further ideas...



So after the tutorial, i came back to think about clearly defining what is public and private and like you said, i decided to change the screen room to be in the public building as well as the living room. What is left on the private building would be all the bedrooms and the bathrooms within them because if i move the bathroom to the public building, everything would be all cluttered in the public building as well as it does not make sense in terms of function for the owner of the house to have to walk to the other building to go to take a shower and then come back to their bedroom to dress up. Since i decided that the screen room for the camera obscura will be used as the camera obscura room and then the next sequence will be for the public to watch the film, i decided to move those film room to the second and the third floor in order for the public to interact more with the house. This will make it more interesting in terms of voyeurism since by this, the people who live in the house has the ability to spy on the public that intrudes their house as well rather than spying on themselves that obviously live in the house. For the first floor, they will see the image projected from the camera obscura. On the second floor, it is the film room for them to watch a scary film. the third floor would be for them to watch a comedy film. the storage room for films would be underground. By giving them different types of films to watch, the voyeurs can see the reaction of the public on those films when they do not know that they are being watched. The public would come in since those film rooms will allow the sound of the public out to the site to drag attention and give hints to people that they can actually come in. This matches how the public building is to show the behaviors of people as a public performance. So the screen room/ film room would be my public component.
