Prototype
-The tower is reorganized by the distribution of prototypes
in the time/distance cycle. Prototypes create autonomous circulations
that allow segments
of the tower to be freed from their codependence to the whole.
The time/distance cycle is broken into a series of smaller
independent cycles. A new flow diagram appears where a vertical
journey along the tower can be taken via a number of alternative
routes and cross over a series of intersections where one
circulation ends and another begins.

branding:
The
prototype acts as a probe: it is sent to a site attaching itself
to its skin.

Waiting
times for the elevator are cut considerably shorter for the
residentsof each segment within the segment, and are also
cut shorter for most of the segments in relation to the whole.
For example; waiting time from floor to floor within one segment
is conditioned by the size of the prototype, while waiting
time in a case of going from floor 15 to ground is dependent
only in the segments from 15 down and is not influenced by
the floors above 15. s

flow:
The
flow diagram measures time and distance of one elevator journey
up and down the tower.
