Figure 73: The updated ‘Klein group’ model used to structure objects from the field
of enquiry
Through these few examples this new expanded field of designed objects
suggests the opportunity to rethink models of practice driven by computerbased
design and fabrication technologies. This concept of an expanded field is
useful to establish a logical system across a broad range of objects that might
otherwise be regarded as needlessly eclectic (see Figure 73). The research
suggests that this system can not only be used to structure disparate objects
from the field of enquiry but can also indicate relationships between the works
shown in the ‘PBB’ exhibition (see Table 17 and Figure 74).
