dc:description.abstract

This thesis involves two aspects of Music and of Architecture. Art as Object and Art as Event. The study is presented in two parts: Architectura Poetica and Architectura Practica. Architectura Poetica - Art as Object. The poeticus of this project, the objective elements, are those things concerned with the timely; the means of construction; the structure itself; the non-parallel walls desired in spaces for music. These are expressions <i>about</i> Architecture. Architectura Practica - Art as Event. The practicus of this project, the subjective elements, are those things created by and brought-to-life by the experiencing person, but offered by the objective elements. They are impressions of the objective elements: public/private, dynamic/static, light/dark, formal/informal, inside/outside. These are expressions <i>of</i> Architecture.
