the aim of this workshop was to visit a site (in this case Goldstein Hall, about halfway up campus) and then transcribe our experience (in pairs) into a tangible 3D "object". my partner and I noticed that the repetition of the columns in the space could be metaphorically interpreted as representing the memories and cumulative experiences of the students who pass through the space, so our final object was a sort of pop-up book (a playful representation of nostalgia and memory) that, when opened, presents just a vague drawing of the space; but then as you flip through the pages the columns pop up and build up a vivid image of the space; just as time spent at the space would help to give one a greater understanding of life itself (isn't this the purpose of university?)
