AP183
Synopsis:
The Ulrich Königs Chemnitz Stadium project records, 1995-1996, document the competition entry and design for an innovative stadium in Chemnitz, Germany. The project was a collaboration between Peter Kulka, Ulrich Königs, Cecil Balmond, and Arup Group, Ltd. The design was primarily driven by the theoretical and methodological processes made possible by computer-aided design, rather than aesthetics. The project records have both digital and physical components, which chiefly include renderings, wireframe drawings, digital 3D models, photographs, slides, video, and a booklet.

AP148.S1.1970.PR02.001.1
Description:
The material in the next 7 files (AP148.S1.1970.PR02.001.1 through AP148.S1.1970.PR02.001.7) was contained together in a handmade folder titled "AI Storyboard". The material in this folder has been separated for preservation purposes, and the original folder has been retained. This file contains notes and sketches on the film idea, including the story, visuals, music and cinematography. Also includes clippings, both of which refer to imagery and ideas of an earth-moon highway or contest for a highway, as well as the first architectural competition in space ("Primo concorso di architettura nello spazio"). Also includes a small viewer of an Escher image.
