From object to field 

1)In this section of Field conditions, we witness how elements are brought together in a way in which one by one they retain different aspects of each individual element. Field Conditions are often seen as a phenomenon, through local connections intervals, repetition that are perceived as important aspects. The components are talked about in a way where they bind with one another and end up coming together.

Geometric Vs Algebraic combination 

2)In architecture geometric forms are organized into reasonable systems of geometric proportion. This section conveys how classical architecture can help dictate both the proportion of individual elements and their relationships as well. We are taught how certain rules such as axiality, symmetry, and formal sequences control the organization of “wholes”. In order to maintain unity, individual elements are kept in a hierarchy ordered through geometric relationships. 

Walking out of cubism

3)Walking out of cubism exploits how the most minimal and simplest work can still demonstrate an effective role when trying to demonstrate a design that will bring a focal point on certain architectural aspects instead of focusing on other aspects such as ornamental and symbolic characteristics in a design. We see examples of this through artists such as Carl Andre, Dan Flavin, and Morris.

Thick 2D

4)The relationships between lines can hold a very strong and significant meaning. The depth and thickness of each line can represent different aspects of a 2D illustration. In this section we learn about how the thickness of a line can intensify the experience between figure and ground.

Flocks, Schools, Swarms, Crowds

5)In this section, we learn about how flocks are elements that consist of following color and simplicity. The flock field is a phenomenon defined by simple conditions while being different to the overall shape. Both large and small flocks demonstrate a similar structure. Whereas crowds represent different elements such as complex desire and through less interactions of patterns.
