The projects on view reframe self-storage as a civic architectural typology, asking what happens when storage is made visible, legible, and public. Rather than treating storage as a purely private utility, the students imagine it as a spatial, cultural, and urban instrument \u2014 one that negotiates tensions between accumulation and access, privacy and exposure, memory and value.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EEach project proposes a large-scale architectural intervention sited in Atlanta, hybridizing storage with public programs such as archives, exhibition spaces, markets, libraries, and civic platforms. In many of the proposals, the fa\u00e7ade becomes a critical interface: not a neutral envelope, but an active mediator between the hidden logics of storage and the public realm. Through sectional cuts, porous skins, and performative envelopes, storage is exposed, curated, and staged.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe physical exhibition pairs meticulously crafted models with drawings and digital media displayed across the IMZ\u2019s integrated screens. Visitors encounter not only formal explorations, but also arguments about time, care, and surplus embedded in architectural form. Storage is revealed as an architecture of deferral \u2014 spaces designed to hold things temporarily, often indefinitely \u2014 and as a system that reflects broader social and economic conditions.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWhat distinguishes the exhibition is its insistence that storage is never neutral. The projects collectively argue that storage participates in shaping civic life, even when it claims not to. By making storage exhibitionist, the work proposes architecture as a tool for rethinking how societies manage excess, visibility, and value.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ESituated within the Georgia Tech Library, the exhibition benefits from its setting.

Along with the potential of the readymade, there is also an interest in the potential of process.

Like Stovall, she started her craft when she was six at the urging of her parents. Wirian\u0026rsquo;s high school made it mandatory that every student take a music class, but piano wasn\u0026rsquo;t offered.

His works are often made of steel and wood, though he has worked more in plaster that is then cast in bronze in his later years.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EAmong many awards, in 2010 Tucker received the International Sculpture Center\u0026#39;s Lifetime Achievement in Contemporary Sculpture Award.

Through the use of robotics, the interactive\u0026nbsp;aspect of the instrument is made physical and visible. The metaphor for this instrument\u0026nbsp;is a rib cage (3D printed plastic ribs) with spines (aluminum bars) and a heart\u0026nbsp;(solenoid and red LED). The human musician performs on the 3D printed rib cage as well as the\u0026nbsp;aluminum bars while the robotic component hits the aluminum bars. The human\u0026rsquo;s\u0026nbsp;performance on the instrument affects how the robotic components interact, and\u0026nbsp;this robotic interaction is intended to affect and inspire the performer. The\u0026nbsp;instrument is designed for performing experimental percussive music as well as\u0026nbsp;drone and noise music.

When the heat is removed, these illusions of flexibility are frozen, and on one level, the sculpture becomes a documentation of those forces used in the process. It is my intent that these sculptures communicate a sense of continuance, as if each piece is a single frame taken from a film, appearing to be at rest before moving on.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThis method of making art offers a number of creative options for me as a sculptor. The variables of heat intensity, size and shape of the raw material produce a wide range of results; from the quiet simplicity of a single pipe bend to the rhythmic complexity that emerges from folding a section of structural steel.

The interlocking coils of steel create a dynamic energy drawing viewers into the work while safely providing sections to sit, lean or stand on. The sculptures\u2019 open, curvilinear forms and movement of line create varying perspectives of space. Viewers are provided a fresh look from all approaches while cultivating a unique and ongoing dialogue with the surrounding architectural and\/or pastoral landscape. As highly visible works of art situated in prominent locations, my sculptures offer multiple functions; serving as locations for quiet reflection, landmarks and social meeting places, and opportunities for spatial investigation.

