the beginning of jenga 7


Earlier tonight, I met with my former group members from [E]merge (Kathryn, Abigail, Corry, Austin, and Leslie), as well as team Trepide (Cassie, Sharon, Kelly, Blakeni, Kara, and Dajana). We discussed our two buildings and their similarities that could join them together as a cohesive design. We found that there were actually many things in common. While my team's building used C's and columns to highlight verticals and horizontals, Trepide used a series of horizontal planes at various lengths to showcase their dematerialization. Overall, we liked the idea of all these key elements having their individual moments but then coming together in one place, similar to what we did in Jenga 6, with the front entrance. Tomorrow we will do a charette style class where we will meet with our original groups of 3, then the groups of 6, then finish all together with 12. I think this will help a lot with our design, being able to revisit each original building and how it has emerged throughout the Jenga assignments. This could trigger more similarities (and differences) than we have already noticed.
