Impression of my site

I thought of development with my site. 8 Fulton street area in DUMBO was not as developed as is now. It is now very active(like the men in my collage), and all eyes/ interest is one direction (represented by image on bottom left)....Brooklyn Bridge Park. I also thought about busy and never forgetting nature because of the waterfront and park (the nature image in the background).

The word “connection”

Thinking about the word connection, a bridge comes to mind its major connecting elements whether its cables or its pathway connection comes to mind. Links of a chain and an interlocking object (figure in the background). As always WIFI connection is also represented in the top left and electrical connections at the bottom right.

Based on the program of my project

I want to focus on HYBRID since my project combines two elements of the arts. I thought about what similarities fashion and music entail and came up with RHYTHM. Rhythm of a walking person and rhythm of a musical beat. Waves of sound and shape of the human silhouette are represented in this collage.

Thinking about development in heights and pathways sort of the way music flows through your mind and the perspectives in which fashion can be viewed.

This model defines my connection board three separate entities of different thicknesses connected like links on a chain

This model evolves from the first model and incorporates a bridging effect, thus giving height and volume.

The spirals of this model represents the process of drawing the treble clef and the shape represents the way sound waves are ejected from its source whether by the feet of a model or musical instruments.

Sound waves emerging from its source goes from a higher density to a lower as defined in this model

The movement in the image in the center of the third collage reflects an 'up and down' movement  

TAKING FROM THESE CONCEPT MODELS IM USING: the way sound waves are ejected from its source whether by the feet of a model or musical instruments. Interpretation of these waves and the waterfront gives me a series of rings also incorporating the connecting elements of the surrounding bridges very close to my site.
