about me:
Dan Dorocic is currently undertaking a Masters of Architecture at the Bergen Arkitektskole, Norway. He previously studied architecture in Melbourne under architectural critic Kim Dovey (author of ‘Mediating Power in Built Form’), also having studied Environmental Design in Toronto and Geography in Montreal. Dan worked as an architect in Toronto, Melbourne, and London. He is currently working on the Steirischer Herbst installation for Raumlabor, Berlin. His latest university project ‘The Invisible Monument’ with Gisle Lokken from 70 degree architects – was recently selected as the top research project in his studio and presented at the Arctic Frontiers Conference in Tromsø, Norway. The project considers a critical reconceptualisation of ideologi-cal landscapes and the spaces of monuments. Having visited Murmansk, Russia in the autumn of 2011, Dan proposes an action and event-based intervention at the 35-meter tall Soviet ‘Aliosha Monument’ in the city of Murmansk, on its 100th anniversary. With this project, he questions the role of the architect and hopes to spur a re-thinking of the political and legal act that is contained in an architectural ‘moment’.
For your consideration
February 1st, 2012
Dan pollak dorocic
I hope to gain entry into the 2 year Master’s of Architecture at Ryerson. I have recently completed my 4th year course at Bergen Arkitektskole and am currently working in Berlin. However, since I wish to pursue architecture in Canada, I hope to finish my studies at Yeates.
I find my experience across different offices and different schools has taught me the obvious dichotomy of archi-tecture from idea to practice. In school I learn and produce based on ideas I am passionate about - focusing on social equality, spatial re-appropriation, and pure ideals.
In the workplace, depending on the office, the business side tends to take over. Ideas get distilled to the point where the ideals and frameworks lose their edge, where meaning is diluted -where one is hard pressed to trans-form a concept into a built project. Where the built generally falls short of the dream.
The future of architecture has to involve itself more within the landscapes of politics, the economy, and take a leading role in pushing social projects, infrastructural industries and work within new contexts. It needs to devel-op the sustainable thinking architecture students dream up in universities and translate them drastically into the real world. Toronto, specifically, needs to re-assert sustainability and architecture into a driving seat of its urban development.
Because of my experiences , I currently enjoy the freedom and exploration an architecture school offers. Recently I have also come to the conclusion that the age, and size of an architecture program is an important factor in how flexible and open the teaching is. I believe that architecture needs to be practiced without mental restraints. The physical world will restrain the architecture itself. This is why I chose to go to Bergen Arkitektskole, where I found that the open form of the school really speaks to me. Ultimately, I want to practice in Canada, so I apply to Yeates because it fits with my philosophy and my background. I hope you consider my situation and I thank you sincerely for your time.

Designed by Studio 505 Architects in association with environmental sustainability design consultants Umow Lai, Pixel ticks just about every “green” box imaginable. You could say the book of sustainability has been thrown at it just to prove how easy - or hard - it is to be green. Some of the features packed into its four storeys include a roof planted with native grasses for water collection and filtering, fixed and sun-tracking photovoltaic panels on the roof, a bank of three vertical wind turbines (interestingly, locked down on the day I visited the building, despite a gentle breeze), reed-bed ledges around each of its four storeys to filter grey water and shade windows, night purging of warm air for cooling of interiors, ammonia refrigeration, vacuum toilets, radiant cooling and development of a structural concrete, with a high proportion of recycled and reclaimed aggregates in its mix, that uses about half the embodied carbon in its manufacture.

Delta Tower
1:100 Model
The $100 million building will be made from soft-wood panels imported from Europe and fitted together in weeks to make 50 apartments over 10 storeys.
The Grocon building, including its lift shafts, will be all timber, and will use similar technology to the nine-storey residential Stadthaus at Hackney, East London. The building,to be known as Delta,will be carbon neutral and have its own gas-fired electrical generator powered by waste woodchips, and a rainwater and a grey-water recycling system.

Summer 2010
While studying in Australia in 2010, I obtained a position at Studio 505 by building this model over a weekend and winning the project for an unresolved component of CUB10 (the most high profile development block in Melbourne.) This showed me the business-minded logic some of using one project to create new opportunities/territory which Studio 505 used to win more work for the office.

The project is part of a series that includes the Pixel zero carbon building at the Carlton Brewery site in downtown Melbourne. The 50-unit residential tower will
stand 10-12 stories tall atop a heritage bluestone building. The tower will be composed of prefabricated laminated FSC timbers that will be locally sourced.
My participation in the design of Delta goes from concept sketches, conversa-tions with the lead architects on effective use of space. Formal exploration of
the sculptural support columns and the constructuion and presentation of the models to the developer.

