1/ After mixing our different concepts which was:
1- An impossible architecture and the link between interior and exterior
2- The impact of technology and the illusion which can become reality threw this technology
3- The transparency
After watching the movie " BRAZIL" and to introduce our projects we made a cartoon of a concept that we took from the film.
The idea was to illustrate our concept by using the technics of a cartoon in order to visualize our mind.
THE CARTOONS
So the exercise was about chosing a free concept from the film (not only about architecture), and after to develop this concept in architecture in order to create a story in this special architecture.
For our comics we look for Chris WARE, an artist making cartoons in specific architecture.
We decided to create a dystopic architecture inside an utopist architecture. To explain, in the movie the main character escape the dystopic reality by dreaming. So in his dreams, he is happy but he knows that he is dreaming and he is still alive in reality.
Then we decided to create an utopic architecture where we are happy but in reality we are stuck in in, so it becomes at this moment a dystopic architecture.

At many parts in the movie we can't really see if we are outside or inside. For exemple you can think that we are outside walking in a street but then, you notice that we are inside a building in a corridor. The main carater can open a door in order to go outside but when he walks out he is in an other room inside a building. It is quite difficult to know where we are sometimes, the architecture is not realistic.
This is what I wanted to show: impossible architecture.
So we walk into an architecture and we discover our surronding but when we keep walking into it, it becomes more and more complexe, the outside become the inside etc. At the end, we get lost in the architecture.

My concept is the idea of transparency,more pricisely the idea to see and to be seen. I choose this concept because we can see various type of glasses in the movie. We have the strong idea that they are no intimacy in this city.
So, in my comic i choose to developp the panopticon prison to accentuate the idea that anyone can watch . So people grow in the world without intamicy, always watching what the others do.
In the first sight, this is a ordinary life but when we step back we understand that is a surveillance system.

My concept is the notion of technology in architecture and how the constant progress of the
technology can affect architecture . We can see that, we live in a system where technology
have a gigantic impact in our lives. To show this impact, I made this comics to show how even
a person who lived in a poor neighborhood, and have a corridor for house, if he have this technology in his hand, even his corridor could become the place he would have dream of his
entire life. And this just by putting a pair of glasses, he could see the world of his dream and finish in his bed what he saw before he go to sleep.
Our model
We created three cubes, one for each of us. Those cubes represent our "houses". We are in a paradise area in our cubes, the walls are transparent we can see every where and also we can be seen.
We are far away from the reality, we are in our personal and private world: we are in our dream.
The Mobius Band aroubt it, is a structural feature in order to stabilize the whole structure. Three points surrounded by the Mobius Band.
