We have 192 pages to describe 210 days of 24-hour production.
Dimensions aims to capture what drives the school. Forces that move through and pull ideas along with them; moments of intensity that affect both our work and us as students. What makes us excited. What makes us uncomfortable. What makes us stop and think. Like a cold shot of whiskey, Dimensions forces one to pause and notice what buzzes. When people ask what TCAUP is about, we offer this publication—in short: 'it is all this at once.'
Throughout the year, visiting lecturers fly through and deposit new ideas, while annual fellows come and stay; both cause ripples that reverberate throughout the school. And we read—a lot. Books fall in and out of fashion, crowding our desks where they begin to proliferate. Ideas from the outside virally grow through the pores of our studio walls and influence what we do.
There are the projects, and furthermore there are those bursts of energy that emerge: MiSo, conversations about the perimeter, international travel studios. In the end however, it remains the studio work that most clearly defines who we are and the direction in which we head.
