EXPERIMENT 3 - THE CHURCH OF LIGHT BY TADAO ANDO

[ e x p e r i m e n t                  t w o ]
































The biggest climate change known to mankind is about to hit planet Earth. When it does, humans would turn against each other for the possession of land, the biggest fight for survival;
the concept of my movie has been based on an apocalyptic scene, set in the post-human era. Due to the extremity of the climate, Ibaraki is covered in thick snow, and The Church of Light is nothing but ruins. Vegetation grows all over the beautiful wooden floors of the building, and the roof has been destroyed into nothing but wooden pieces. The concrete walls have also been taken down due to the heavy war weaponry. Rust and moss covers the beautiful details of Tadao Ando's work. A scene of pure tragedy and chaos, this is The Church of Light after a 100 years.

Week 14 : Lecture Review

This week's lecture was on the world of gaming. Different gaming companies were mentioned in this lecture, and the different roles were clearly explained. Throughout the semester, we have adapted several programming skills through programs such as CryEngine and 3DSMax. The valuable skills I have learnt through this course would definitely help with the presentation, demonstration and execution of my design work through computing techniques.

Week 13 : Lecture Review

This week's lecture focused on the 3D programs used in the field of architecture. Furthermore, we explored the decay of a building throughout the long period of time, and how it would withstand nature.
Technology has assisted the role of being an architect so well, and the further development of technology would continue improve the grade of the working life of an architect.

Week 12 : Lecture Review

This week's lecture was about pictures and movie trailers. We looked at several movie trailers in significance to the apocalypse. This has contributed to some ideas towards my final movie as my concept is in relation to the post-human existence. We also looked at pictures of abandoned buildings after tragic disasters.
