Dynamic Structure

Here is a link to a conversation between Balmond and Toyo Ito about making structure dynamic.http://www.cagroup.cn/au/001/44-53.pdf

Irrational and Rational

I was reading through a Cecil Balmond interview and he was discussing the success of rational and irrational structure of Johann Bach's music. Balmond compared this to his time growing up in Sri Lanka and living in London and the influence it had on his architecture. Maybe we should investigate some structural properties in unfamiliar architecture that I am not sure any of us are well versed in, i.e. Asia and S. America.

I do not want to use deadlines because pressured research is crap, I am hoping that the blog will combat that. So with that being said lets get things rolling.
