DIAGRAMMING & ANALYSIS- MGF MALL

Construction of metro station has disrupted the harmony of the place. 

                        

The car traffic and pedestrian traffic intersect each other ,

 which creates a chaos in the area especially in the evenings.

My attempt is to bind all the people who are presently scattered and to make them use the space.

                                         void space in centre created due to oval circulatory path

                                                    

                                               Main cause for round  movement path :   Level differences

Due to lack of clear visibility in path through level differences people mostly unwilling to venture two steps down

                                                                     Seating Pattern
                                          Most people like to sit on the planters edging the steps

                                                               Wind pattern flow
                                             wind funnelled in due to shape of structure

 Change in wind flow with weather

In the evening a lot of people come to the area behind the building

The open corridor like space behind building

Space is shaded

Space has privacy

analysis and diagramming - heritage city

MATERIALITY

The space (37m * 37m) is enclosed by four blocks in HERITAGE city.

A flat cemented ground with underground parking and a shaded seating as the only public amenities. The ground for one of the flash mobs.

FLASH MOB- EFFECT

The flash mob was conducted with not much participation from the people. 

Given below are reasons pointed out for the mob being ineffective.

                          

REASON - 2

The high vertical difference,

 The 6 ft average height  people struggling to fight the feeling of constantly being under the view of people in the building.

the two reasons stated earlier further provide an understanding of the space being used as  only "THOROUGHFARE" .

My attempt is at making people pause to be in the space.

the red marks show the position of the installation.

Strategy

Start building the structure on Saturday afternoon at 2 p.m.

Takes around 10 minutes to build each structure.

Total number of structures = 4 ( 2 big ones, and 2 small ones )

Minimum number of people required =

   -  12 for installing structure (3 for each structure)

   -    3 of us will be mapping and standby.

   -     1 person will be on top floor of the metro station taking photographs.

   -     Others will join the mob.

PROCEDURE

•STEP 1: installation

       TIME: 2pm

       DATE: 11th sep 2010

       DAY: Saturday

      1)  4 groups of 3 each will start installing the structure.

       2)  it will be completed in 10 min.

•STEP 2: painting the structure.

      1) we start painting the components meanwhile 2 students from mob join         

          each structure which would invite people to engage in the activity.

       2)Then we ask the people who joined in to get them clicked with the

           structure.

STEP 3: disassembling  the structure  and dispersing.

          TIME : 2:40pm

This is showing a part of the serpent. the Tail is going in and the body coming out of the ground. and then the body will go in and the head will come out of the ground.

the part of the installion. it is one of the four structures which are to be placed.
