URBAN PATTERNS & STRUCTURES
Our modern attempts to create cities artificially are, from human point of view, entirely unsuccessful.
Starting by researching patterns in nature, we came to the conclusion that there is a solution to build more natural pathways in an artificial city.
Researching the distance between a flock of birds, the pattern wich soap creates and researching city structures are a short summary of the experiments in the book.
How does it feel to be completely off the radar?
Is complete isolation the solution to our busy daily lifes? Maybe in order to escape our busy lifes we need some tools to experience complete inner peace.
Based on research on escapism and the fenomen *cabin fever I made in collaboration with artist Hedwich Rooks a suit which exists of faraday fabric. This most common in the military used fabric isolates all the incoming signals and blocks the ability to hack into your smartphone or laptop.
