The God Insanity
The God Insanity
Humans have been suffering from an illusion, or self-deception for thousands of years. Ancient people experienced great fear, anxiety and discomfort from unexplained natural phenomena and from the hardships of a primitive life. To control these fears, they relied on defense mechanisms; with the unfortunate result, seen even today, of the widespread belief in an imaginary, supernatural being, known as God. The God Insanity will reveal this belief as an illusion—a mere by-product of ancient self-defense mechanisms intended to explain a confusing, mysterious world. Looking at the example of the Christian belief system, author James Andre Blunt uses critical thinking and logic to dismantle and disprove all of the laws and concepts of biblical Christianity, leaving no gray areas. In addition, we will discover that there is nothing remotely similar or consistent between the teachings of the Bible and the modern laws and sociocultural ethics of the United States. For too long we have been shackled to an unfounded belief system—one that has even been used to promote slavery and discrimination, among other unacceptable practices. Yet, with more knowledge about the world and its workings, and by critically examining the foundations of religious beliefs like Christianity, we can free ourselves from unconscious defense mechanisms and explore these timeless questions for ourselves.

Michelangelo and the Baths of Diocletian
It has always been known that the church was built within the fabric of a ruin, but now, from a contemporary vantage point, what can be gained by re-framing it? Piecing together the history and architecture to create a basic understanding of why this project was successful; not as a new construction, but as an adaptive reuse. From the understanding of the site and 16th century preservation efforts, to an analysis of the circulation and materiality within the church, this thesis will examine Michelangelo's design to better understand his strategy.

Deployable Architecture
Folding empowers the user to change the form and function of a sheet of paper through a sequence of manipulations. Unfolding the once folded artefact produces a diagram that describes its own making that can be replicated at different scales using a new material. Architecturally, folding can be employed a morphogenetic solution to design a system that can be fabricated from a sheet material, that like paper, can be folded into a inhabitable structure. The ease and cost efficiency of fabrication based on folding can be used to design a system that executed using low cost materials can be used as a shelter that accommodates programmatic and aesthetic evolution. Thus, the system lends itself to being a transitional shelter for communities that have been displaced due to a natural disaster or other form of crisis.
