Logistics, Facility and Space

Today's Lecture discussed 3 key issues that need to be considered: Space, facility, logistics.

Logistics
Logistics will be introduce at the beginning of the project as this is essential to define the context of the design and the experience of participants.

Medi-Go, an overaching intellgent logistics platform, that accesses the database of SMDSA from Project.
Through monitoring the population's geogratic, demographic and medical profiles Medi-go is able to optimise the distribution of Medi-Pods to provide maximise health care access through out Australia.

There Opportunities are for exploring the logistics of Patient and Practitioner interaction with the Medi-Pod with  the Medi-Platorm and Medi-Control

Facility
All Architectural Possibilities mentioned in the first post are by their very nature are facilities that facilitates an action or process to serve a particular function,

  1. Medi-Action,       Task-force to initiate change and paradigm shift
  2. Medi-pod,           Mobile health care apparatus 
  3. Medi-go,             Management and distribution
  4. Medi-Platform,    Interface with city, urban and remote locations
  5. Medi-Control,     Practitioners remote control interface with Medi-pod ()
it is this projects purpose to explore the experiences of these Facilities.

Space

There are two types of space that needs to be addressed, space created by the architectural response as well as the space that contains it. It is important to consister the relationship between these spaces and the role the architectural response plays.

There are three types spaces currently that this Project intends to respond to and provide an alternative for:

vast remote isolating space - experienced by remote communities within Australia Regional Areas
confined tense, high stress space - experienced by medical practitioners
fragmented, high paced space - communters within Australian Cities
