Bricks of a Pleasing Ratio

= What is it? =

Bricks of a Pleasing Ratio is a series of Music/Dance visions of the underlying principles, processes and emotions of Architecture.

It is essentially a Ballet, whose form is pre-composed, but whose content has yet to be determined. Much of the music and dance involved will be improvised in the moment of performance. Bricks of a Pleasing Ratio seeks to define both that which can and that which cannot be defined: Where does Architecture begin? What makes up a Building? How is a Building constructed? What is the Soul of a Building? When and how is this Soul created? What does Architecture teach Us about Ourselves? Where is the Boundary between Architecture and Humanity? Can a Building Live? What materials make up a Building? Why do we Build? Do we build to prove Our Humanity?

It has been said that ''Architecture is frozen Music. ''

It has also been said that Writing about Music is like Dancing about Architecture
