5. The Technocrat Retrofit of London
2 years ago
Official selection, onedotzero Terrain '09: onedotzero.com
The Technocrat Retrofit of London is a speculative architecture-fiction project, exploring the architectural opportunities afforded by a post-capitalist economy. It occurs circa 2050, and marks a return to the community driven sustainable way of living, with the help of technology. The stock market has crashed and the pound has moved into hyper-inflation. Banks are deserted. The mayor of London negotiates with a powerless central government to transform the square mile into a contained self-sufficient Technocratic state.
The resulting architecture is a series of inter-connected artifacts grafted on to the surface of existing buildings. These contain the equipment to allow the transformation of the defunct financial edifices into link centres for sustainable agriculture and production.

thanks!
For the 'blend-ins', i first experimented with scripts/effects/track mattes, but could never get the effect I wanted. I ended up painstakingly by masking frame-by frame. There are some bits where i copied the layer, reduced opacity and brought it forward a few frames to get a bit more movement, but its pretty much all hand-made!
