The challenge has been set – to build an inner / outer type structure to house a sound installation. The project I am working on is artistically directed by a writer and a composer and will be part of the Birmingham Book Festival.
The structure needs to stand on top of an old shop counter that has an octagon shape at its base with a circular top.
This needs careful consideration, there are lots of elements that need to come together at this point in the project so that costs stay realistic, so risks can be assessed and planned into the design as well as trying to find out what the sound installation is even going to sound like in such a structure.
I am excited about the convergence of all these things at this stage in the project and also daunted. It’s the unpredicatable nature of the challenges that lie ahead that are exhilirating my problem solving brain and worrying my cautious nature.
I’ll be blogging about the developments of the structure as the plans unfold.
