Podcast Description
Experiments in inflatable structures and video content in architecture today. Made by architecture students at the California College of the Arts in San Francisco, this video podcast is the result of an interdisciplinary study taught by Jordan Geiger. The class studies two types of technologies that involve air in architecture: pneumatics (construction) and broadcast (representation). Each podcast presents a different experiment.
| Name | Description | Released | Price | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Video"Place" by Zee Metheny | "Place" is created, formed and interpreted individually as an area of metaphysical occupancy - a cohesion of visual, acoustic and material influences internally and externally provided, and the continuous impact of its occupant-contributor. | 5/15/06 | Free | View In iTunes |
| 2 | VideoBuilding Inflatable Form by Keiji Matsuura | My inflatable architecture is the exploration of expansion and contraction by layering and stitching different components together. Experimenting with balloons, net/mesh fabric and latex, I documented the process of making inflatable form. | 5/5/06 | Free | View In iTunes |

| 5 | Video6th Floor: Blowin' Up by Danny Garcia | This project re-evaluates the conventional elevator cab and proposes changes to its program. The elevator shaft, as site, was chosen because of its ability to display one of the most important architectural representations, the section. | 5/5/06 | Free | View In iTunes |
