1 303Lsp15 Owens Lake Studio Project 2: Owens Lake Phase 9/10 Instructions \\ Springing into design before we even get to visit the site, we will develop strategies for dust control that break from the rigid tillage patterns and create a responsive field condition of trenches, berms, dimples, and other landforms. Clay study models are the primary means of design. From these models, we will produce a hand-drawn index of the palimpsests and changes. These drawings and models will be integrated with the P3 Eidetic Video for the presentation on 5/4. Part 1 \\ RESEACH Monday 4/10, you need to become experts about the pros and cons of the various dust control methods deployed on Owens Lake. So, collectively we will produce a presentation that evaluates and shares: A\\ A high-resolution aerial image of Owens Lake scaled at 1:5000 (about 1 foot = 1 mile). The finished print of Owens Lake will be +/- 16 x 8. Don t worry, north can be oriented sideways. B\\ Scaled drawing for Owens Lake with widths/areas for all major features, wetted areas, existing dust control infrastructure, ecological zones, property ownership/jurisdictions, C\\ Existing dust control strategies and methods used on Owens Lake to date, covering past implementation practices, materiality, water use, habitat creation, energy use, aesthetics, and other factors. D\\ Possible processes for creating a multifunctional terrain, explore available construction methods and tools, with physical parameters such as: Blade width Cutting/digging depth Carrying capacity Vehicle turning radius Speed and travel distance P2 Version 1.0: April 10, 2015 page 1

2 E\\ Wind and meteorological conditions responsible for dust emissions & physics of PM10 emission F\\ Ecological benefits provided by the re-watering & re-vegetation of Owens Lake via the dust control measures. Part 2 \\ TERRAIN PATTERNS Sculpted in modeling clay, create a series of studies that explore strategies to produce variations and complexity using simple repetition of landforms, and construction methods. Explore landforms patterns of dimples, dots, lines, dashes, waves, streams and pools of water, vegetation patterns P2 Version 1.0: April 10, 2015 page 2

Refer to Draft Environmental Impact Report for Phase 9/10 for dimensions and particulars for the chosen site.

7 Studio Safety & Cleaning [version 1.0] Prior to assigning a making project, the faculty member shall prepare and distribute an instruction sheet geared towards the assignment that provides directions on how to make, clean up, and ensure the exercise remains healthy and safe, i.e. requiring the wearing of protective clothing, masks, gloves, etc. The sheet shall also provide a clear explanation of any and all of the consequences of not adhering to the instructions, i.e. lowered grade in/failing the course, charges for clean-up, and referral to Judicial Affairs. The faculty member shall distribute the instruction sheet to students and go over it in class prior to their commencing work on the assignment. The Dean/Associate Dean, ENV s Instructional Safety Technician, and the Environmental Health and Safety Division are available to provide consultation. 1. Don t work alone with sharp, spinning, or hot tools have a safety buddy around. 2. Knife blades, saws, and drills can snap, wood can splinter, plastic can break, and metal shavings/saw dust can get in your eyes! USE EYE PROTECTION/SAFETY GOOGLES any time you are working with a material (or tool) that can splinter or fracture that means ALL THE TIME! 3. Dust from sanding/cutting can be toxic at worst, or just a respiratory nuisance, use an appropriate respirator/mask and work where there is plenty of ventilation to keep everybody healthy (behind building 2). 4. Utility/X-Acto/Olfa blades are very sharp! Use appropriate straight edges; make sure your fingers are to the side of the blade. 5. You will be charged for repairing any desktops that you damage by cutting on them without a cutting mat, or if you get paint/glue anywhere that isn t a paint booth! 6. Dull blades are even more dangerous than sharp ones, so change blades often. 7. Don t wear loose clothes, dangling jewelry, or head phones/ear buds when working with power tools these can all get snagged. 8. If you drop something heavy on your foot, do you really want to be wearing flip-flops or open toed shoes? 9. Don t rinse plaster or clay down the drains it will cause a clog and you will be charged for the repair costs. 9. You are most accident-prone when you are tired, distracted, or stressed so stay cool, calm, and collected with a good nights sleep. 10. If you don t know how to do something or what the risks might be, ASK! 11. Clean up your workspace, anytime you plan on stepping away for more than a few minutes. If you don't follow these rules in LA303L and end up hurting a classmate or damaging CPP property, you may fail the course and face sanctions by Judicial Affairs. THESE RULES WILL BE UPDATED AS NEEDED TO COVER ALL UNIVERSITY POLICIES. P2 Version 1.0: April 10, 2015 page 7
