DEVELOPMENT 1 : UNDERSTAND THE MEANING
Before i started with the project KISSING ARCHITECTURE INSTALLATION, I have to be clear with the meaning of the word EROTIC in my own views.
For me I think Erotic is a kind of how to conveys feeling and Kiss is the expression of the feeling. Therefore I try to study deeper on expression and emotion.
EMOTIONAL : The expression of the feeling to let audience understand
 |
| Expression of emotional |
Every living thing got emotional and they can expressed it out through their movement. I view architecture building as one living organism therefore it can express the emotional as well. Therefore I started to think about my installation which I want to expressed the feeling of architecture building. The diagram above shows how human can express the feeling compare to the surface. How amazing that just one or two lines/elements can also create emotion or meaning on empty surface. And to let audience understand these are not hard, as they can see, hear, smell, or taste.
 |
| Different sense of recognized |
Even thought it is the same message, but when it use different sense to recognized and different thought of people, the meaning of the message could be alter, hard to understand and also confuse. This could be related to the concept of Matthew Barney which he use symbolic to represent and different though of views.
DEVELOPMENT 2 : INSPIRATION AND ARTISTS
I was so interested with El Anatsui project "Gravity and Grace" which he used the idea of illusion picture to let the audience misunderstand at the first. His work was so lively with a lot of meaning in it. Before I started to think about this Erotic installation, something in my bathroom which i had been ignored for a long time had attracted me. The Fungus and its bad and dirty appearance which made me strongly feel uncomfortable, dirty and digusting.

| Inspiration of forgotten space as time change |
FORGOTTEN SPACE
It was the area that got ignored and by the time pass, it got destroyed. The smell of wet and and damp make me realized. Now it is already been broken and really hard to fix.
EYE ILLUSION
Look from far, it is hard to know that what is the black color was. As a big picture it is still beautiful. But when look closer and closer, the details appears. now you can feel dirty, disgusting, unhealthy and don't want to touch it. From my view it is like the space is trying to express feeling to the user and said that it needs repair and care. I think this is also erotic as it give very strong sense of emotional.

Look fluid but actually it is solid, when look even closer, it become
like small particle connect to one another.
DEVELOPMENT 3 : SITE ANALYSIS
I tried to search for the site that totally got ignored by the students and then I found this neglected space on level 4 near INDA studio.
This is the analysis of the site explain why it is called forgotten space. As the surrounding area are very functional and used by architecture students but that forgotten space doesn't have any interaction with others at all. I pick this site as it could perfectly fit my idea of neglected.
This plan, section and elevation of the site demonstrate more about the understanding and the dimension of the site which is very useful to know and start up the idea.
DEVELOPMENT 4 : INSTALLATION IDEAS
- Idea 1 express emotional
- Idea 2 imaginary of the first sense with out visual
- Idea 3 The power of kissing
- Idea 4 Visual sense - look dirty and disgusting
The installation is trying to express the feeling of the site as it has been forgotten and ignore by architecture students and people. It express the saddest, anger, revenge thought the symbolism and metaphor like Matthew Barney, but however by using different sense the message can be alter by people imaginary and background thought.
The relationship between two objects can create new elements like when the water touch the air, they can produce fungus and damp. I think this gives strong feeling about erotic in the way of kiss. How water enthusiastic to come out from the building to reach air like 2 organism want to meet.

| Diagram explain about the idea of production |
Use the idea of Matthew Barney about the Symbolism and it could conveys different meaning as different views. The sense getting more emotional s its reveals more story like the concept of El Anatsui; get closer you can see the small particle bit that make the whole work.
At first I want to make the installation which is touchable, gives real sense but however I want it to be hard to recognized at the first. Therefore I desire to use projector to make animation as my medium.
DEVELOPMENT 5 : GET START
This is the first experiment that I try to make the animation for the projector. I tried to find the best position to set the projector and allow the projection to be at the right position. After that I used flash to mark the spot and boundary of the site. This would be make the animation show on the right position and angle.
After that I try to add each element on to create the story continuously and make the most effect out of it.
