Transformational sequence- a procedure (ex: plan and section drawings)
- compression and rotation--primary pathway through the garden, direct
- insertion; the message--fantasy/imagination
- transference; emotion--cupid fountain, romantic
- variation; instance of change--four seasons, (background sheds light) transitioning to the next season
- repetitions--pathways, the distances
- inversions; position of objects in a sequence--the Cupid's fountain at the main entrance, welcoming, resembles love
- dissolution; parts--fantasy (gates), romance (Cupid's fountain), imagination (four seasons), competition (villa)
- differ by dimension, while maintaining similar geometrical form
- increase complexity
- time sequence
- organized around a thematic structure, a series of variations around a limited number of elements that play a role of the fundamental theme: the paradigm ---structure: villa, elements: fountain, theme: romance/fantasy/imagination
Villa Carlotta at Lake Como is an example of a closed sequence, goes through a process and repeats
Form and Function--form is symmetrical horizontally but not vertically, but the way the pathways function, it hides the lack in symmetry
Programs:
those that...
- indifferent to the spatial sequence--chapel and the kitchen
- reinforce it--
- work obliquely or against it
Sometimes contradict each other.
As sequence of events do not depend on spatial sequences, and vice versa, both can form independent systems, with their own implicit schemes of parts...
SEM- space, event, movement
Cinema--temporary flashbacks, dissolves
Contracted sequence--see the beginning of a use in space followed immediately by the beginning of another in a further space
Frames: the moments of the sequence. Examining architecture 'frame by frame,' as through a film-editing machine
