notes

You don't want it to seem gratuitous
metaphor dimension and literal
piano-structural, trying to carry over these structural techniques
relationship between weight and counterweight
form and function are one in a piano
don't have this yet
parking garage and see what types of spaces are being made
what might make certain boundaries in the theater?
Would it leave the box and enter the city?
Start simple. Your counterweights used to stand out, now just elevators
Look more into the way its prescribed
look at how a barn door opens and closes
fail to organize thoughts around the intentional aspects of your theater
Design the interior. Then, the relationship between interior/exterior will be clear. Then you can show the interior (backstage) as the exterior
Van Doesburg and Mondrian - Cartesian plane
About infinity X,Y,Z axis
Regulate changing pattern
Multipurpose music space in NY-large planes, slices and rotate on tracks- allow you to explore the interior. What will constitute the interior condition?


I think I have currently exhausted the possibilities of the sliding planes on the four walls of the box. I will now choose a movement that suits the desired conditions of the first theater, then the two adjacent theaters. There will be an inner box that separates the performance from the audience and the outer box which separates the theater from the rest of the city. The sliding will break both boundaries. I am currently drawing three plans: the sub grade, grade, and super grade. I will then do another saveas on the max model and 3D model these spaces to investigate the conditions of these two boundaries being broken through their linked movement to the ballasts. I can have the three plans posted by this Friday while I simultaneously 3D model the system granted that I can choose the correct dimensional system that will provide the desired conditions. Sections will be a matter of production.

Thanks you Liz for note-taking and the Waterfall trip
