- The form of intrusion (or the disturbance) to the grid (the neutral and generic) needs to be more specified and more aggressively addressed. This will allow introducing the design aspect into the project.
- The notion of space is missing. What can you put into the space; what can you say through the space, in terms of knowledge gathered, making it accessible or inaccessible, have it guarded, etc? How can you talk about the hierarchy of library by the differentiation between the reader, the keeper, and the books spatially?
- Need more inventive types of drawings and models that are in a way not conformed or controlled. Explore through the act of making.
Directions Suggested:
- Inserting other source of libraries, a zoo for example, or the historical relationship between libraries and gardens - collapsing the historical understanding of knowledge and the contemporary understanding of knowledge. What is the pleasure of the library?
- Explore, evaluate, and understand through the manipulation of contents (exaggeration). [Andres] Gursky the precedent and the grid, then compare the two super-Gurskys.
- Take the understandings and conclusions drawn from the pre-jury works, challenge the original, find where the conflicts (or the disturbances) occur and negotiations made.
- Grid helps defining and measuring things. Take it to the very abstract point. It could give an intangible/invisible structure to access, categorise, and locate information.
