architectural design; digital model; website; essay
Following the music+architecture explorations (see below) I studied the possibilities of architecturally engaging a type of music with its own sub-culture that I was familiar with. This was my undergraduate thesis work at Drury university in 2001 and 2002, and I published a website as a way to present the entirety of the project.

The project took on a hypothetical client, my friend Eric Titerud and his record label, Magister Ludi Records, and sought to design a facility for his label and the small punk community in the Springfield, MO region. Music by Rites of Spring was analyzed and diagrammed using previously established methods and adapted for a unique mishap of a site in downtown springfield.

digital animations
Digital animations exploring spatial representations of music. Lee Morgan's piece, the Search For New Land was analyzed compositionally and dynamically and diagrammed 2 dimensionally. These diagrams were then modeled in 3D digital space and interpreted to become somewhat architecturally spatial. The first two animations above diagram the entire piece of music, while the next two explore only the trumpet solo. The final animation folds the solo, both in model and in music, in on itself spatially and temporily to achieve a space that attempts to resolve inherent differences and between the music, which is always linear and architecture, which is typically non-linear.
