Architecture today are being designed to embody and retain data and where information can be processed intelligently by these new built forms. In response to the theory of Machine in Architectural Thinking, technology today brings the impossible to a realised state to ensure we raise the bar of efficiency within the built environment.
In reference to an article of Crang M and Graham S, Sentient Cities..., here is a parody on embedding intelligence into buildings. The film is made to look as though the footage was taken decades ago when technology and architecture were two very distinct areas and were rarely cross-bred.
An intelligence generator falls from the sky [as oftentimes, unexplained phenomenon generally are conceived in such a way and which this concept would've posed at that time] to land within the grounds of the university. The generator 'zaps' the surrounding buildings with intelligence which then become alive and decide to join a larger city of intelligent buildings. In the final scene the generator collapses and explodes as it is drained of intelligence which is its energy source.
In this segment, several layers in after effects were composited to achieve this look; Much time was also spent to achieve the colours to make the footage look aged. The smoke/explosion colours still need much adjustmenst to blend it into the footage
here is another look at how a building is zapped. again several layers with masking were composited to achieve this. again much colour adjustment is needed especially when the windows glow with energy.
