Watercolor diagram of a minimal building structure between layered earth and cloud-like air, with 'AIR', 'EARTH', 'STRUCTURE' labels.

Watercolor diagram of a minimal building structure between layered earth and cloud-like air, with 'AIR', 'EARTH', 'STRUCTURE' labels.

Idea: Translate the experiment into a temporal or layered reading of space — earth as archive, time, memory. Method Options: Re-draw the section with sediment-like layering beneath the stilts (strata of textures, fading opacity, shifting tones). Create a series of sequential frames (like a mini animation strip): air space slowly filling with earth, or earth eroding away below. Abstract the exploded drawing into a diagram of relationships — earth ↔ air ↔ structure — emphasising what happens when one dominates. Focus: Earth not only as material but as temporal archive (layers accumulate or erode over time). Goal: Connect Ying-Lan’s “intersection of human and time” with Dunning’s material instability.
