DR1974:0002:017:001-060
Description:
- This album contains plans, elevations and sections as well as written documents - the contract, specifications, work logs, letters and financial records - for the Hippodrome national, Paris. Most of the drawings and documents date from 1845, when the Hippodrome national was constructed, including the contract and contract drawings (DR1974:0002:017:025 and DR1974:0002:017:027 - DR1974:0002:017:031), a description and cost estimate, structural drawings, and plans, sections and elevations, some coloured, showing the various elements of the design. The construction of the building is documented by two work logs, one of which is probably a draft (work log: DR1974:0002:017:017:001-027; draft work log: DR1974:0002:017:044:001-038). The building was designed in the Islamic Revival style. It was constructed primarily of painted canvas stretched on frames and attached to the structural framework (Dupavillion, 81). Several preliminary drawings for the Hippodrome national are included: an elevation and plan dated 1844 and a pencil rendering of an elaborate Moorish façade, probably alternate designs (DR1974:0002:017:004, DR1974:0002:017:026, and DR1974:0002:017:060), and a watercolour perspective view, plan and section (DR1974:0002:017:001 - DR1974:0002:017:003), possibly for a different site, dated February 1845. Four drawings dated February 1846 are for additions to the hippodrome, including a portico on the front of the princes' pavilion, and a pedestrian bridge over the service court entrance (DR1974:0002:017:011, DR1974:0002:017:012, DR1974:0002:017:016 and DR1974:0002:017:037). Plan DR1974:0002:017:015 is probably also related to these additions. It has not been determined if these additions were carried out. Also included are three record drawings of the Circus of Maxentius and the hippodrome at Villa Borghese in Rome; a copy of "L'Entr'acte" containing an article on the proposed construction of a hippodrome (cirque) in Paris; and two letters requesting information on the Hippodrome national.

AP167.S1.SS3.001
Description:
This directory contains files documenting ONL's early experimentation with Virtools. It includes three interactive, game-like composition and player files. The first, titled Trans-ports, allows the user to manipulate a structure's shape and lighting. The skin of the structure can also be manipulated into streaming news headlines. The second, titled Variomatic, allows the user to customize a structure by manipulating its size, shape, color, and construction materials. The third, titled Web of North Holland, allows the user to investigate the geometries of a structure, and later allows the user to move an avatar resembling Kas Oosterhuis around inside the structure. There are also a small number of additional composition files which include drafts of a 3D structure, as well as stock Virtools composition files. Original directory name: "80 nemo to virtools conversion". Most common file formats: Waveform Audio (PCMWAVEFORMAT), JPEG File Interchange Format, Waveform Audio (WAVEFORMATEX), Unidentified, Hypertext Markup Language.
