2019年是Museum Of Modern and Contemporary Art MMCA成立50周年,恰逢一场正在进行的革命的百年诞辰:1919年4月11日朝鲜临时政府在上海成立。建筑与遗产。Unearthing Future连接了城市中心的户外空间,并为受委托的建筑师提供了一个反思首尔现代遗产的平台,同时强调了当今和未来城市生活面临的问题。Obra建筑事务所于2019年初接受委托,构思了Perpetual Spring Pavilion,从9月到2020年4月占据博物馆前院。配套的网站平台正在进行中。

The year 2019, the 50th anniversary of the Museum Of Modern and Contemporary Art MMCA, coincides with the centennial birth of an ongoing revolution: the establishment of the Korean Provisional Government in Shanghai April 11, 1919. Architecture and Heritage: Unearthing Future connects outdoor spaces at the heart of the city’s center and provides a platform for commissioned architects to reflect upon Seoul’s modern heritage while highlighting issues facing urban life today and the future. Obra Architects was commissioned in early 2019 and conceived of Perpetual Spring Pavilion to occupy the museum’s front courtyard from September to April 2020. The accompanying website platform is ongoing.

气候修正机。城市社区聚会的建筑原型 万年春亭作为一个独一无二的原型,展示了城市社区聚会的功能方面:一栋建筑作为人工控制的温室机器,以解决并引起人们对我们这个时代一个紧迫的全球问题:气候变化的关注。将形式和目的地与功能相结合,该馆被提议作为 “气候校正机”,是一个提高认识的平台,并邀请人们采取实际和虚拟的行动。

The Climate-Correcting Machine: Architectural Prototype of Urban Community Gathering The Perpetual Spring Pavilion serves as a one-of-a-kind prototype showcasing the functional aspects of urban community gathering: a building as an artificially-controlled greenhouse machine to address and bring attention to a pressing global issue of our time: climate change. Combining form and destination with function, the Pavilion is proposed as a “Climate-Correcting Machine,” a platform for awareness and an invitation to action, both physical and virtual.

Perpetual Stream,从博物馆大厅的摄像头可以看到Perpetual Spring的实时显示和视图,在首尔的实体开放时启动,尽管由于covid的原因,展馆内部提前对公众关闭,但存档的在线观看仍在继续,尽管庭院的开放公共空间使游客能够在其物理生命期间访问装置的外部,直到2020年4月被拆除。在恶劣天气的日子里,该馆提供了一个舒适的场所,是一个免费开放的场所,可用于各种公共用途,包括公开讲座、诗歌朗诵会、戏剧、音乐、舞蹈表演、各种讨论小组、读书会等。所有感兴趣的人都可以在网上报名,在博物馆开放时间内使用该空间,网址为www.perpetualspring.org。

Perpetual Stream, a real-time display and view of Perpetual Spring from the museum lobby cam, visible at www.perpetualspring.org, was launched upon the physical opening in Seoul, and archived viewing continues online despite the early closure of the pavilion interior to the public due to covid, although the open public space of the courtyard enabled visitors to the installation’s exterior throughout its physical life until it was dismantled in April of 2020. Offering a place of comfort during days of severe weather, the Pavilion is a free open access venue for a variety of public uses including public lectures, poetry readings, theater, music, dance performances, discussion groups of all kinds, book club sessions, etc. All who are interested are invited to sign up online to use the space during open museum hours at www.perpetualspring.org.

特邀嘉宾将就紧急的全球气候危机与真正的民主统治和普遍正义的不可能崛起的前景之间的交叉点相关问题进行讨论。永恒之春》是一个装置作品,希望将有利于社会进步变革的气候条件人为地延续到秋季和冬季,人为地创造出一种能够吸引人类互动、社区组织和思想辩论的天气:晴朗的天空、宜人的温度和丰富的花草。

Special guests are invited to talk about issues related to the intersection between the emergency global climate crisis and the prospects for the unlikely rise of authentic democratic rule and universal justice. Perpetual Spring is an installation that aspires to artificially perpetuate, into the fall and winter, the climatic conditions propitious to progressive social change, artificially creating the kind of weather that invites to human interaction, community organization, and the debate of ideas: clear skies, pleasant temperatures, and abundant flowering greenery.

于是,我们就可以通过机器的方式,试图同时预设、预设某种未来和否定未来。如果说盛行的经济体系为少数人的利益提供了许多人的努力的存储,那么机器则是对人类机构的赋能和替代,走向世界变成家。

And so it is by way of a machine that we can then attempt to prefigure both, some kind of future and its denial at the same time. If the prevalent economic system has provided storage of the efforts of the many for the benefit of the few, the machine is both empowerment and substitute of human agency towards the transformation of the world into a home.

那么,在即将到来的非人格化的人工智能城市中,预期的基本存在仍然是机器的存在,也就不足为奇了。整个现代性,尤其是建筑学中的现代运动的未实现的承诺是,我们终于获得了对生活时间的控制,摆脱了劳动的束缚,并有可能追求自我实现,最终尝试成为真正应该成为的人。机器是这种斗争中最主要的工具。

It should come as no surprise then, that the anticipated fundamental presence in the coming city of impersonalized artificial intelligence is still that of the machine. The unfulfilled promise of modernity in general, and of the Modern Movement in architecture in particular, is that of finally gaining control over the time of our lives, freedom from labor, and the possibility to pursue our self-realization and finally attempt to become who we really should have been. The machine is the preeminent tool in that struggle.

“长春 “既是具体的机器,也是抽象的机器,它是一个地方,在这里,非常真实的天气出错的参数可以被粗略地调整,既作为谦虚的例子,也作为象征性的仪式,同时也作为集体努力走向元技术的仓库,如果人们的机器的合法主人已经在执着于个人主义的固定中被没收–恐惧的解药,那么新的机器将通过大众的努力被发明出来,走向另一种技术。

Perpetual Spring is then intended as both concrete and the abstract machine, as a place where the very real parameters of weather gone awry can be rudimentarily tweaked both as modest example and proposed symbolic ritual, and as the repository collective efforts towards a meta-technology, if the rightful owner of people’s machines has been confiscated in obsessive fixation with individualism—the antidote for fear—, new machines shall be invented through a popular effort towards an alternative technology.
