 The Corpocinema was an expanded cinema environment presented in a series of open-air performances in Rotterdam and Amsterdam in 1967. The work dematerialised the opaque flat projection surface of traditional cinema by creating instead a transparent three-dimensional volume within which the cinematic image could be reconstituted in an equivocal and immediate way. The specific physical and temporal qualities of the various actions and events performed to materialise the projected images also caused dramatic transformations and re-constructions of those images. The Corpocinema was an expanded cinema environment presented in a series of open-air performances in Rotterdam and Amsterdam in 1967.

The specific physical and temporal qualities of the various actions and events performed to materialise the projected images also caused dramatic transformations and re-constructions of those images.
 The basic structure was a large air-inflated transparent PVC dome onto which film and slides were projected from the outside. These projections were made visible by physical events and performed actions that created temporary conditionsthat materialised the projected imagery within and on the surface of the dome. For example, white polythene tubing was inflated until it filled the interior of the dome, thus creating a complex, growing surface on which the image appeared - then the dome was deflated over this tubing. Fire-extinguishing foam was sprayed over the entire inner surface of the dome, building up an opaque white projection surface - and as the foam dripped off the dome, the projected image disintegrated. Various other substances such as smoke, steam, water spray and confetti were used to fill the interior space of the dome and so constitute a volume of particles on which the projected images were attenuated.\\ The basic structure was a large air-inflated transparent PVC dome onto which film and slides were projected from the outside.

 +This work is somehow in a sketchy fase, in the meantime his work evolved in way more elaborate outcomes.

 "One day I was looking at the red flower patterns of the tablecloth on a table, and when I looked up I saw the same pattern covering the ceiling, the windows and the walls, and finally all over the room, my body and the universe. I felt as if I had begun to self-obliterate, to revolve in the infinity of endless time and the absoluteness of space, and be reduced to nothingness. As I realized it was actually happening and not just in my imagination, I was frightened. I knew I had to run away lest I should be deprived of my life by the spell of the red flowers. I ran desperately up the stairs. The steps below me began to fall apart and I fell down the stairs straining my ankle." "One day I was looking at the red flower patterns of the tablecloth on a table, and when I looked up I saw the same pattern covering the ceiling, the windows and the walls, and finally all over the room, my body and the universe.

-Alexis Rochas: The AEROMADS project outlines an architectural system that combines air pressure and high-strength intelligent fabrics as a tectonic solution for the creation of minimal mass, self-sustaining structures. Unplugged and detached from source networks, AEROMADS is a discreet architectural unit that utilizes air pressure as a tectonic resource and building material, and sets out to explore the nomadic applications of groundless architectonics. 
-The exterior is sheathed in nylon rib-coated with aluminized Mylar to reflect light and provide thermal insulation. For energy needs, the Aeromads has embedded photovoltaic, flexible batteries and solar water heating.\\

 Passing into a darkened entrance hall, you are ushered, not to say bundled, through a doorway into an immense, red womb-like space, lit through its membrane-like surface which looks soft, almost velvet-like, but is rubbery and barely yields to the touch. Gaping orifices open out into three more pod-like spaces. Far from standing in the exhibition hall looking at an object, you’re in the object itself, with no sense of the surrounding environment – until the sun comes out projecting the web-like patterns of the Grand Palais’s roof over the rounded surfaces.  Passing into a darkened entrance hall, you are ushered, not to say bundled, through a doorway into an immense, red womb-like space, lit through its membrane-like surface which looks soft, almost velvet-like, but is rubbery and barely yields to the touch.

-The concert hall Ark Nova created by Arata Isozaki and Anish Kapoor is an air-inflated membrane structure which equipped with the necessary stage and sound equipment. The membrane can be folded up and the equipment dismantled and loaded on a truck, so they can be brought to each site. The interior is a single uninterrupted space which, depending on the arrangement of equipment, is a multistage format which can accommodate various events from orchestras to chamber music, jazz, the performing arts or exhibitions. It is envisioned to seat 500 during an orchestra performance, and is planned to have a width of 30m, length of 36m and maximum height of 18m. realisation 26 nov. 2013.http://www.dezeen.com/2013/09/26/ark-nova-by-arata-isozaki-and-anish-kapoor-completes/
