Here's how far I was able to get with the basic model of the Schindler House today. It still needs work, but it should go much quicker once the whole group gets started on it.

The artwork proposed for the project is indexical in nature, the focus being on the objects in the power they/ it (the Schindler house) posses. The Schindler house is a Los Angeles Icon, and as such has the potential to provide a loaded subject from which to derive a boundless amount of material to work with.
It is from this point that I have found a place to personify my personal interest in the Schindler house. The objects and material portrayed in the work address the material and life forms found around - and functioning within the Schindler house.
This process however is taking too long - its time to just have fun and quit fucking around with concepts and thought.

We were also able to find a website which shows when buildings were built in the LA area. Here's the link
<http://regionalgis.co.la.ca.us/imf51/imf.jsp?site=gisp>
This helped us get the dates for when the buildings surrounding the Schindler House were erected.
This is a screen shot of the program, and the data for the building next to the Schindler House. |
