The first introductory task is to interpret and translate our understanding of the Unit13 presentation given by Eric and Claudia on the opening day of Unit System Africa 2016 in any medium.
I understood the idea of Frontiers as referring to uncharted territory, an undiscovered field of knowledge or anything inviting exploration.
In this discussion, the Frontiers we face relate to the current and rapidly transforming environment and society that we find ourselves operating in as (aspirant) architects.
With this frontier, come the frontiers of what the actions and roles of the architect are, or are to be, in responding and adapting to this complex setting, considering the idea of a collective intelligence as an important part a progression in praxis to be explored.
This montage is an attempt to represent these frontiers.
These thoughts call for a critical consideration of the various Frontiers of the self, others, the performance etc... which will be explored through the various projects of the year and eventually the Major Design Project.