“Studio505 are the architects for an exciting new project in Australia being developed by Grocon. Plans are being developed for Delta, a “Passive House” apartment building that will be carbon neutral and built entirely from
timber within the former Carlton Brewery site in Melbourne. The residential tower is 10-12 storeys tall. The timber tower will sit atop a 6 storey podium building designed by studio505 to house a super modern flexible commer-
cial and cultural space.
Delta will be based on the “Passive House” standard, well known throughout Europe and the first to be conceived in Australia.”

Wujin District chose Studio 505 for various designs; from a Masterplan to specific development and re-
finement of varied projects. Working on different stages of the design pro-cesses allowed me to really understand the logic behind winning comissions, and the business side
of the architecture office.

The Wujin Planning and Exhibition Centre is set for a magical and stunning facelift with the addition of the Lotus Conference Centre and Exhibition wings. Set on an existing 10,000m2 artificial lake and fish pond, the complex shows the three stages of
the lotus flower, from the new young bud, to the full ripe flower through to the opened bloom with a seed pod within.The structure houses exhibition spaces, conference and meeting rooms, and will become an iconic attraction symbolising the
growth and prosperity of Wujin.

Canvaspod is the product of a visual representation studio where every-thing had to be drawn by hand to represent ideas for a temporary architec-
ture workshop space.
I always hijacked my education and sought to create my own program instead of fitting into a pre-determined one. At McGill I fashioned a broad program of my interests in Environment, Spactial processes, Geology, and
Biology and in the end coined a new program at McGill - the Bachelor of Science in Geography.
The only student in the program.
I undertake my architecture education along a similair vein and it has already taken me across 3 continents, from Toronto to Melbourne and most
recently to Bergen, Norway.

The site of this temporary buidling is Melbourne Campus. The idea for the projects is a temporary ‘encampement’ and workshop for architecture
students . It is a doomed building with an expiry date , as such it has a miniature crane as its central

Infill
frame +
In this exercise, I built a frame and played with components to fill it. Different procedures of filling the frame altered the nature of the modular pieces. Thus, as the procedure of attachign the components changed, so did the compo-nents themselves.
TO study the particular behavoir of the frame I threw different identical repeating components at it.

The stripped frame was the starting point of this project.
Through repeating the process of infill and modularization of the components, the building evolved into its final form.
Finally, the frame components are simplified down into their simplest form. The frame’s size does not change, only the infill changes between black, white and a glass plate.

For this Desing studio at Mel-bourne University, we planned and designed a community Hall.
During the studio we produced a number of study models and worked our way through various design methods. Concurrently we took courses in structures and construction where we physically built a pavillion, a heavy wall on Malbourne Uni campus and de-contructed nuberous residential and commercial buildings around Melbourne CBD.

In this studio I explored a scenario of a low-energy, oil-free future for Melbourne. I focused on urban farming, seasonality, nomadism, the city as a landscape, the reap-propriatin of abandoned spaces, the recycling of the Cebtral Busi-ness Core with the squatting of abandoned condominum towers.
Here is a 3d render of a slum dwelling parasitically taking over Melbourne’s Eureka tower ( the tallest residential tower in the southern hemisphere). In the background we see another squatted tower.

Our field trip took us to Murmansk, Russia. I focused on the ‘unworking’ of the architectural apparatus used by the now abandoned Soviet system. Finding inspra-tion in the Situationists, Keller Easterling and Ecological thinking, I proposed a new framework for the future of Murmansk by creating a platform for change and reorientations at the monumental Alijosha soldier overlooking the city.

FABRIC AS GENERATORCan the language of advertisement be re-routed to create a new implication, can it be mapped onto the monument to embezzle it with a new meaning?
In a public context, Christo’s veiling actually func-tioned to reveal what was hidden when the Reich-stag was visible. 6
The canvas in the public realm - not as an advertise-ment for a market good but as a catalyst for social change. The language of public art/street art.Instead of building another monument in 2016, why not celebrate and ‘reconstruct’ the already existing monument?
Aliosha is the icon of Murmansk.He looks over the city, and the city looks at him. In the daily drift through the streets of Murmansk, inhabitants get confronted by numerous things on the skyline. Smokestacks, cranes, housing slabs, and dominantly Aliosha. This visual connection to the city makes Aliosha the perfect site to celebrate the centennial.
There are a lot of plans for the development of Murmansk. Over the next few years there are plans to renovate Arctica Hotel, several sports facilities, garbage processing complex, a four lane road south and more. There is also a deal for the construction of a number of new dwellings.
However, there aren’t any plans for the promotion of creativity in Murmansk. There is realistically a dire need for a creative outlet in the city. And there are already many actors working towards the goal. The main obstacle is the lack of infrastructure and support from above. One such actor is Evegny, who is building a youth art centre with the help of some friends. He has been working on it for years, with little or no support from the municipality.

