Timeframe

The module takes place over 6 weeks, from 2. May to 9. June 2023 from Tuesday to Friday, 9.00-17.00 - see timetable below for detailed hours and classrooms. Class sessions include lectures, discussions, mentoring sessions, in-class exercises, assignments and independent study blocks. Projects are conducted individually or in a team of three students at most.

Room

Usually, we will meet at ****. During the seminar we can also use the Praxis Poolraum in the Werkstatt Modellbau Projekte ZT 2.E20-UU.

Excursion

On ****, we will visit the Grüezi Garte of IAD Alumni Doris Greenway-Brunschweiler in Allenwinden next to Zug. Meeting point at 10:10 in Unterstock, 6319 Allenwinden or in the train from Zürich (departure 9:10 from HB) to Zug (IR70) or the bus from Zug to Allenwinden (No.1 departure 9:40). End of excursion in Allenwinden around 16:00.

Overview and Objectives

The module 'Spatial Interaction' challenges students to deepen their practical and conceptual knowledge of human interactions in their immediate surroundings. Starting from a location in Zurich where public life and „tamed nature“ overlap, students will develop spatio-technical frameworks for situated interactions. The student projects will connect people and environmental processes with the aim of investigating local impacts of urban (or everyday?) behaviour as well as long-distance effects of individual actions. They will learn how to interface the present mesocosm (collecting environmental data, identifying relationships) and how to anticipate/experiment with advanced techniques like remote sensing or machine vision. Designing in such situations requires the development of strategies for public outreach and communication as well as basic knowledge of intervening in complex systems. Students will work in groups and in a form of self-governed organization.
