WORK Porosity Research Porosity Research refers to an area of my studio research encompassing public and studio practices which relate to my use of public art to test the functional boundaries of built form. This work embraces the art practices of performance, installation, film and urban infrastructure as ways to research, explore and stimulate a revision of public space in the city. Australian Research Council Research This thesis is in part based upon the outcomes of research I completed with the aid of an ‘ARC Discovery Grant’1 between 2003 and 2005. This research investigated methodologies with which to survey and redefine public space within the city and its outcomes provide a research foundation for this thesis. DESCRIPTION OF STUDIO WORK Porosity Games The Porosity Games (2005-2006) are three performances or art actions which were developed as part of this thesis to be enacted live, within the Sydney CBD during 2005 - 2006.

  • Airport OLS Penetrations by Existing and Planned Structures in the Sydney and Brisbane CBD
    1 Airport OLS Penetrations by Existing and Planned Structures in the Sydney and Brisbane CBD It is crucial that the safety implications arising from the recent incidents involving a Qantas airbus A380 following take-off at Singapore airport on the 4th of November, 2010 and a B747 departing the same airport two days later are fully appreciated by governments at all levels. Although the problems were serious enough, they could have been a lot worse and could well have occurred at Brisbane or Sydney airports. To further illustrate what happened to the A380, the following interim list of 18 items damaged by the exploding engine was released to the media on the 11/11/2010. 1.Massive fuel leak in the left mid fuel tank (there are 11 tanks, including in the horizontal stabiliser on the tail); 2.Massive fuel leak in the left inner fuel tank; 3. A hole on the flap fairing big enough to climb through; 4 The aft gallery in the fuel system failed, preventing many fuel transfer functions; 5 Problem jettisoning fuel; 6 Massive hole in the upper wingsurface; 7 Partial failure of leading edge slats; 8 Partial failure of speed brakes/groundspoilers; 9 Shrapnel damage to the flaps; 10 Total loss of all hydraulic fluid in one of the jet'stwo systems; 11 Manual extension of landing gear; 12 Loss of one generator and associatedsystems; 13 Loss of brake anti-skid system; 14 No.1 engine could not be shut down in theusual way after landing because of major damage to systems; 15 No.1 engine could not beshut down using the fire switch, which meant fire extinguishers would not work on thatengine; 16 ECAM (electronic centralised aircraft monitor) warnings about the major fuelimbalance (because of fuel leaks on left side) could not be fixed with cross-feeding; 17 Fuelwas trapped in the trim tank (in the tail) creating a balance problem for landing; 18 Left wingforward spar penetrated by debris With so much damage to the aircraft, it’s clear that all on board were extremely lucky.

  • Urban Design in Central Sydney 1945–2002: Laissez-Faire and Discretionary Traditions in the Accidental City John Punter
    Progress in Planning 63 (2005) 11–160 www.elsevier.com/locate/pplann Urban design in central Sydney 1945–2002: Laissez-Faire and discretionary traditions in the accidental city John Punter School of City and Regional Planning, Cardiff University, Cardiff CF10 3WA, UK Abstract This paper explores the laissez faire and discretionary traditions adopted for development control in Central Sydney over the last half century. It focuses upon the design dimension of control, and the transition from a largely design agnostic system up until 1988, to the serious pursuit of design excellence by 2000. Six eras of design/development control are identified, consistent with particular market conditions of boom and bust, and with particular political regimes at State and City levels. The constant tensions between State Government and City Council, and the interventions of state advisory committees and development agencies, Tribunals and Courts are explored as the pursuit of design quality moved from being a perceived barrier to economic growth to a pre-requisite for global competitiveness in the pursuit of international investment and tourism. These tensions have given rise to the description of Central Sydney as ‘the Accidental City’. By contrast, the objective of current policy is to consistently achieve ‘the well-mannered and iconic’ in architecture and urban design. Beginning with the regulation of building height by the State in 1912, the Council’s development approval powers have been severely curtailed by State committees and development agencies, by two suspensions of the Council, and more recently (1989) by the establishment of a joint State- Council committee to assess major development applications.

  • SYDNEY CBD OFFICE Market Overview
    RESEARCH APRIL 2011 SYDNEY CBD OFFICE Market Overview HIGHLIGHTS • Many landlords took the opportunity to complete refurbishment programs on vacant buildings over 2010 in an effort to reposition the asset and boost market appeal. In contrast the majority of space coming online in 2011 and 2012 are new developments which have been underpinned by major tenant commitments and equity injections. Recent confidence about future take-up has also led to many developers/owners reigniting development pipelines in an effort to continue to grow their prime portfolios into the future. • Face rents in the CBD have stabilised, with some modest growth recorded in select assets over the past six months. Incentives have begun to contract, in particular for Premium assets and should retract sharply once tenant demand gains momentum and the excess vacant space is absorbed. Average prime gross effective rents are projected to grow by 10% per annum over the next three years, returning to their peak (mid 2008) levels by mid 2013. • Investor interest increased from late 2009 and continued throughout 2010 with $1.9 billion worth of transactions transpiring over the year to January 2011.
