Interim Presentation

The critique I received on Tuesday included: changing my floor to ceiling heights from 2.6 to 3m, tighening up the married and barrier free units (and taking advantage of my setback so more light enters the barrier free unit). I also need to further develop my HVAC system and expand my basement level. Also, my third space needs to tie into the DMZ more. Other than that, more than half of the technical issues that Danielle posted were said during my crit (I went first), so I need to look into those.

DMZ Visit

Today Section ONE had a great opportunity to get a tour of the DMZ at Ryerson University.
We were fortunate to have not only toured the facility but also get one on one sessions with two great organizations in the DMZ, ARB Labs and TAD (Tactile Audio Displays).  Here are a few highlights of Section ONE experiencing the facility.

Main DMZ Work Level

B2 Level of the DMZ

Digital Media Zone

Section ONE will be visiting the Digital Media Zone on Wednesday, February 6th in two groups in order to prevent huge congestion and distract the workplace environment.  All students will be in studio on Wednesday at 10AM for a briefing.

The groups are as follows:

Group ONE
Ailsa, Danielle, Ariel, Gary, Ray, Luke, Jay

Group TWO
Aris, Kate, Hovag, Soroush, Mahan, Steven, Demitri

As a reminder, students are to come with appropriate questions that would help fulfill development of design strategies as they proceed into their final project. The DMZ is more than simply a workspace and as students develop their programming in the main level(s) it is important to investigate what goes on beyond workstations. Activities such as beta testing, networking events, and high profile visits are just a few of the notable things that go on in the DMZ. Bring questions along with your cameras!
