design is music
Posted: Tue Jun 12, 2007 9:03 am
next monday i start teaching a four-week workshop at cafa - the central academy of fine arts - in beijing - called "design is music"
should be fun. we'll have architects, graphic designers, fashion designers, photographers and newmedia people in the class.
we'll play and listen to great works of music and compare them to great works of design.
in this theory bach = the great modernist paul rand. stravinsky = the italian futurist marinetti and the lcc is something like frank gehry meets vitruvius - a contemporary concept with an ancient lineage.
like i said, it's fun.
