'''What?''' The project’s main function is to create an oasis where the individual or a small group of people can find a place to relax and escape from the hectic RDM site into a calm and tranquil 'natural' environment. This project focuses on the interaction between Humans, Virtual reality (through gaming) and Nature (through gardening). The idea is to make gardening more accessible to the City dwellers at the RDM, Rotterdam, the Netherlands and the world through gaming. Therefore a sense of ownership will be created through virtual interaction with the Digital Gardener.

The project’s main function is to create an oasis where the individual or a small group of people can find a place to relax and escape from the hectic RDM site into a calm and tranquil 'natural' environment. The project is designed in such a way to accommodate different group sizes of people, ranging from crowd to individual. These spaces are all open to the public, and the spaces will be chosen naturally according to the number of users.

These landscaped areas will not only serve as mere relaxation/entertainment areas. By including specific species of vegetation, grey water from the river is pumped up to the top, and gets filtered as it percolates down. This would create excessive clean water then the project actually needs, hence also supporting variations with clean water.

In researching about the site, it could be easily noticed that natural areas are very limited in the surrounding. We believe that there is the need for the people to cut off from the RDM and have a place which is easily accessible. Furthermore the idea of filtering the water further strengthens the need for such a project. With the introduction of the new additional projects, the demand for clean water will increase drastically.

'''How?''' Due to the limited space in the site, a condensed form of landscaping had to be designed. This concept materializes itself through the typology of an infinite park consisting of two intertwining spiral surfaces which gives the impression of two parallel infinite surfaces moving together; physically apart, yet constantly interacting with each other. Furthermore these two spiraling surfaces have the double function to filter the gray RDM waters (using a Phytodepuration system)for it to be used for the 'Variations' project. The demand for filtering water, strengthens the reasoning why a spiral surface was used.

In using such a geometric simple process, water will never get stagnant in certain areas but free to flow down and filter along the surface. This shape also helps in reducing additional weight on the structure due to trapped water on flat surfaces.

[edit] The Digital Gardener

author(s):Matthew Tanti, Susanne Hofer

[edit] WHAT? WHY? HOW?

What? The project’s main function is to create an oasis where the individual or a small group of people can find a place to relax and escape from the hectic RDM site into a calm and tranquil 'natural' environment. This project focuses on the interaction between Humans, Virtual reality (through gaming) and Nature (through gardening). The idea is to make gardening more accessible to the City dwellers at the RDM, Rotterdam, the Netherlands and the world through gaming. Therefore a sense of ownership will be created through virtual interaction with the Digital Gardener.

Why? The intentions of this project focuses on two levels; The RDM as its location and the technological and social context we are facing globally. "Children today know more brands and logos then birds or tree species", "there are more file patents then species in this planet" [[1]] NEXT NATURE - The history of interaction between the Biosphere and the Noosphere (Vernadsky, 1863-1945)

How? Due to the limited space in the site, a condensed form of landscaping had to be designed. This concept materializes itself through the typology of an infinite park consisting of two intertwining spiral surfaces which gives the impression of two parallel infinite surfaces moving together; physically apart, yet constantly interacting with each other. Furthermore these two spiraling surfaces have the double function to filter the gray RDM waters (using a Phytodepuration system)for it to be used for the 'Variations' project. The demand for filtering water, strengthens the reasoning why a spiral surface was used. In using such a geometric simple process, water will never get stagnant in certain areas but free to flow down and filter along the surface. This shape also helps in reducing additional weight on the structure due to trapped water on flat surfaces.

WHAT IS NATURE!?

One might ask one's self; What is the natural and what is the man made? We have modified the environmental around us so much that this boundary is increasingly being blurred? This concept's purpose is to make us rethink the division and interaction between these two notions.
