Today’s magic as tomorrow’s innovation ? A somewhat forgotten, carelessly positioned ship anchor at the dock, suggests a deep significance for the site. It almost says everything that needs to be said about the people, objects and buildings; their history, transformation and future potential/direction. It's existence is testimony to the fact that this was historically a hub of intense economic activity, employment and growth. The fact that it now lays rusting, shows that ship-building/docking is abandoned/steadily-coming-to-an-end here and the nature of the 'economic' activity must change, both to 'merely sustain' the area; and obviously offer chances for growth. The RDM campus fills in with a most befitting business plan - Research/Design/Manufacture through industry-education partnerships. But in mere magnitude, it needs to expand; have more institutions and companies get involved, add start-ups, offer more space for them to take off once they're on their own. The anchor, metaphorically still retains its relevance, for such an enterprise will always need extensive transport. Within this context of a research oriented, technology driven, ‘futuristic’ set-up, one pushes its boundaries to the extreme to start looking at the parallel sciences (BioGeometry, Radiesthesia, Tarot, Acupuncture, Reiki, numerology, Parapsychology, Pyravastu, Music Therapy, Color Therapy, Witchcraft) as technology, science and innovation. This resonates deeply with Fritjof Capra’s writings on the parallels between mysticism (primarily eastern) and modern physics, and with some of my own intuitive beliefs on how everything in animate or inanimate nature; in material and immaterial existence can be explained on the basis of mathematical rules and physical principles. Because "what cannot be measured, is a limitation in our measurement" !  Such a project, since will always provoke a strong reaction, negative or positive and never remain unacknowledged, may be a great stimulant for the site's redevelopment.

'''STAGE 1'''
 
 
What exists is an abundance of water. Water as the strongest 'tangible' 'context' ! Building on water; water as a 'building material'? In the following states - solid(ice), liquid(water), Gaseous(steam)? Or water as a supportive element - Pneumatic Structures - Filler Fluid as water instead of Air/hydrogen et cetera ? Or water as an indirect element - Response to/Integration of the 'behaviour' of water - Vertical water currents, horizontal water currents ? Posiibly not a static 'form', but one that may construct and deconstruct itself temporally over various positions within the site - Possibly like a mechanism embedded which may 'freeze' and 'de-freeze' the 'building' ? That sounds outrageously un-sustainable though !
 
 
What are the problems encountered while building on/with water ? How can that be achieved in a more structurally optimal, cost effective and aesthetic way ? A 'biomechanical' application for reference ? A study of organisms/natural formations under water for deductions ?
 
 
The context - in terms of the building typology is not imposing(?). With an urban-rejuvination-objective, a 'stimulant' building; iconic, may be imagined. However, if the site is such that it affords some secrecy by virtue of some pre-existing activities having been abandoned, a new activity that needs some amount of seclusion; something to do with governance, intelligence, military resources may be considered ? Or partially so ? Or completely not ?
 
 
'''STAGE 2'''
 
 
A school of witchcraft ? This is hearsay, but I heard netherlands has the only legal school school of witchcraft. Needs validation...tone-it-down "museum" of witchcraft...occult sciences...tone it up ! The twist ?
 
 
Sinful but it will justify the "madness" of the building ! (Loud Thinking)
 
 
School of tarror, numerology, mathematical rules...expression of the mathematics of "cosmology", existance...will find an expression in the mathematics of nature, of biology, of biomechanics, of its rules...? Looks like the perfect metaphor !
 
 
tarrot*....
 
What about the more pragmatic direction of the site, of economics...the school ?
 
Occult sciences, of parasciences... AS A Direction for innovation, research ?
 
 
It is aalso the perfect "theme" for interactivity ! (Forgive my sins of outrageous-ness but I think there is something there !) The space will RESPOND ! React to numbers, etc etc all of that !
 
 
"THE TAO OF PHYSICS" !!!!!!!!!!!!! PERFECT METAPHOR !
 
 
AND ESCHER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ESCHER FOR THE SKETCHES TO BEGIN WITH !!!!!! IS PERFECT !
 
 
And Piranesi maybe ? Grotesque ? DERIVATIVES OF Medieval Islamic's crazzy mathematical expressions, of Gothic ? ALL THE WAY BACK TO AND FORWARD TO GAUDI ? Using all the new magic ? of Rhino and grasshopper and mathematica and bla bla bla !
 
 
Of swarms ... it will be a swarm, everchanging....but Eschers swarm, topological, variant, developing !
 
 
Of Deleuze... and of how Eastern mysticism and modern physics are paralleled, of the earth's telluric forces, of how a razor blade sharpens its edges when laid in a glass pyramid exposed to the moon or something... of HOW "DELEUZIAN" MATTER IS NOT AN INERT RECEPTACLE FOR FORM, BUT FORM MUST BE TEASED OUT OF IT !
 
 
Of magic and innovation, magic 'as' innovation, innovation 'as' magic, ... its the underlying coonotation of "negative" and "positive" somehow that differs...
 
 
When you want to 'rehabilitate/gravitate' people, this is great, because it will always (assumption) derive a strong reaction, negative or positive...it will be ACKNOWLEDGED !

[edit] Summary

Today’s magic as tomorrow’s innovation ? A somewhat forgotten, carelessly positioned ship anchor at the dock, suggests a deep significance for the site. It almost says everything that needs to be said about the people, objects and buildings; their history, transformation and future potential/direction. It's existence is testimony to the fact that this was historically a hub of intense economic activity, employment and growth. The fact that it now lays rusting, shows that ship-building/docking is abandoned/steadily-coming-to-an-end here and the nature of the 'economic' activity must change, both to 'merely sustain' the area; and obviously offer chances for growth. The RDM campus fills in with a most befitting business plan - Research/Design/Manufacture through industry-education partnerships. But in mere magnitude, it needs to expand; have more institutions and companies get involved, add start-ups, offer more space for them to take off once they're on their own. The anchor, metaphorically still retains its relevance, for such an enterprise will always need extensive transport. Within this context of a research oriented, technology driven, ‘futuristic’ set-up, one pushes its boundaries to the extreme to start looking at the parallel sciences (BioGeometry, Radiesthesia, Tarot, Acupuncture, Reiki, numerology, Parapsychology, Pyravastu, Music Therapy, Color Therapy, Witchcraft) as technology, science and innovation. This resonates deeply with Fritjof Capra’s writings on the parallels between mysticism (primarily eastern) and modern physics, and with some of my own intuitive beliefs on how everything in animate or inanimate nature; in material and immaterial existence can be explained on the basis of mathematical rules and physical principles. Because "what cannot be measured, is a limitation in our measurement" ! Such a project, since will always provoke a strong reaction, negative or positive and never remain unacknowledged, may be a great stimulant for the site's redevelopment.
