"Other Earth", 2008

Thesis Project | Prof. Allen, Méndez, Hayles, Daalder

Other Earth is a rhizomatic society of intelligent drifters living a technologically advanced, no-impact lifestyle. The individual nomads can break away at anytime and exist on their own, wearing their Tentative Architecture on their bodies, and allowing their environment to be defined by non-material means. The media-architectural concepts of Other Earth are in support of emergent architectures where form arises from natural pattern and nomadic systems where organism and form are all encompassing, becoming one, and adapting to multiple states. What I hope this peek into Other Earth will bring, is a scenario plan for a future detached from what we have come to be attached to: unnecessary stuff.
