CNC Milling Bits For Rent

If any one is interested in using the CNC milling machine for the construction of their project, I am offering my rather expensive bits for rental use. This is something that could save you time and money during these last couple of weeks...

See me for prices..

Midterm Presentation Requirements

Powerpoint Presentation to include:

-site plans with their overall strategies
-plan diagram w new proposed programs
-diagrams of continuity with larger Bayfront paths (proposed integration w Bicentennial Park waterfront circuits)
-sections addressing relationship w existing structures and "land/water" interface
-massing strategy, focusing on the "preparation of the ground" as infrastructure to receive architecture components
-movement circuits, diagrams of different speeds of experience of the project (running, walking, sports areas and path networks to join -internally as well as to join w existing main arteries and streets)
-summary of exercise 1 maya techniques as well as natural/artificial lines of research updated
-deployment of architecture components/masses as systems within their strategies
-3d perspectives and geometric mainframe
-"ambiance" renders w people, sensations, envisioned scenarios of use

Ps. -Some of you are doing network, rhythm, and pattern studies.... This must be included as well and should be strategically presented as studies which inform... (form, movement, circulation, program, sensibilities, etc) You have to make the argument and the connection.
--In respect to renderings, now that I've given you all a variety of tools and techniques for rendering. It is expected that you all practice them. Which means, typical maya software renders will NOT cut it. We should expect to see: Vector render overlay on Occlusion renders, Section Perspectives, and the use of Ramp Shaders.
