the music that is performed at a rock club showcases a value of its core: rebellion. one cannot rebel without its antithesis: authority. the rock club is an opportunity to rebel against the given authority, namely conditions created by the site. there are three conditions of authority created by the site: a grid condition, a roof condition, and a ground condition. by subverting these conditions of authority, the building rebels.
