from daucle@Atelier ClaudeveretT:
“Discard Space” refers to the total space occupied in the twelve hour timespan from eight in the morning when I leave HomeShop until eight in the evening when I return. At the same time it refers to the two week period in which Elaine W. Ho leaves Beijing, whereby if I had not entered HomeShop, it could be deemed as such “discard space”. During this period of time, the effective capacity of this space is zero. But it is a temporary space. Just as my residency within the space creates a use value for it, as it resolves the possibility of my residency elsewhere, this space is full of possibilities.
If we take such possibilities (without a violation of basic rights) and divide them temporally, then there exists a segmented but equally non-violable use of space, and these are what we call temp_spaces. To face the use value of temp_space signifies allowing its users to make such use of space and access the latent potential for communication and exchange made possible by the null space of office hours.
As such, within this two-week period we make a discussion of the time_plot_ratio of residency time (temp_space). My residency fulfills one part of this, but during office hours from Monday to Friday, there remains a “discard space”. We would like for the time_plot_ratio of HomeShop’s temp_space to achieve its greatest possible potential.
HomeShop is divided into two primary spaces, one which is used as a bedroom, the other as a studio. Because the bedroom serves as a private space in which personal articles are stored and the routines of personal hygiene are not usually shared, the general public does not usually have the possibility to enter the space. But with the studio space as temp_space, therefore, its use can be made open and shared under agreement of deed. This space with its open front facing the hutong alleyway and moveable screen can be made multifunctional (commercial, display, etc.). Users have the possibility to open space or close it by the moveable screen. Given the size parameters of the space and that which opens it onto the public street, the screen serves as a crucial determinant of the space.
temp_space x time_plot_ratio will take place from 8-11 December and 14-15 December at HomeShop from 8:00 until 20:00 .
In order to participate, please fill in the temp_space deed [download WORD doc or PDF] and send it by e-mail to claudeverett [at] gmail [dot] com or directly contact by phone at 13811418056.
There are no fees involved, the only requirement is that at the end of each day the space must be returned to the original condition when entered.

In the end we may discover, resolving space is not necessarily a return to something natural, but in fact a manner by which the rich man resolves the seat in his car. Resolving space may mean the new architecture that suddenly springs from the earth, or that’s the architect’s scheme, anyway. Space is a rich man, time is a poor man.
“home” is whoever stays in.
废弃空间指的是我从早上8点离开家作坊到晚上8点回来这中间的12小时内家作坊内部的所有空间。同时指在何颖雅离开北京的两个礼拜内,如果我没有住进去的话,家作坊内部的所有空间。在这段时间内,此空间的时间效应为0。但它是一种临时空间。正如我的入住使得两个礼拜的废弃空间得到了利用,并节约下了另外某处我可能入住的其他空间一样,它充满可能性。
如果把住宅的不可侵犯性进行时间划分,那么在某段时间内必然存在相对不那么不可侵犯的空间,这部分空间也被称为临时空间。对住宅内临时空间的使用意味着用单位空间的废弃时间段满足与他人潜在的交流与交换,同时节约出使用者在这段时间内原本使用的所有空间。
所以在这两个礼拜内,讨论住宅的时间容积率。将住宅建筑面积按时间计算,则
时间面积=建筑面积×24h;
时间使用面积=使用面积×使用时间;
从而有
时间容积率=时间使用面积/时间面积。
我的入住满足了一部分,而周一至周五白天的上班时间则使其再度变为废弃空间。我们来使家作坊的时间容积率达到最大。
家作坊的空间主要分为两个部分,一部分为卧室兼起居室,另一部分为工作室。将卧室空间作为完全私密空间,用于私人物品的储藏及出于个人卫生的不可共享,非主人允许的情况下不可进入。将工作室空间作为临时空间,主人不在时以契约的形式任意使用。对于面向胡同开放的功能(商业、展示等)通过可移动的帘子进行空间分割(阻挡视线与灰尘),形成门面;对于个人使用的功能可直接在室内进行或用帘子进行分割;如果空间大小允许,也存在部分空间向胡同开放,部分空间供室内使用的情况,用帘子进行分割。无人使用时则作为面向胡同邻居的公共空间。
只要您在白天的时候需要一个这样的空间,欢迎一切形式的介入。你可以利用它和这儿的胡同邻居交流,也可以将其变成完全封闭的个人场所。建筑的所有权在这段时间内完全自由交换,没有歧视,不分你我。
家作坊邀请您来玩!
临时空间的开放时间: 2009年12月8日-2009年12月11日,每天的早上8点至晚上8点
预订方式: 契约将在报名后收到,将契约填好 [下载 WORD 文件 或者 PDF] 并发至claudeverett [圈a] gmail [点] com等待回复或直接联系13811418056。对此空间的使用无需支付任何费用。

最后我们将发现,节约出来的空间并没有归还给自然,而是为富人节约出来了一个车位,或者是新的建筑拔地而起,这是建筑师的阴谋。空间属于富人,时间属于穷人。
