Interaction with Wind

Looking at these diagrams, observing the wind directions and intensities through the year,

it showed me that the wind from west is dominating and the intensity is much higher in the winter months than in the summer.

To translate these into my device I connected the different aspects, I wanted my device to contain, with the wind direction and intensity:

The position of the elements
The size of the elements
The material of the elements
  
These three aspects are deeply connected to each other and each aspect related to the other aspects in movement, effects and interaction with surroundings.

Inspiring Lecture

At the lecture, Bijoy Jain described their project of a way to; "Create an architecture that is non-dependent of position and material". With this he was referring to their experimental way of connecting experiences with material that either is found at site or how the materials somehow emphasize the experiences.

From his point of view the work of an architect can always be linked back to the need of connections: "As an architect we always look for a point to connect"

By linking his point of view to my intension with my project, I realized that I am trying to create a connection between my experience of the wind through my window and the experience of the movement of different materials. I somehow try to create an architecture that is depending on position and materials. At least I try to create something where the experience changes when materials or positions are changed.
