Project 2: Owens Lake Phase 9/10
Instructions \\
Springing into design before we even get to visit the site, we will develop strategies for dust
control that break from the rigid tillage patterns and create a responsive field condition of
trenches, berms, dimples, and other landforms. Clay study models are the primary means of
design. From these models, we will produce a hand-drawn index of the palimpsests and
changes. These drawings and models will be integrated with the P3 Eidetic Video for the
presentation on 5/4.
Part 1 \\ RESEACH
Monday 4/10, you need to become experts about the pros and cons of the various dust control
methods deployed on Owens Lake. So, collectively we will produce a presentation that
evaluates and shares:
A\\ A high-resolution aerial image of Owens Lake scaled at 1:5000 (about 1 foot = 1
mile).
The finished print of Owens Lake will be +/- 16’ x 8’. Don’t worry, north can be oriented
sideways.
B\\ Scaled drawing for Owens Lake with widths/areas for all major features, wetted
areas, existing dust control infrastructure, ecological zones, property
ownership/jurisdictions,
___
C\\ Existing dust control strategies and methods used on Owens Lake to date, covering
past implementation practices, materiality, water use, habitat creation, energy use,
aesthetics, and other factors.
D\\ Possible processes for creating a multifunctional terrain, explore available
construction methods and tools, with physical parameters such as:
• Blade width
• Cutting/digging depth
• Carrying capacity
• Vehicle turning radius
• Speed and travel distance

E\\ Wind and meteorological conditions responsible for dust emissions & physics of
PM10 emission
F\\ Ecological benefits provided by the re-watering & re-vegetation of Owens Lake via
the dust control measures.
Part 2 \\ TERRAIN PATTERNS
Sculpted in modeling clay, create a series of studies that explore strategies to produce
variations and complexity using simple repetition of landforms, and construction methods.
Explore landforms patterns of dimples, dots, lines, dashes, waves, streams and pools of water,
vegetation patterns

Shallow Flooding - This DCM consists of releasing fres h and/or recycled water into a DCA and
allowing it to spread, wet the surface, and
thereby suppress windborne dust during the dust
season (October 1st to June 30th).

Studio Safety & Cleaning [version 1.0]
Prior to assigning a ‘making’ project, the faculty member shall prepare and distribute an
instruction sheet geared towards the assignment that provides directions on how to
‘make,’ clean up, and ensure the exercise remains healthy and safe, i.e. requiring the
wearing of protective clothing, masks, gloves, etc. The sheet shall also provide a clear
explanation of any and all of the consequences of not adhering to the instructions, i.e.
lowered grade in/failing the course, charges for clean-up, and referral to Judicial
Affairs. The faculty member shall distribute the instruction sheet to students and go over
it in class prior to their commencing work on the assignment. The Dean/Associate Dean,
ENV’s Instructional Safety Technician, and the Environmental Health and Safety Division
are available to provide consultation.
1. Don’t work alone with sharp, spinning, or hot tools – have a safety buddy around.
2. Knife blades, saws, and drills can snap, wood can splinter, plastic can break, and metal
shavings/saw dust can get in your eyes! USE EYE PROTECTION/SAFETY GOOGLES any
time you are working with a material (or tool) that can splinter or fracture – that means
ALL THE TIME!
3. Dust from sanding/cutting can be toxic at worst, or just a respiratory nuisance, use an
appropriate respirator/mask and work where there is plenty of ventilation to keep
everybody healthy (behind building 2).
4. Utility/X-Acto/Olfa blades are very sharp! Use appropriate straight edges; make sure
your fingers are to the side of the blade.
5. You will be charged for repairing any desktops that you damage by cutting on them
without a cutting mat, or if you get paint/glue anywhere that isn’t a paint booth!
6. Dull blades are even more dangerous than sharp ones, so change blades often.
7. Don’t wear loose clothes, dangling jewelry, or head phones/ear buds when working
with power tools – these can all get snagged.
8. If you drop something heavy on your foot, do you really want to be wearing flip-flops or
open toed shoes?
9. Don’t rinse plaster or clay down the drains – it will cause a clog and you will be charged
for the repair costs.
9. You are most accident-prone when you are tired, distracted, or stressed – so stay cool,
calm, and collected with a good nights sleep.
10. If you don’t know how to do something or what the risks might be, ASK!
11. Clean up your workspace, anytime you plan on stepping away for more than a few
minutes.
If you don't follow these rules in LA303L and end up hurting a classmate or damaging CPP
property, you may fail the course and face sanctions by Judicial Affairs.
THESE RULES WILL BE UPDATED AS NEEDED TO COVER ALL UNIVERSITY POLICIES.
