| Located in the Eixample area of Barcelona, the music and dance department extension for the Maristes La Immaculada school provides an alternate environment for learning the creative arts. The seemingly abstract geometries throughout the building are formed from three different types of rhythms found in flamenco: heelwork, guitar music and vocals, formed through specified TouchDesigner scripts. The building and its materiality pay homage to the mining and ploughing roots of flamenco, and through its form, serves as a commentary on the potentially mechanical nature of human movement. By extension, it calls into question the human balance between predictability and randomness – or perhaps between order and chaos. |
