reiser + umemoto
congratulations po chun n szu ti on the amazing projects...!! keep up the good n exciting works,
here is something i came across in regard to po chuns hotel project,
in: 'atlas of novel tectonics'; reiser + umemoto; princeton architectural press, new york 2006 ...
the exact can be of reference to a geometric ideal which has a (re-...)presentation in the physical reality only as an approximation of the idealistic perfection and purity to the imperative of the exactitude, the inexact therefor stands for an approach, an insertion into reality, by aquiring physicality this state is subjected to properties and engagements of being worldly, among people, withholding a stance, of which differs from the 'modeling' of the exact which resides in the infinite and the imaginary...:
... the idea 'circle'... on the level of drawing,
... the appropriation 'roundness'...
... 'cyclic' movement by the passing of time...
... or, the idea 'triangle' with its pythagorean theorem a+b+c=180 degrees...
on the level of applying this calculus, with infinite decimals the impossibility to aquire satisfaction for this exactitude...
... depending on the residence of the object and the position of the observer the 'curvature' which is to compose the acknowledgement of the idea of the 'circle' being fashioned...
the an-exact can be of this presentation dwelling in the field or agglomeration of space and time, particularly observed, by way of its endurance in the world and amidst of things, un-exact (anexact), as a sort of adhered quality which is outside of the self, will be applied ambulantely, like the dutch 'bijkomstigheid'...:
... the accidental, ephemeral effect of interference by superimposition of two systems, it only exists in the 'eye of the beholder' as it were...
just some thoughts...
