== Clean water floats, stretched between piers ==

Looking at variations on site meant analyzing the qualities of items relevant to the project. By items the team means people, objects, buildings and projects. Analyzing positions within a relevant class of objects, the piers, provided the reason to intuitively migrate from the designated position, towards the centre of the doc. According to the new situation(new neighbors, new intentions, informed tags) it was possible to geometrically define improved connections. An area of movement, stretching from east to west was next determined. This involved fixed parameters (piers-adaptable connections to land) and dynamic unpredictable parameters (neighboring projects, people and other entities). All these positions, translated into geometry, describe an area where the project tag can comfortably move(this can change if input parameters are altered).

For now, the chosen location of VARIATIONS is the geometrical center of this area.

It is intended that the project becomes a medium in which local and foreign actors can engage one another through sports and leisure activities connected to the feature element of the site: water. Activities like swimming, bathing, skating will play an important role in a new community which will form around RDM. The projects we connect to have an opinion on what this community should become and how it can impact the area and Rotterdam.
