The Financial District was a presentation developed for a Machinic Processes seminar at the University of Oregon. This was an exercise to study a given site, map some of its attributes, and present a possible future growth model to the class. Our team, realizing the site focused around government and financial buildings, thought of the possibility of an urban center becoming self aware. Following possible scenarios laid out by Jerry Kaplan, the Financial District asks what happens when finance, government, and industry build upon each other to a point where “Humans Need Not Apply.”
