Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This thesis will reflect on how cities in the developed world have become disconnected from water; seeing it purely as a functional source and ignoring the essence of what Ivan lllich calls the “water of dreams ”. 1 This disconnect has been compounded in the city of Ottawa, where reports by Frederick Todd and Jacques Greber introduced planning focused on aesthetics and the visual experience of the city. Their recommendations imposed a strong urban arrangement that physically distanced the public from the water. This thesis examines how architecture can be used to reunite Ottawa and it’s water. Urban and architectural projects that embrace water rather than shed it, led to the development of strategies used in a thesis project. Four architectural interventions along the Ottawa River are proposed to break through the existing arrangement and provide the public clear access to the water.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
