Roy Lichtenstein - Make sounds visible

Rethinking about this past project Roy Lichtensteins work just jumps to my mind.
His prints basically show sounds transformed into type, one of the main characteristics of comic books. After thinking this idea through I thought of something that might look visually pleasing: replacing all those type-noises with braille...making sound tangible..

CSM - Design for Performance and Set Show

Went to see this show designed by a good friend, Lauren Glasgow.
There was a cooperation between CSM and London Studio Center students.
The choreography was quite interesting, a couple of pretty original moves in each performance, kinda hard to explain though.
The costumes were pretty nice too.

Anyways it kinda fits with the project.
The designers and choreographers were asked to interpret the 'city skyline' into dance and props.
It's quite an abstract subject to dance to.
Using crumbling costumes and city-themed melodies, the show was quite enjoyable (and just short enough so I didn't lose interest).

SPS - 3D Visualisation

The blueprints will hopefully be here soon..

Basically the idea is to take the model of the SPS like seen above and make a whole (person-sized) structure from it.

The idea is that there will be microphones in all four corners of the room/location, as well as one on the roof. The structure will have a screen facing each of those directions. In the structure there will be a database of sound recognition and images that go with the specific sound, which will be revealed on the screen facing that particular way.

For the braille (so blind people can enjoy it too!) there can be a small reel under the screen that turns appropriately and spells out the sound (in words obv).

The pieces will thus interact with its environment.
