Morphology - Shells of Sydney Opera House


“Architecture is frozen music” ~ Johann Wolfgang
The composition of music is used as the underlying concept for the model.
The note of music is the primary parameter, with the direct relationship to a particular chosen song literally. The notes are then translated into corresponding frequencies in order to obtain a set of executable parameter. Secondary parameters, such as beats of the music, point of the beats, duration of each note and arb level would be necessary to determine the form of the shell in 3 dimensional space. Laws are used to govern the undulation of the openings beneath the shells.
