This exquisitely detailed project defines itself as an independent object to the viewer yet its largely mute formal expression is entirely dependent on the surrounding context to form an identity. The podium's placement along one edge of a under utilized plaza and separating the plaza from a circulation path along the canal energizes this small building, giving its significance as a urban theater strength.

This is an architecture of the ordinary rather than the singular. It is of the urban field, yet it influences that field without dominating it. Too often architecture is about the singular building meant to dominate its surroundings or an ordinary that is purely banal. This small building is neither.

It is beautiful, yet mute. Dynamic in its spatial arrangement, yet symmetric and static in form.

I am a fan.

The Descriptive Camera works a lot like a regular camera—point it at subject and press the shutter button to capture the scene. However, instead of producing an image, this prototype outputs a text description of the scene. Modern digital cameras capture gobs of parsable metadata about photos such as the camera's settings, the location of the photo, the date, and time, but they don't output any information about the content of the photo. The Descriptive Camera only outputs the metadata about the content.
