now<00:00:55.079> I<00:00:55.920> think<00:00:55.980> that<00:00:56.100> this<00:00:56.280> is<00:00:56.460> a<00:00:56.699> great
now I think that this is a great now I think that this is a great metaphor<00:00:57.300> for<00:00:57.480> the<00:00:57.600> state<00:00:57.719> of<00:00:57.899> architecture metaphor for the state of architecture metaphor for the state of architecture and<00:00:58.620> architects<00:00:59.100> today<00:00:59.219> we<00:00:59.940> are<00:01:00.120> for and architects today we are for and architects today we are for decorative<00:01:00.660> purposes<00:01:01.079> only decorative purposes only decorative purposes only now<00:01:03.359> who<00:01:03.780> do<00:01:04.019> we<00:01:04.199> have<00:01:04.320> to<00:01:04.500> blame<00:01:04.799> we<00:01:05.519> can<00:01:05.640> only now who do we have to blame we can only now who do we have to blame we can only blame<00:01:06.060> ourselves<00:01:06.420> over<00:01:07.020> the<00:01:07.260> last<00:01:07.320> 50<00:01:07.619> years blame ourselves over the last 50 years blame ourselves over the last 50 years the<00:01:09.240> design<00:01:09.360> and<00:01:09.600> construction<00:01:09.840> industry<00:01:10.500> has the design and construction industry has the design and construction industry has gotten<00:01:10.979> much<00:01:11.100> more<00:01:11.280> complex<00:01:11.640> has<00:01:12.060> gotten<00:01:12.360> much gotten much more complex has gotten much gotten much more complex has gotten much more<00:01:12.659> litigious<00:01:13.619> and<00:01:14.100> we<00:01:14.280> Architects<00:01:14.820> are more litigious and we Architects are more litigious and we Architects are cowards<00:01:15.900> and<00:01:16.320> so<00:01:16.500> as<00:01:16.680> we<00:01:16.920> have<00:01:17.040> faced cowards and so as we have faced cowards and so as we have faced liability<00:01:17.760> we<00:01:18.180> have<00:01:18.299> stepped<00:01:18.720> back<00:01:18.900> and<00:01:19.619> back liability we have stepped back and back liability we have stepped back and back and<00:01:20.460> unfortunately<00:01:20.880> where<00:01:21.240> there<00:01:21.479> is and unfortunately where there is and unfortunately where there is liability<00:01:22.020> guess<00:01:22.320> what<00:01:22.500> there<00:01:22.680> is liability guess what there is liability guess what there is power power power So<00:01:25.680> eventually<00:01:25.979> we<00:01:26.220> have<00:01:26.340> found<00:01:26.520> ourselves<00:01:27.000> in So eventually we have found ourselves in So eventually we have found ourselves in a<00:01:27.600> totally<00:01:27.840> marginalized<00:01:28.500> position<00:01:28.680> way<00:01:29.220> over a totally marginalized position way over a totally marginalized position way over here here here now<00:01:31.200> what<00:01:31.380> did<00:01:31.500> we<00:01:31.680> do<00:01:31.799> we're<00:01:32.159> cowards<00:01:32.759> but now what did we do we're cowards but now what did we do we're cowards but we're<00:01:33.180> smart<00:01:33.420> cowards we're smart cowards we're smart cowards and<00:01:35.280> so<00:01:35.460> we<00:01:35.579> redefined<00:01:36.299> this<00:01:36.600> marginalized and so we redefined this marginalized and so we redefined this marginalized position<00:01:37.380> as<00:01:37.740> the<00:01:37.979> place<00:01:38.159> of<00:01:38.340> architecture<00:01:38.820> we position as the place of architecture we position as the place of architecture we announced<00:01:39.540> hey<00:01:40.020> architecture<00:01:40.740> it's<00:01:41.040> over announced hey architecture it's over announced hey architecture it's over here<00:01:41.640> in<00:01:42.119> this<00:01:42.360> autonomous<00:01:42.840> language<00:01:43.200> we're here in this autonomous language we're here in this autonomous language we're going<00:01:44.040> to<00:01:44.159> seed<00:01:44.579> control<00:01:45.060> of<00:01:45.420> processes going to seed control of processes going to seed control of processes and<00:01:47.100> we<00:01:47.220> are<00:01:47.400> going<00:01:47.579> to<00:01:47.820> do<00:01:48.360> something<00:01:48.659> that and we are going to do something that and we are going to do something that was<00:01:49.320> horrible<00:01:49.680> for<00:01:49.920> the<00:01:50.040> profession