127sho_design your neighbour

If architecture is defined as much by the events that it witnesses as the spaces that it encloses (as the Situationists, Tschumi, Coates et al claim), then a good starting point for a design might be to create the end building user. Who would you want to live with? Who would be your choice neighbour? And what is the professional opposite of an architect’s office: a WOW nail salon?

130pod_MOBILE CINEMA? FOR LONDON FIELDS? AND?

This project for a mobile cinema is sighted in the ideological triangle between cinema (projecting lens), camera (recording lens) and object (human eye lens).

1967 Bedford mobile cinema unit with Plaxton Panorama cab on a Bedford SB3 chassis.

2004 Screen Machine 2…

…seats 60.

2010 Artist Romana Schmalisch’s Mobile Cinema has travelled to Zurich, Moscow, Rome, Bucharest, Kaliningrad, Vilnius, Kaunas, Warsaw, Berlin Muzychi, Kiev, London, Paris and Yerevan: “It is a reconstruction of a film prop from Alexander Medvedkin’s film “The New Moscow” (1938): a projection and viewing table where an engineer on his journey to Moscow presents his designs and urban visions for the new city – a bizarre model that is somewhere between urban model, cinema, and plate camera.”

And what kind of seating?
