The Dynamics of Physical Ambiences (2007)
article⁄The Dynamics of Physical Ambiences (2007)
abstract⁄This research proposes to support the reading of physical ambiences by the development of a representational technique which compiles, in a numerical interface, two types of data sensory and filmic. These data are recorded through the use of a portable array equipped with sensors Potvin 1997, 2002, 2004 as well as the acquisition of Video information of the moving environment. The compilation of information is carried out through a multimedia approach, by means of a program converting the environmental data into dynamic diagrams, as well as the creation of an interactive interface allowing a possible diffusion on the Web. This technique, named APMAPVideo, makes it possible to read out simultaneously spatial and environmental diversity. It is demonstrated through surveys taken at various seasons and time of the day at the new Caisse de depot et de placement headquarters in Montreal which is also the corpus for a SSHRC Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council research grant on Environmental Adaptability in Architecture Potvin et al. 20032007. This case study shows that the technique can prove of great relevance for POEs Post Occupancy Evaluation as well as for assistance in a new design project.
