will be better if you can give some example to explain how to control people. You also said “We can use the virtual reality in good way.” In this sentence, I am not sure what the good way is.

First group proposal - Plagiarism

In this case of study, Igor Zakarov a Russian student bought a paper from his friend George to submit to Professor Graham because he has some problems such as lack of time, poor grammar, pressure and not to mention the need to get the high grade in order to graduate earlier. Even though George said that it will be no problem to buy a paper, Professor Graham was suspicious and found out it was not Igor’s paper.We could guess that Igor bought the paper from George.The reason why we think that way is that not only he didn’t know how serious the plagiarism is in the United States, but also he was convinced by George that nothing was going to happen. However, contrary to the George’s opinion, we know that it can make a serious problem. Even though a substantial number of students have been tempted to plagiarize, we think this should not be accepted in any situation.At first, schools should teach their students the meaning and consequences of plagiarism as soon as they get into the school. Moreover, we strongly believe that this kind of Igor’s action should be punished with an F to fail the class .However, we think that the second chance should be given to the students due to the fact that everyone could make a mistake.

HP summury, analysis and feedback
1) Revision of Summary - HP
This is about the marketing campaign of HP. The reason why they began this campaign is that they wanted to get more consumers who would buy their products and use the web site to present their goals. After making the website, they hoped to earn money and that more people would use their products. According to this article, there is no doubt that HP is the biggest printer company in the world. However, Hewlett-Packard is beginning to start the marketing campaign to make people think about using their printers and ink more. HP saw the possibility of selling their products to people and It was successful. Even though they are at the top of the global printing market, they keep trying to appeal to consumers.
2) Individual Analysis -HP
I think that focusing on the online user is the only way to attract new consumers. Even though we can find printers everywhere and it is demonstrated that printers were one of the most important devices for people, people today do not use their printers extensively.and due to the fact that people will ride wave of the web.
3) What I learned about the weaknesses of my writing when I worked with a writing tutor.
Tutor said :
- Making grammer error (specially article and verve tense)
- Not choosing proper words.
- Not knowing what’s more common phrase.
