Studio Schedule and Rhythm

To focus and make it clear what you need to be working on we've developed a systemic way of working through critiques of the studio work on a weekly cycle. Each week we'll establish an order of review and post it here on Sundays. It will be used throughout the week- posted order on Mondays, reverse order on Wednesdays and back to posted order on Fridays.

MONDAYS On Monday afternoons from 14h00 to 19h00 (5 hours) we'll all meet together for group pin-ups. The focus of these reviews will be the urban designs represented on your wall and your presentation enframing of it. From that we'll be generating an agenda for the week in your work. Everyone will participate fully or not at all. We'll incorporate a short break in the middle of the class.

WEDNESDAYS At 14hoo you'll pin up what you have for the day's discussion. Between 14h00 and 14h15 we'll do a quick walk around and ask a few questions about the new work presented. We'll start these sets at 14h15 and proceed until done (approximately 18h00). The focus of these reviews will be the work on the walls- graphics, design, and urbanism- not your presentation or verbal enframing of it. You will not present the work per se but you will be asked questions about what is seen. While individual reviews are proceeding the rest of the class will be working on their projects and theory work in studio quietly and attentively.

FRIDAYS We'll meet in the studio at 10h00 and you'll make presentations to each other in the studio. We'll be finished by 14h00. Everyone should participate fully throughout the four hour class time or not at all. The focus in that class meeting will be project plausibility, persuasiveness, narrative, and organization- not project structure and urban design issues.