was horrible for the profession was horrible for the profession we<00:01:51.840> actually<00:01:52.020> created<00:01:52.380> an<00:01:52.619> artificial<00:01:52.979> Schism we actually created an artificial Schism we actually created an artificial Schism between<00:01:54.060> creation<00:01:54.720> and<00:01:55.439> execution between creation and execution between creation and execution as<00:01:57.420> if<00:01:57.540> you<00:01:57.720> could<00:01:57.899> actually<00:01:58.140> create<00:01:58.439> without as if you could actually create without as if you could actually create without knowing<00:01:59.579> how<00:01:59.700> to<00:01:59.820> execute<00:02:00.180> if<00:02:00.899> you<00:02:00.960> could knowing how to execute if you could knowing how to execute if you could actually<00:02:01.320> execute<00:02:01.799> without<00:02:01.979> knowing<00:02:02.399> how<00:02:02.579> to actually execute without knowing how to actually execute without knowing how to create create create now<00:02:04.200> something<00:02:04.680> else<00:02:04.920> happened<00:02:05.280> and<00:02:06.000> that's now something else happened and that's now something else happened and that's what<00:02:06.299> we<00:02:06.420> began<00:02:06.659> to<00:02:06.840> sell<00:02:07.020> the<00:02:07.259> world<00:02:07.439> that what we began to sell the world that what we began to sell the world that architecture<00:02:08.459> was<00:02:08.640> created<00:02:09.000> by<00:02:09.420> individuals architecture was created by individuals architecture was created by individuals creating<00:02:10.560> genius<00:02:11.220> sketches creating genius sketches creating genius sketches and<00:02:13.140> that<00:02:13.319> the<00:02:13.560> incredible<00:02:13.920> amount<00:02:14.160> of<00:02:14.400> effort and that the incredible amount of effort and that the incredible amount of effort to<00:02:15.000> deliver<00:02:15.120> those<00:02:15.599> sketches<00:02:16.020> for<00:02:16.620> years<00:02:16.860> and to deliver those sketches for years and to deliver those sketches for years and years<00:02:17.220> and<00:02:17.400> years<00:02:17.640> is<00:02:18.060> not<00:02:18.239> only<00:02:18.360> something<00:02:18.780> to years and years is not only something to years and years is not only something to be<00:02:19.260> derided be derided be derided but<00:02:20.819> we<00:02:20.940> would<00:02:21.060> merely<00:02:21.360> write<00:02:21.599> it<00:02:21.780> off<00:02:21.959> as but we would merely write it off as but we would merely write it off as merely<00:02:23.340> execution merely execution merely execution now<00:02:25.680> I'd<00:02:25.860> argue<00:02:26.280> that<00:02:26.400> that<00:02:26.580> is<00:02:26.760> as<00:02:27.000> absurd<00:02:27.540> as now I'd argue that that is as absurd as now I'd argue that that is as absurd as stating<00:02:28.140> that<00:02:28.860> 30<00:02:29.099> minutes<00:02:29.400> of<00:02:29.700> copulation<00:02:30.239> is stating that 30 minutes of copulation is stating that 30 minutes of copulation is the<00:02:30.780> creative<00:02:31.200> act the creative act the creative act and<00:02:32.819> nine<00:02:33.060> months<00:02:33.540> of<00:02:33.900> gestation<00:02:34.379> and<00:02:35.160> God and nine months of gestation and God and nine months of gestation and God forbid forbid forbid 24<00:02:37.200> hours<00:02:37.680> of<00:02:38.160> child<00:02:38.340> labor 24 hours of child labor 24 hours of child labor is<00:02:39.660> merely<00:02:40.020> execution is merely execution is merely execution so<00:02:41.819> what<00:02:41.940> do<00:02:42.060> we<00:02:42.180> Architects<00:02:42.660> need<00:02:42.780> to<00:02:42.900> do<00:02:42.959> we so what do we Architects need to do we so what do we Architects need to do we need<00:02:43.260> to<00:02:43.440> stitch<00:02:43.739> back<00:02:44.060> creation<00:02:45.060> and need to stitch back creation and need to stitch back creation and execution<00:02:46.260> and<00:02:46.860> we<00:02:46.980> need<00:02:47.099> to<00:02:47.280> start<00:02:47.459> authoring execution and we need to start authoring execution and we need to start authoring processes<00:02:48.720> again<00:02:48.959> instead<00:02:49.860> of<00:02:49.980> authoring processes again instead of authoring processes