Purification, a double projection created for Peter Sellars' staging of Wagner's opera Tristan and Isolde in 2005, offers a perfect synthesis of all these elements. With extreme sloweddown movements, a couple performs a purification ritual, which evokes a rebirth.
Sound Research
In 1969, Leitner began his research on sound defined space.A room composed of 64 loudspeakers, the Soundcube allowed for the sounds to travel from one side to another, circling, spiraling, changing in pitch and direction.

Experiment:Sightline and White noise
I dived into a swimming pool to test the sound and view from different sightline. The voice under the water is much more quiet and the voice change make me feeling like going into anchor world.

The facade of buildings is Georgian architecture. It is an architectural styles current between 1714 and 1830. And Piccadilly Circus is firstly opened in 1819.
Georgian style is highly variable, but a market of symmetry and proportion based on the classical architecture of Greece and Rome, as revived in the architecture of the Renaissance. Decoration is also usually in the classical tradition, but usually restrained and sometimes almost completely distant from the outside. The period shifted the vocabulary of classical architecture to smaller and more modest buildings than before.
Georgian architecture is characterized by its proportion and balance; simple mathematical ratios were used to determine the height of a window in relation to its width or the shape of a room as a double cube.

Unit7 aims to create an atmosphere by catching a moment , re-narritiving designing the space to let audience feel a kind of atmosphere. The space i recorded is a cinema. This is a place which could lead people’s emotion and lots of people fall in sleep in that dark and a little bit noisy atmosphere. My design proposal is to make a comfortable and quiet atmosphere by recording some white noise and video under water. At first, i just recorded everything randomly and let the camera floating in water. After leaning how to add story element in history and theory lecture, i recorded after a fish in the sea and the view become more attractive.The video will project on a curved screen. Actually the screen is the wall of my sign, although it looks like a bubble.
And here is 3 blogs selected from my pallet : The definition of atmosphere is the connection between objects and human , a sense in that situation.Peter Zumthor described different kinds of silence in his interview. I think this kind of silence helps him create atmosphere well. He absorbs his idea from literature, thinking and music. Although he is a quiet people, these three things makes him never board. He felt his built spaces is communicated to viewers, residents, visitors and the immediate neighbourhood. Atmosphere includes the first impression. There is always a surrounding story in a site, no matter it is mental, biographical or historical. The architecture should always be connected to the surrounding, they are not self-centered. These connection created an atmosphere for architecture. He said he connect the architecture back to the old ritual of bath in his famous project Therme Vals. After watching his interview, i found atmosphere is like perfume. People could read the story of this area by smelling or visiting it. Imagination, mood, feelings, sense of expectation, background stories helps to create the atmosphere. Peter Zumthor create thick atmosphere through using materials like stones, and can’t help to compare his work with another artist who create a light atmosphere.Do Ho Such is a Korean artists.He made a series home sculpture. He did a series of textile sculpture to present his home. Home is an unforgettable memory and it worth repeating over and over again in art work. In his work ’Seoul Home’was inspired by his home in childhood, a classic Korean architecture. The green house which was made with yarns hang on the roof, this is his earliest understanding of home. ’The perfect home II’is a model of his apartment in New York. He used cardboard to cover all in his house and sketch every detail texture on the paper.He used this way to say goodbye to the place he spent 18 years in working and living. This apartment transferred to a nylon sculpture in later time.He made all furnitures and structure in a 1:1 scale. The whole work is like combination of reality and dream with the transparent blue materials.
We are looking at several oil paintings that full of stories.The first picture is called The Sick Girl. We didn’t know the name when we first saw this painting.A girl is laying on the bed and her maid sent her a cup of drink. However, the eyes of the maid was so cold and looking straight to audiences. This seem like there is another people sitting in the corner of this room which the maid did not want this situation happened.I made a guess about the girl’s fiancee was here and the maid hated him.Or the girl did not have lots of rights in this family and the maid could treat her by her mood.When the name of the painting unveil, it was called ‘The Sick Girl’. This painting give us a dramatic and mystery atmosphere.An good art piece is not only presenting a sense of beauty to audiences, but also letting people have imaginations on it and being emotional.
Atmosphere could exist in spaces and pairings. Why not atmosphere exist in words. As an architect Shu Wang said “You can use any of software ,sketching or words to design, if it describe clearly”. “Invisible cities” really plot every cities so well in front of my eyes through words.
Diomira: the book said it is a city of pleasant. Although the view is not the unique one, it could bring happiness to the people there.
Isidora: the city of desire. Arts, music and casino were the impression he thought before. However , when he reach, he saw a city of quite. People walked and sited in the plaza, like the desire were forgotten for long times.
Dorothea: A city of mirror. You can then work from these facts until you learn everything you wish about the city in the past, present and future. It is like a garden in deserts.
Zaira: city of high bastion. It is fully weaponed and had tiny scars of army. She seemed would not like to show people her history and pain.
Anastasia: Anastasia is a city of desire and pressure. You could enjoy shopping and playing here, but you should work hard to live here.
Tamara: city of desire religions, sex, even prison. Everything seemed to be respected in this city. Tamara uses sign to represent functions which was a highly predictive behavior.
All in all, described how atmosphere could exist in different media. In my studio work, i use different media like video, voice and space to present an atmosphere which learned from the H&T lecture.What’s more, when i get stuck in ideas, i will look the history and theory presentation record and try to get inspiration. Last but not least, the way of finding art works by the list in museum or on internet is a really impressive way to remember those work. Although the reference isn’t used in the current project, it is perhaps useful for next one.
