Oma program diagram9/20/2023 ![]() ![]() It is the superimposition of different human activities as seen in the section of the building that allows for an unexpected life to emerge. This is illustrated by the odd condition of having an oyster bar in a locker room facing the Hudson, naked men with boxing gloves eating oysters. His analysis of the Downtown Athletic Club is an optimistic and opportunistic look on how the stacking of different human activities (program) can generate different and exciting modes of living and architecture. This so called retroactive manifesto studies how diverse forces and pressures (developers, zoning constraints, and metropolitan anxieties) gave form to Manhattan. Dung Ngo, (Houston: Rice School of Architecture, 1998)įor Koolhaas and OMA, the concept of the program is traced back to the analysis carried out in the book, Delirious New York. “One of the great lack of architecture today is that these institutions are not being defined, that are being taken as a given by a programmer and made into a building.” Louis Kahn: Conversation with Students, ed. The architect has a civic duty and responsibility that goes beyond the brief. He is not merely satisfying the brief and servicing his client but a placing a building in a society. In this scenario, the architect takes a more active role in the design of a project. He looks for what truly makes a school, a hospital, a library, a laboratory to which will lift the spirit. ![]() Kahn searches for the “nature” or the inherent qualities that make a human institution by looking at archetypes. Dung Ngo, (Houston: Rice School of Architecture, 1998) p.55 Kahn stated : “As a professional you are obliged to translate the program of a client into that of the spaces of the institution this building it is to serve.” Louis Kahn: Conversation with Students, ed. ![]() This was a way to generate a type of architecture that provided inspiration to both the spaces and the activities that would take place inside the spaces. In other words, the architect should not take the program and translate it de facto into a building.Īfter the architect has received the program, Kahn advocated for a phase of reprogramming by which through a dialogue with the client the architect would try to find the nature of the design problem or what he would want the project to be. For both Kahn and Koolhaas, this definition is limited.įor Kahn, the program should not be taken literally. It also represents the client’s desires and aspirations for a future building. In this document, the client describes the types of spaces, the sizes and numbers of rooms, and the budget for carrying out the project. The program has been defined as the client’s brief. This essay seeks to reveal two different approaches of program in design. Both architects have operated their practices through the concept of program. On the other hand, the Office of Metropolitan Architecture (OMA) and Rem Koolhaas have gained more notoriety as a group of architects being program driven. However, little attention has been placed to the more humanistic facet of his work and his interest in using the program as an instrument to create spaces that are inspiring and dignify the institutions of man. Much attention has gone into his use of materials, the crafting of light, the orchestration of space, and the physical manifestation of architecture. The aesthetic appearance of Louis Kahn’s buildings has been thoroughly studied. Ana Miljacki et al, “2 Architects 10 Questions on Program: Rem Koolhaas + Bernard Tschumi”, Praxis 8: Re: Programming, p.7 I have been trying to find ways that we could circumvent or avoid the Architect’s passivity and by this I mean his or her dependence on others.” ed. “Program increasingly has another connotation for me, which is closer to Agenda. You please society in your programming, not in the way you do your lousy building.” Louis Kahn: Conversation with Students, ed. If you change that programming, you release wonderful forces because the individual then never makes the mistake of making something which pleases himself. “Our profession is shabby only because we do not change the programming. ![]()

Elevens romper stranger things 39/20/2023 ![]() ![]() Last season pitted these two as rivals, but thankfully the shift is towards friendship this year. After Mike blows her off - at the behest of Hopper - she turns to Max for advice. Sure, the three-inches-open-door rule makes sense, but the earlier curfew and not being able to go to the mall (there are too many people) are kind of excessive. Mike is clumsy in his reaction telling her she looks “Pretty. good.” However, this does turn into a sweet moment later on when Mike tells her she's pretty without the wig.