This research unit had a serious purpose: to identify what was the difference between architecture - which was defined by rational processes - and landscape - which was observed to be the result of stochastic processes.
Our challenge was to make a landscape through stochastic processes.
Studies of stochastic processes were made on paper as printed landscapes before making three dimensional objects. The printed landscapes are the equivalent of making maps.