Starting this week in that central campus location, students, faculty and staff alike will discover a new source of inspiration thanks to School of Architecture Assistant Professor Volkan Alkanoglu\u2019s latest project.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp class=\u0022BasicParagraph\u0022\u003EJetson, so named for it\u2019s futuristic appearance, is fabricated out of 1,276 unique water jet cut and pre-painted aluminium components, which are connected by over 14,000 stainless steel rivets.\u0026nbsp; Assembled like a large three-dimensional puzzle, the design forms an elegant, soft and dynamic volume. \u0026nbsp;The individually cut and rolled 0.25 millimeter \u0026nbsp;aluminum pieces form a continuously overlapping network of scales with dependence on each other. This multi-connectivity generates tremendous structural stiffness while still being exceptionally lightweight\u0026nbsp;\u2014 as big as it is, it only weighs roughly 110 pounds!\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp class=\u0022BasicParagraph\u0022\u003EThe project builds on Alkanoglu\u2019s research on lightweight surface structures and the fabrication of complex geometries. Because the existing wall and balustrades in the Clough atrium are only able to hold a limited weight, the project team had to think creatively in order to hang it. Their solution was to construct it of painted and anodized aluminium and suspend it using eight pulleys and stainless steel cables. All of the fabrication was done in the College of Architecture\u2019s Digital Fabrication Lab.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp class=\u0022BasicParagraph\u0022\u003EThe suspension, masterminded by Alkanoglu\u2019s colleague Professor Russell Gentry, achieves both aesthetic and pragmatic objectives. \u0026nbsp;Jetson had to be connected to the building but the team wanted to achieve an appearance of an independent object floating freely in space. From the fundamentals of three-dimensional equilibrium, suspending the piece from more than three cables meant that the load in the cables is a function of the sculpture\u2019s stiffness and mass\u0026nbsp;\u2014 but the team didn\u2019t want the redundant cables to be slack. Therefore, a series of counterweights were used to keep the cables taught, and also to limit the forces in any one cable, so that the thin-wall structure is protected.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWhile Jetson\u2019s time in Clough will be limited, the project team hopes that it will serve as inspiration for all while it\u2019s there. And, although it\u2019s not outwardly evident, it is clear in the design that Jetson is meant to fly. It is the hope of Alkanoglu and his team that Jetson will fly one day, thanks to engineers from Georgia Tech!\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E \u003Cstrong\u003EProject Team:\u003C\/strong\u003E Volkan Alkanoglu, Russell Gentry, Ainsley McMaster, Derin Yilmaz, Jessica Greenstein\u003Cbr \/\u003E \u003Cstrong\u003EInstallation and Fabrication Team:\u003C\/strong\u003E David Moore, Heather Potts, Patricia Samartzis, Elpida Peponis, Annie Jenkins, Julie Echeverri, Ishrat Lopa, Alex Gillette, Son Vu Grace Reed, Abigail Smith, Sayuj Srivastava \u003Cbr \/\u003E \u003Cstrong\u003EConsultants:\u003C\/strong\u003E Dr. Lauren Stewart\u0026nbsp;\u2014 Computational Modeling \/ High Performance Computing, Jake Tompkins\u0026nbsp;\u2014 Digital Fabrication\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ETo learn more about Volkan Alkanoglu\u2019s work and research, visit his website at: \u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/www.alkanoglu.com\u0022\u003Ewww.alkanoglu.com\u003C\/a\u003E.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EA new piece of public art created by School of Architecture faculty and students installed in Clough Commons\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"A new piece of public art created by School of Architecture faculty and students installed in Clough Commons"}],"uid":"27814","created_gmt":"2015-03-26 15:03:21","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 03:03:00","author":"Lisa Herrmann","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","dateline":{"date":"2015-03-26T00:00:00-04:00","iso_date":"2015-03-26T00:00:00-04:00","tz":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"391141":{"id":"391141","type":"image","title":"Jetson in Clough","body":null,"created":"1449246312","gmt_created":"2015-12-04 16:25:12","changed":"1475894403","gmt_changed":"2016-10-08 02:40:03","alt":"Jetson in Clough","file":{"fid":"75543","name":"volkan_alkanoglu_02.jpeg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/volkan_alkanoglu_02.jpeg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/volkan_alkanoglu_02.jpeg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":4885233,"path_740":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/volkan_alkanoglu_02.jpeg?itok=lM0hNNVU"}},"169741":{"id":"169741","type":"image","title":"Volkan Alkonoglu","body":null,"created":"1449178978","gmt_created":"2015-12-03 21:42:58","changed":"1475894809","gmt_changed":"2016-10-08 02:46:49","alt":"Volkan Alkonoglu","file":{"fid":"195681","name":"volkan_new.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/volkan_new_0.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/volkan_new_0.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":5857,"path_740":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/volkan_new_0.jpg?itok=MwugS4or"}}},"media_ids":["391141","169741"],"groups":[{"id":"145331","name":"Georgia Tech Arts"}],"categories":[{"id":"129","name":"Institute and Campus"},{"id":"137","name":"Architecture"},{"id":"42891","name":"Georgia Tech Arts"}],"keywords":[{"id":"14657","name":"digital fabrication lab"},{"id":"10403","name":"russell gentry"},{"id":"167177","name":"School of Architecture"},{"id":"122661","name":"Volkan Alkanoglu"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[{"id":"71871","name":"Campus and Community"}],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":["lisa.herrmann@coa.gatech.edu"],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"377781":{"#nid":"377781","#data":{"type":"news","title":"Creative Loafing Names Jonah Bokaer February\u0027s #1 Arts Event","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ECreative Loafing\u0027s Andrew Alexander has named Jonah Bokaer\u0027s upcoming \u003Cem\u003EWhy Patterns\u003C\/em\u003E and \u003Cem\u003ERecess\u003C\/em\u003E\u0026nbsp;performance the top art event in Atlanta for February.
