<<Weimar Impressions>>
1.Background
1.1 Design Requirements
"Using subjective and objective knowledge and production tools (e.g. city walks, photography, writing, video, readings, performance, archive, dérive), this module will explore, analyse and describe the urban cityscape of Weimar and question the historical and social awareness given by some chosen architectural spaces. Through artistic answers, it will consider the position the architectural spaces hold now, what narratives they (potentially) contain and how we can speculate on their possible futures."
1.2 Design Concept
Two months ago, I went to Paris on vacation. When I was in Paris, I found that Paris is a little different from what I imagined. This reminds me of the same situation a year ago: In 2010, I knew I would be going to Weimar but did not know what to expect. My only impressions came from the internet, specifically, from images for which I had searched. Combined, these images formed a vague picture of the city in my head, like those one remembers from a dream; fragments of statues, buildings, streets, etc. But like in dreams, something stands out, and becomes a focal point around which an image arranges itself.