CATALYST
The intervention for the city of Murmansk is based on a collective social experiment on the city scale. By using the rhizomatic nature of today’s social net-works it is possible to organize and mobilize a city wide intervention for the hundred year anniversary of Murmansk. This event calls for the participation across the entire city of Murmansk to weave together a quilt to cover up the monument of Alyosha.
Murmansk is about to celebrate it’s 100 year anniver-sary. It has been a quarter century since the break-up of the Soviet Union. Yet, although the Soviet Union has dissipated 25 years ago, it’s legacy still lives on.
There is a need to celebrate the future of the city, but without forgetting its past.
The culmination at ‘Aliosha’
This project seeks to act as a catalyst for the creativ-ity underlying the surface of Murmansk.
STRATIFIED PLACES
The kind of differences that define a place are not the ordering or juxtaposition of subjects and objects on the surface- a field where bodies are arranged. The elements spread out on the surface can be enumerated, they are available for analysis - instead it’s what lies underneath, hidden by history, the invisible.
Everyday practices , based on their relationship to an occasion, that is, on casual time, are thus, scat-tered all along duration, in the situation of acts of thought. Casual time is what narrated in the actual discourse of the city: an indeterminate fable , bet-ter articulated on the metaphorical practices and stratified places than on the empire of the evident in functionalist technocracy.7
The job of the monument is not to lock away his-tory forever, or to let us forget, but it’s job is to confront us, to keep our past on our minds.
Currently, Alisoha still functions as a State appa-ratus showing military power, and the only way to show one’s respect is in an official ritual of bringing flowers.

murmansk 2016 "centenial reorientations"
28
The centennial provides an opportunity for the re-invention of the monument and a reflection of the trajectory of Murmansk.
A collective action organized between dif-ferent agents in the city makes the monu-ment momentarily disappear under a veil, freeing Murmansk from the gaze of it’s military history.
The covering up of Aliosha, however, is only temporary, and after the celebration he is unveiled and revealed. When the monument is revealed everything seems unchanged, but the event has transformed the participants and the city.
The monument itself is the framework of the change, and the fabric becomes the visual technology of it’s transformation. The same technology used to plaster ideological advertisements all over the city is here used to create a moment of pause. By blankly covering up Aliosha, the fabric seems out of place, out of time, transporting the monu-ment to an unseen dimension.
What lies under the textile is obvious, but momentarily the imagination is free to wander, and it is allowed to dream.

The concept is to engage young artist and creatives of Murmansk in order to create an event-intervention at the Aliosha Monu-ment to coincide with the 100 year anniver-sary of the city. The intervention involves the mapping of the city, in fabric, on the 35 meter tall Soldier.

L’Absent de L’Histoirea short film
New HieararchiesThis 5 minute film is a research by-product composed of many stills taken at 3 different sites in Berlin and many spots on our trip through the Arctic. The investigation in Berlin delves into city spaces reap-
propriated in different ways. First, the Soviet Memorial in Treptower park as a space of commemo-ration. Second, the now abandoned CIA reconnaissance base on Teufelsberg. Third, the converted Tempelhof airport that now serves as a park and centre of recreation. The concepts of undoing and unworking and of creating flexible networks, play a central role in the film. Research broadly covers philosophers and architects: Michel Decertau, Guy Debord, Bernard Tschumi, Simon Sadler, Walter
Benjamin, Juhani Pallasmaa, and Doreen Massey.

PERMACULTURE FARM
The Bustan Qaraaqa mission propagates a grassroots environmental movement in the Pales-tinian Territories to help combat ongoing humanitarian and environmental crises.
During the same trip in the Middle East, I volunteered with other geologists for a week at Bustan Qaraaqa in the design process, logistics, landscaping and all physical work required to
establish a sustainable, slef-sufficient permaculture farm.
The Jalazone camp was established in 1949 on 0.25 square kilometres of rocky hillside 7km north of Ramallah.
Most of the original refugees came from 36 villages in the Lydd and Ramleh areas. Like other West Bank camps, it was established on land UNRWA leased from the government of Jordan.
The camp came under joint Israeli-Palestinian control following the Oslo agreements.All shelters are connected to public water and electricity, but many are not connected to the
sewerage system, instead using private latrines connected to percolation pits or allowing waste water to flood into the roads.
While travelling and dwelling in the Middle East, I rented a room in Ramallah for a month and volunteered at the school in Jalazone teaching art classes to Plestinean children.