again instead of authoring objects<00:02:51.300> now<00:02:51.660> if<00:02:51.840> we<00:02:51.959> do<00:02:52.140> this<00:02:52.319> I<00:02:52.739> believe<00:02:52.920> we objects now if we do this I believe we objects now if we do this I believe we can<00:02:53.400> go<00:02:53.819> back<00:02:54.060> 50<00:02:54.300> years<00:02:54.540> and<00:02:54.840> start can go back 50 years and start can go back 50 years and start reinjecting<00:02:55.739> agency<00:02:56.580> social<00:02:57.300> engineering reinjecting agency social engineering reinjecting agency social engineering back<00:02:58.560> into<00:02:58.800> architecture back into architecture back into architecture now<00:03:00.660> there<00:03:00.840> are<00:03:00.959> all<00:03:01.080> kinds<00:03:01.260> of<00:03:01.319> things<00:03:01.440> that now there are all kinds of things that now there are all kinds of things that we<00:03:01.739> Architects<00:03:02.160> need<00:03:02.280> to<00:03:02.400> learn<00:03:02.519> how<00:03:02.700> to<00:03:02.819> do we Architects need to learn how to do we Architects need to learn how to do like<00:03:03.300> managing<00:03:03.959> contracts<00:03:04.440>

and<00:09:36.959> effectively<00:09:37.620> we<00:09:37.920> created<00:09:38.160> what<00:09:38.339> we do so and effectively we created what we do so and effectively we created what we

architecture now that I would say is architecture now that I would say is architecture performing<00:11:16.380> it<00:11:16.620> is<00:11:16.800> taking<00:11:17.040> the<00:11:17.279> hand<00:11:17.459> of<00:11:17.640> the performing it is taking the hand of the performing it is taking the hand of the architect<00:11:18.180> to<00:11:19.019> actually<00:11:19.260> remove<00:11:19.620> the<00:11:19.860> hand<00:11:19.980> of architect to actually remove the hand of architect to actually remove the hand of the<00:11:20.279> architect<00:11:20.519>

artistic<00:11:22.079> director the artistic director the artistic director I'll<00:11:24.779> go<00:11:24.959> through<00:11:25.079> the<00:11:25.260> three<00:11:25.500> basic I'll go through the three basic I'll go through the three basic configurations<00:11:26.339> this<00:11:26.820> is<00:11:27.180> the<00:11:27.779> flat<00:11:28.019> floor configurations this is the flat floor configurations this is the flat floor configuration<00:11:28.860> you<00:11:29.579> notice<00:11:29.880> that<00:11:30.000> there's<00:11:30.120> no configuration you notice that there's no configuration you notice that there's no proscenium<00:11:30.779> the<00:11:31.260> balconies<00:11:31.620> have<00:11:31.800> been proscenium the balconies have been proscenium the balconies have been raised<00:11:32.279> up<00:11:32.399> there<00:11:32.700> are<00:11:32.880> no<00:11:32.940> seats<00:11:33.300> the<00:11:33.480> floor raised up there are no seats the floor raised up there are no seats the floor in<00:11:33.899> the<00:11:34.079> auditorium<00:11:34.560> is<00:11:34.800> flat in the auditorium is flat in the auditorium is flat the<00:11:36.300> first<00:11:36.480> configuration<00:11:37.140> is<00:11:37.380> easy<00:11:37.560> to the first configuration is easy to the first configuration is easy to understand<00:11:37.920> the<00:11:38.339> balconies<00:11:38.760> come<00:11:38.940> down<00:11:39.180> you understand the balconies come down you understand the balconies come down you see<00:11:40.019> that<00:11:40.260> the<00:11:40.680> orchestra<00:11:41.459> begins<00:11:41.940> to<00:11:42.060> have<00:11:42.180> a see that the orchestra begins to have a see that the orchestra begins to have a rake<00:11:42.480> that's<00:11:42.779> frontal<00:11:43.200> towards<00:11:43.560> the<00:11:43.680> end rake that's frontal towards the end rake that's frontal towards the end stage<00:11:44.160> and<00:11:44.519> the<00:11:44.640> seats<00:11:44.940> come<00:11:45.120> in stage and the seats come in stage and the seats come in the<00:11:46.500> third<00:11:46.620> configuration<00:11:47.100> is<00:11:47.279> a<00:11:47.459> little the third configuration is a little the third configuration is a little harder<00:11:47.940> to<00:11:48.180> understand<00:11:48.600> here<00:11:49.140> you<00:11:49.320> see<00:11:49.500> that harder to understand here you see that harder to understand here you see that the<00:11:50.339> balconies<00:11:50.760> actually<00:11:51.000> have<00:11:51.240> to<00:11:51.360> move<00:11:51.540> out the balconies actually have to move out the balconies actually have to move out of<00:11:51.959> the<00:11:52.140> way<00:11:52.260> in<00:11:52.560> order<00:11:52.680> to<00:11:52.920> bring<00:11:53.160> a<00:11:53.640> Thrust of the way in order to bring a Thrust of the way in order to bring a Thrust into<00:11:54.180> the<00:11:54.360>

