从1969年伍德斯托克音乐艺术节的历史场地上的树木中探出头来，Peak-A-Boo形成了一系列连续的木质复合拱门和甲板，形成一个亭子和灵活的表演空间。
Peeking out from among the trees on the historic grounds of the 1969 Woodstock Music and Art Fair, Peak-A-Boo takes shape as a continuous series of wood-laminate arches and decks which form a pavilion and flexible performance space.
该装置是自1969年伍德斯托克音乐节以来宾迪集市树林中的第一件可编程的基础设施，并标志着一个为期三年的试点计划的第二阶段的开始，以在该地发展一个标志性的艺术和建筑节。该项目由贝瑟尔森林艺术中心策划，旨在用设计-建造教学法重新接触这个历史遗迹，并由德克萨斯理工大学学生制作/安装，作为尼尔-卢卡斯-希奇和i/thee领导的暑期课程 “建筑IRL “的一部分。
The installation stands as the first piece of programmable infrastructure in the Bindy Bazaar woods since the 1969 Woodstock festival and marks the beginning of the second phase of a three-year pilot program to develop a signature art and architecture festival at the site. Curated by Bethel Woods Center for the Arts, the project was meant to reengage the historic site with design-build pedagogies and was fabricated/installed by Texas Tech University students as part of the summer course, Architecture IRL, led by Neal Lucas Hitch and i/thee.
设计过程开始于德克萨斯理工大学的场外，学生们在那里用按比例的材料手工制作各种 “绗缝 “的木质层板设计方案的模型。这些模型随后被转化为计算脚本，以便快速制作原型和分析。最终的设计由60多块四分之一英寸的胶合板组成，经弹性变形后层压在一起，形成一个像素化的弯曲活性结构。这个弯曲板的 “波浪 “然后由六个层压木材拱门补充，这些拱门是用数字方式建造的，以模仿木质护墙板的自然弯曲。
The design process started off-site at Texas Tech University, where students modeled various “quilted” wood-laminate design solutions by hand with scaled materials. These models were then translated into computational scripts that allowed for rapid prototyping and analysis. The final design consists of over sixty quarter-inch plywood sheets, elastically deformed and laminated together to form a pixelated bending-active structure. This “wave” of bent plates is then supplemented by six laminated timber arches digitally constructed to mimic the natural bending of the wood sheathing.
这个结构，从整体上看，是由学生在贝瑟尔森林艺术中心历史悠久的宾迪集市现场制作的–这是一个工艺品集市和市场，被用作1969年伍德斯托克音乐节的主要入口序列，自2017年以来一直在修复过程中。施工开始于手工切割180多件独特的作品，这些作品被胶水层压在一起，形成肋骨式的下部结构。
The structure, in its entirety, was fabricated by students on-site at Bethel Woods Center for the Arts in the historic Bindy Bazaar—a craft bazaar and marketplace used as the main entry sequence for the 1969 Woodstock festival that has been in the process of restoration since 2017. Construction started with the hand-cutting of over 180 unique pieces, which were glue-laminated together to form the ribbed substructure.
接下来，胶合板沿着层压的拱形构件用螺丝固定，并用铆钉捆绑在一起。从概念上讲，该项目旨在弥合模拟和数字生产模式之间的矛盾；该结构的设计使用了计算数字工具和分析，但主要是通过手工工具在现场建造。
Plywood sheets were next secured along the laminated arched members with screws and tied together with rivets. Conceptually, the project aims to bridge fraught binaries between analog and digital production modes; the structure was designed using computational digital tools and analyses but was constructed primarily by hand tools in-situ.
其结果是一个高耸的结构，像羽毛一样轻，但像木板一样硬，像木质瀑布或魔毯一样在树冠上层层叠叠。虽然它是在两周内建成的，但该结构被嵌入景观中–被森林植物遮蔽和刺穿–仿佛它从1969年起就在那里，等待着被重新发现。
The result is a soaring structure, light as a feather but stiff as a board, cascading through the tree canopy like a wooden waterfall or magic carpet. Though it was built over the course of two weeks, the structure is embedded within the landscape—shrouded and punctured by forest flora—as if it has been there since 1969, awaiting rediscovery.
最终，这个结构的理由在于它能够塑造多样化和舒适的体验：它的拱门为表演者创造了乐队的外壳；它的甲板成为观众的分层座位；像素化的表面为渗入森林夹层的舞影提供了一个起伏的画布。
Ultimately, the justification for the structure lies in its ability to shape diverse and comfortable experiences: its arches creating the bandshells for performers to play under; its decks becoming the tiered seating for audience members; the pixelated surface providing an undulating canvas for dancing shadows seeping through the forest clerestory.
