Carnegie Mellon - Architecture - Fall 2021, Sensorimotor Workshop

Instructor: Tommy Yang and Brian McGrath

The ongoing evolution of using design as a tool of agency and building diplomacy is ever more relevant in an age where the world has thrust our bodies front and center. This workshop will explore how the neighborhood’s local strip becomes a contact zone between day-to-day rituals like cooking, eating, making, and selling as well as a common ground for products and services.

This two-day workshop will explore technical tools in big data, mapping, cinematography, and modeling with students to co-create a weekend exploration in cinametrics and spatialized ethnography by unpacking how Murray’s Avenue becomes an intersection around care.
