Forming Habits in Pattern Thinking

Is pattern thinking analogous to a recurrent behavioral coping mechanism? I have often contemplated this possibility and concluded that the identity inherent in notions or representations in pattern thinking cannot elucidate repetition; it requires a more significant ‘positive’ foundation. This inquiry must include all conceptions of nature and liberty. For example, natural occurrences are never static or comparable but adhere to a continuous shifting logic. The outcomes result from replications, alterations, enhancements, and omissions according to fundamental coding principles, which align with the dynamic patterns of nature.

Architects, interior designers, and fine artists use geometric patterns in textiles, ceramics, metals, building materials, and manuscripts. This examines the relationship between architecture and the arts by presenting various shapes, forms, models, and formulas. How can we infuse the imagination with such forms and motifs and integrate combinatorial play into everyday activities to make visual parallels integral to the cognitive development of the human brain?

Mandelbrot and van Ness used the term “fractional Brownian motions” to generalize conventional Brownian motions in their landmark publication, “Fractional Brownian motions, fractional noises, and applications.” Space Sound is an initiative that investigates the work of architect and musician Iannis Xenakis. Iannis Xenakis utilized mathematics and computing to compose music. He employed stochastic processes such as Brownian motion to generate unrest in his compositions, and Brownian motion is responsible for the glissandi of N’Schima’s instruments. Deep into the project, it becomes clear that space sound primarily involves graphic depictions of Xenakis’ approaches. Using concepts such as boolean algebra, aleatory distribution of points on a plane, Brownian motion, and cellular automata, he explores spatial or architectural qualities and creates small animations using scripting. How can we perpetually cultivate a schematic mode of thought that allows for conceptualizing any specific topic in an environment that transforms it into something innovative and original? What methods may facilitate the establishment of this as a habit?

Defining Perspectival Spaces at Cambridge Creation Lab

MIT researchers have discovered a novel method for constructing intricate three- dimensional structures using self-assembling polymer materials, which generate minuscule wires and junctions. They arrange block copolymer layers into orderly perpendicular rows, thus facilitating the creation of smaller chip components and serving as an alternative to photolithography used in the 1960s for computer chip fabrication. This evokes the image of a net, where intersecting fibers knot at their junctions, creating a flexible grid of square compartments. It evokes the concept of a fish trap, still in use for capturing fish and crustaceans, or the nets crafted by ancient Hawaiians from olona, firebrand, and stone sinkers. I focus on a site-specific wire mesh sculpture that, via its translucency, absorbs light and color, seamlessly integrating into the skyline while merging lyrical sublimity with appealing viewpoints on the present vs. the past. In a distinct setting, Irish author James Joyce ...

Color Perceptions

The classification of color remains a complex area of inquiry that has concerned philosophers, writers, and scientists throughout history. Is it an inherent characteristic of objects, such as dimensions and form? Is it an illusion, purely subjective and derived from visual experiences? The experimental modernist writer Hilda Doolittle, known by her initials H.D., believed it was her responsibility to synthesize disparate elements and explore the significance of color through a provocative, challenging, reductive, expansive, and analytical lens. Thus, she interrogated the entire notion of color in poetry. H.D. was dedicated to the ideal of completeness that centuries of Europeans had invested in Ancient Greece. The poet's desire for the complete subjugation of color and sensations is paradoxical, as the enchantment of color and objects is essential to her. The poet's yearning for a "still" and "unmoving" world stems from the inherent violence of object...

Optical Consciousness is a Reprojection or Realignment of the Mind to Create a Multidimensional Space

(The onset and core values of Cambridge Creation Lab) I spent more than five years completing my project, A Square and a Half-The Colors are Sounding, culminating in its launch at the MIT Museum in the autumn of 2018. The project comprises twenty sung lyrical narratives or songs that combine a variety of genres, as well as a journal that compiles narrative fragments, song lyrics, and images that disclose feelings, emotions, recollections, and associations. Numerous voices convey this information. I have endeavored to filter through a new visual language to convey the starkness of the interior world of human consciousness about scientific thought and information. I have attempted to reconstruct personal memories, experiences, and imagination to synthesize lyrical abstraction from scientific research or ideas. To reveal the layers of open configurations and the underlying references, connotations, parallels of thought, and re...
