the images are edited from my midterm presentation. my first, of the advanced studio sequences. it started out the same as most. pushing abnormal schedules, and working through the night to plot, model, and do the presentation mash-up. oh what fun we have in 500S (gotta say, sick view of campus - overlooking the central square. nosy pigeons and water color sun sets [/rises]).
carving out terra firma for a pear shaped performance space, light and air. the sequences leading up to 'hades chamber' (complete with three-headed guard dog) are meant to architecturally spatialize the story of orpheus entering the underworld in search of eurydice. the procession is broken (for now) into four acts; the threshold into the underground; the grotto; the river of styx; hades chamber. haunting reverberations of civic infrastructure and orchestral maneuvers in the dark echo as one approaches hades pear-shaped performance pit.
check it out... so this is all happening at the old trolley station at delancey and essex! after receiving (surprisingly enthusiastic) feed-back the push begins to re-organize and re-visualize this project in sexy (but, informative) images and models, models, models.
more clues coming later!
you know I love old burnt and torn paper for representation.