Ĭut to this season! Baggy plaid shirts are back and El is still being kept at arm’s length from the rest of her peers. They don’t think they can get her into the school unnoticed in sweats with a shaved head, but dressing her like a doll in a frock from the '70s just alienates her further. This ensemble by Season 1 costume designer Kimberly Adams - who designed the first four episodes - is one of the most instantly recognizable looks from the whole series.Ĭoncepts of prettiness are instilled in us from an early age, so when the boys pick out the girliest of outfits for Eleven in “The Body,” it underscores the expectations about how girls are supposed to dress. ![]() This was the first makeover Eleven received, which consisted of Nancy's (Natalia Dyer) old pink dress and blonde wig. At Mike’s (Finn Wolfhard) house, she was gifted a pair of clean sweats before changing into something traditionally feminine so she could blend in at their school. In Season 1, she bounced from a hospital gown to an oversized T-shirt courtesy of Benny (Chris Sullivan) before he got gunned down. Spoilers within for Season 3 of Stranger Things. Even after she escapes her experimental prison, she ends up squirreled away by Hopper (David Harbour) out in the wilderness and dressed in items that were probably his (or at least acquired from work). Instead, this sartorial journey has mirrored her integration into society as these garments are thrust upon her rather than curated carefully. However, there are still times where it feels like she is being pulled in several different directions by the very people who have her best interests at heart but aren't factoring in her autonomy.Ĭlothing doesn't necessarily define us, but it is a way to express who we are and so far Eleven hasn't had a lot of agency in this arena either. At the start of Season 3 of Stranger Things, Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) is finally getting to participate in regular teenage activities including first boyfriends and hanging out with friends without the added pressure of saving the world. ![]() Even if you haven’t spent the majority of your life as a top-secret government asset, finding a sense of self during adolescence can be hard enough. ![]()

Barney dvd9/20/2023 ![]() ![]() While not being careful, they fall down, hence losing the bucket BJ gave them.īarney eventually comes back to inquire about band practice, only to find out that they need help in finding types of dances. Eventually, the doorbell rings and BJ finds Jack and Jill asking for a pale to fetch some water. Back downstairs, Barney and Baby Bop have cleaned up. The trio then notices a blue jay outside the window who wants to be in their band. BJ then gets the idea to invent a new song and dance with a new sound. In the Music Room, BJ plays the drums, Jeff plays the guitar and Jill plays the keyboard, all in the band BJ and the Rockets. Barney begins to vacuum the mess which prompts BJ, Jeff and Jill to go upstairs to the Music Room. As the flowers grow, they make Baby Bop begin to sneeze everywhere, which eventually leads her to sneeze in a big pile of tissues that leads to a mess all over Barney's living room. Noticing her blankey now smells like pickles, Barney mentions that he can wash it as it's one of the chores he was going to do.īaby Bop decides to help Barney with his chores by watering his Every Fruit Tree and other flowers. She wipes some pickle juice off of BJ's mouth with her blankey. After they finishing eating, Baby Bop arrives. While the cookies are still baking, they decide to eat pickles, which is BJ's favorite snack. Smelling the cookies Barney is baking, BJ has a desire for a snack. Wondering if the children are in their beds due to him thinking it's eight o'clock, Barney assures him that his clock is broken. Suddenly, the doorbell rings and Barney finds Wee Willie Winkie at his door. While being unable to find him, they find other things in Barney's house, such as his Spin-the-Globe Radio. They decide to look for BJ by taking the Upsy-Daisy elevator upstairs and into various rooms. Both the of the children are looking for BJ so they could practice for their rock and roll band BJ and the Rockets. He then starts showcasing a few other things inside his house such as his library and his paint by numbers painting.Įventually the doorbell rings and Barney finds Jill and Jeff at the door. Having a feeling the viewer would be visiting, he baked some cookies for their arrival, which aren't finished baking however. Barney invites the viewer into his house. It then cuts to a group of children creating a house for Barney made out of cardboard and various creative materials before transitioning into a full sized house that the viewers are transported to. From there, Barney surfs down a music note slide and then tells viewers on what they can expect in the video. For the music variants, see above.The video begins with the season three intro of Barney & Friends before transitioning into the CGI depiction of Barney. The logo, however, was silent until Let's Pretend With Barney. In Barney's Stu-u-u-upendous Puzzle Fun!, similar to Barney's Magical Musical Adventure, the opening silhouette was replaced the current home video logo in the intro sequence and it fades into the opening shot of Barney coming to life and greeting the kids.