• Stronger reason for sight
• Use a sight that has a folly of history
• Go theatrical by going to a place that is open to theatrics
• Stock exchange makes it ridiculous
• Mary Miss to Historical prepschool to theater
• Loosey goosey connections
• Look at how movie sets are put together and how they recreate reality. Dichotomy. White box to be deconstructed and reprogrammed. Every site needs to be recreated
• The White Box system
• Use carcass of theater to build into
• Must go beyond
• Bertol Brecht
• Look at tech side of theater. How does it behave
• Mechanically
• Rooms inside other rooms
• Gordon Matta-Clarke
• Cuts dictate reprogramming
• Diderot: Encyclopedia
• Theater ruin on Flatbush past its crossing Washington
• Bam Harvey
• Possibly below decks. Go back in history
• To know the guy is moving the wall but you don’t see him. 15th century theater in the south of Switzerland
• Tighten program
• Review theater history. Lacking its own analysis
• Brecht criticized theater – used alienation techniques
• Address cultural issues through the theater building. “Discipline and Punishment” by Foucault links theater to school
• 18th century operas is about being seen. Theater was a side show. Investigate theater
• Progrit Schere[sp]: Nazi architect. Built with anticipation of destruction
• Leave reification behind. Would lead to a critique on Marxism
• Conceal to reveal in film was good – Marc Schaut
• Research Appia – stair design an architectural element proposal
