In search of Thesis Statement

I have been using music as a form generator for a long time now. I have believed that my interest in musically generated architecture was just due to my personal interest in music, yet I'm just understanding the reasons of my great obsession with music and architecture. When musical data is used as an input into a form generation system, the forms generated become animated. Forms generated reflect the change in musical patterns. Music in nature is a constant change over time, it's dynamic. I'm interested in that dynamic nature of music.

Architecture known today is a static idea. Design decisions are based on momentary conditions which become obsolete over time due to the changing nature of the conditions and context. I propose designing systems that are embedded with information to respond to change of conditions.

The embedded information will be a product of extracted, analyzed, and responded data by the designer. 

The information embedded is a system of:
1-data extracted or sensed
2-data analyzed and sorted
3-data responded 

The data can be extracted from history, in which the designer will study the past patterns of an event, sort them into groups of similarity, and create a response to grouped data when a similar data arrives.

Experiment Three: Steaming Music


Experiment One: Painted Music

Painted music combines multiple cross-sensory models.
The experiment was performed by multiple artist that listened to the same song, danced and painted simultaneously.

First Output: Kinesthetic Translation of Music
-Dancer's shadows as a movie.

Second Output: Visual Translation of Music.
-Still images of dancer's shadows
-Paintings of music