Ī short version of the Barney and the Backyard Gang/Barney and Friends theme song.Beginning in 1996, Barney tapes that are part of the "Classic Collection" (such as the 1996 re-prints of the Barney and the Backyard Gang videos), have a special variant in which "CLASSIC COLLECTION" wipes in underneath "HOME VIDEO", turning it gold instead of grey.Barney's eye "winks" once, exactly much like the 1st logo. The word " Barney", in a blue 3D stylized, Barney corporate logo font, flies up at the top of the screen, below the logo is the words "HOME VIDEO" wiping in via an effect. We start with a yellow background, but suddenly the background folds into a CGI star on a blue Magna Doodle-like tube, revealing a cartoon version of Barney on a black background. In the Spanish dub of Barney Live! In New York City ( Barney en Vivo en Nueva York), the announcer says "Barney y sus Amigos".In another variation, as used on Barney's Magical Musical Adventure, the logo replaces the original Barney & Friends title card (a.k.a silhouette) during the intro sequence.There is a silent version of the logo which is used from 1992 to 1993 until “Let’s Pretend With Barney”.There is a special variant seen on trailers of some Barney home videos in which "Also Available From" (in white) on a blue star fades in on the top-corner of the screen.Inside a square is a cartoon version of Barney, with his green tummy, and Barney's eye "shines" much like at the end of the opening credits for Barney and the Backyard Gang and Barney & Friends. The words "HOME VIDEO" fades in below the square, sparkling. On the Barney & Friends Season 1 background, we see the yellow text "Barney", in the Barney corporate logo font, zooming into the center and then to the top of the screen as a blue square appears. ![]()

![]() ![]() You can play as the other play members too of course, so switching members out and trying out different characters is one way to keep things interesting as you learn to master the movesets.ĭawn of the New World features a full 3D battle system similar to Tales of the Abyss or Tales of Vesperia, and while the battle gameplay is improved from its predecessor, there are only two new playable characters, with the rest of the party filled with non-playable monster members. Even so, it is functional and there perhaps there is appeal to some in having its simple structure. It’s likely you’ll find yourselves repeating similar actions in battles often because there is not much variety in how you can approach the combat. While the fluidity was something to behold at the time and is a foundational part of current Tales battle mechanics, it feels a bit dated in the current day, and it lacks some intricacy. Some passive traits can be set by using ‘Ex Spheres’ which includes abilities such as increased movement speed, and also affect what in battle techniques the character will learn.Ĭombat is more basic than later Tales titles, but still enjoyableĬompared to later titles, including Dawn of the New World on the same disc, the skill and battle system in Symphonia can feel too basic at times. Symphonia was an early foray into 3D for the series, and many aspects of the gameplay remain simple and straightforward.Ĭombos are generally done by chaining a series of attacks using the control stick to vary the actions performed, followed by one or two battle techniques after that. While Symphonia features a 3D field unlike some of the early 'Tales of' titles, movement is still restricted to a 2D plane as you can only move your character towards or away from the enemy. Battles are initiated by encountering enemy icons on the screen, which will bring the party to a 3D battle arena for the engagement – typical for the series. The gameplay in Symphonia remains nearly the same as the original release. To celebrate the original title’s tenth anniversary, Bandai Namco decided to rerelease both titles as a collection on PlayStation 3 as Tales of Symphonia: Chronicles. Symphonia was well enough liked, that it spawned a sequel several years later on Nintendo Wii – Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World – featuring an upgraded battle system and new characters. Several fondly remember the storyline and characters of the game as well. ![]() The battle mechanics would become the backbone of the systems found in future games of the franchise. Praised for its action battle system, Tales of Symphonia was a fast and fun RPG that players could sink more than 50 hours into, even with friends, due to local co-operative capability. ![]()

File synchronization and sharing9/20/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() While there are general solutions for online storage, syncing has the advantage of updating as your files in real-time, so you always have a current and up-to-date copy of what you need.
