descours 2009 TOUR 12 New Orleans Open House Prototype.mov
Tour 12 DesCours PODCAST for “Open House Prototype 2″ by Francis Bitonti and Brian Osborn, part of DesCours 2009 Installation series sponsored by the New Orleans Chapter of the American Institute of Architects.
Concept:
openHouse is an illuminated canopy filling the upper portion of a small courtyard. As participants fill the courtyard the space is transformed by a field of kinetic devices. Our objective is to create a fluid public condition which is programmed by habitation and social interaction. Participants control the architecture through the casual use of daily objects — glasses, plates and the like. The character and structure of the space becomes inseparable from the objects, and therefore the users, within it.
Bio:
FRANCIS A. BITONTI is an award winning designer based in New York. Francis holds a Master of Architecture from Pratt Institute and a BFA from Long Island University in Digital Media. Francis has exhibited his work internationally and has most recently shown work at the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum.

His work with computational design and digital technologies has been widely influential and has lectured at a number of conferences and academic institutes.
