Independent work - Building the tunnel

We purchased materials from Bunnings warehouse: to build a life-size prototype of the Taranaki wharf tunnel.




Measured the width of the tunnel



We started off by estimating how high we wanted the prototype to be.
Build a frame out of conduit pipes.







Folding the frost cloth, we created a slide-in hole for the pipes to go in.



During that time, we didn't have access to a sewing machine, our only option was to use masking tape.


To keep the tunnel in place, we tied the bottom of each frame to the table legs using cable ties






No access to a 5meter ladder, we decided that the best way to prototype the projection onto the fabric was from the side.











Projection view from the inside we wanted to create an aquarium like experience.

Lantern Field was designed by a team of Virginia Tech students and faculty led by Aki Ishida, Assistant Professor of Architecture. Mulberry paper lanterns are suspended from an undulating grid of bamboo hung overhead. The sensors activate the shift in light hue and sound as people move through the loggia. Those who stay to actively explore the sound are rewarded by the appearance of deeper notes, which could also emerge in response to a general flurry of activity.
