So I don't know why I do it, but there is something about me that just can't say no to thinking up some crazy idea when I am on a tight schedule. 3 weeks (give or take) left in our final studio project (after only a week of prior work on it) I have hit inspiration that will probably drive me mad. Our project is a music camp/venue on a man-made lake south of Lincoln. My idea is to use music time signatures to impose a grid upon the (intrinsically worthless, man-made) landscape to conform it to an organizing system that will shape the site according to it's rules and not to what I have done. I'll get more into the theory later on, when I will hopefully also have some hard material to show you all. But for now there is the idea that has great potential to be something really sweet and really deep, but at the same time drive me insane by the end of the year. It is about 1:20, I have until noon tomorrow to get my initial concept plan worked out, so it'll be a long night. Lots of research to do in the coming weeks.
P.S. To let all of you know (those who hadn't heard) I did receive the scholarship grant to go study at Hochschule Bremen in Bremen Germany next year. All things willing I will be there in August of this fall until July of next year, both going to school and interning at a German firm. So there's some more crap that'll have to be worked out before the end of the year.
I think I'm starting to understand why I overload myself like this, but I still don't get it. Goodnight to those of you lucky enough