to<00:11:56.279> actually<00:11:56.459> change<00:11:56.820> their<00:11:57.180> direction need to actually change their direction need to actually change their direction and<00:11:57.959> change<00:11:58.200> the<00:11:58.380> rake<00:11:58.680> to<00:11:59.040> allow<00:11:59.279> that<00:11:59.459> to and change the rake to allow that to and change the rake to allow that to happen<00:11:59.760> and<00:12:00.060> I'll<00:12:00.240> do<00:12:00.360> it<00:12:00.480> again<00:12:00.540> so<00:12:00.779> you<00:12:00.899> can happen and I'll do it again so you can happen and I'll do it again so you can see<00:12:01.140> it see it see it there<00:12:02.160> you<00:12:02.399> see<00:12:02.579> it's<00:12:02.700> the<00:12:03.000> Balkan<00:12:03.420> side there you see it's the Balkan side there you see it's the Balkan side balconies<00:12:04.079> for<00:12:04.500> the<00:12:04.740> proscenium balconies for the proscenium balconies for the proscenium and<00:12:06.660> there<00:12:06.779> it<00:12:06.959> is<00:12:07.079> in<00:12:07.260> the<00:12:07.380> thrust and there it is in the thrust and there it is in the thrust configuration configuration configuration in<00:12:09.240> order<00:12:09.360> to<00:12:09.660> do<00:12:09.839> that in order to do that in order to do that again<00:12:11.100> we<00:12:11.519> needed<00:12:11.820> a<00:12:11.940> client<00:12:12.120> who's<00:12:12.300> willing again we needed a client who's willing again we needed a client who's willing to<00:12:12.839> take<00:12:12.959> educational<00:12:13.380> risks<00:12:13.800> and<00:12:13.980> they<00:12:14.100> told to take educational risks and they told to take educational risks and they told us<00:12:14.399> one<00:12:14.640> important<00:12:15.000>

they were first ones to do it but they were willing<00:12:22.500> for<00:12:22.680> us<00:12:22.800> to<00:12:22.980> apply<00:12:23.279> Technologies willing for us to apply Technologies willing for us to apply Technologies from<00:12:24.240> other<00:12:24.480> areas<00:12:24.899> that<00:12:25.320> already<00:12:25.440> had from other areas that already had from other areas that already had Fail-Safe<00:12:26.220> mechanisms<00:12:26.700> to<00:12:26.880> this<00:12:27.000> building Fail-Safe mechanisms to this building Fail-Safe mechanisms to this building and<00:12:28.260> the<00:12:28.440> solution<00:12:28.740> in<00:12:28.980> terms<00:12:29.399> of<00:12:29.519> the and the solution in terms of the and the solution in terms of the balconies<00:12:30.060> was<00:12:30.360> to<00:12:30.540> use<00:12:30.720> something<00:12:30.959> that<00:12:31.200> we balconies was to use something that we balconies was to use something that we all<00:12:31.500> know<00:12:31.740> as<00:12:32.459> a<00:12:32.760> scoreboard<00:12:33.060> lift<00:12:33.540> now<00:12:34.200> if<00:12:34.380> you all know as a scoreboard lift now if you all know as a scoreboard lift now if you were<00:12:34.620> to<00:12:34.800> take<00:12:35.100> a<00:12:35.700> scoreboard<00:12:36.120> and<00:12:36.480> drop<00:12:36.660> it<00:12:36.839> on were to take a scoreboard and drop it on were to take a scoreboard and drop it on dirt<00:12:37.320> and<00:12:37.500> whiskey<00:12:37.980> that<00:12:38.760> would<00:12:38.940> be<00:12:39.060> bad dirt and whiskey that would be bad dirt and whiskey that would be bad if<00:12:40.680> you<00:12:40.800> are<00:12:40.920> not<00:12:41.040> able<00:12:41.339> to<00:12:41.459> take<00:12:41.640> the if you are not able to take the if you are not able to take the scoreboard<00:12:42.240> out<00:12:42.779> of<00:12:42.959> the<00:12:43.139> arena<00:12:43.500> and<00:12:43.860> be<00:12:43.920> able scoreboard out of the arena and be able scoreboard out of the arena and be able to<00:12:44.160> do<00:12:44.220> the<00:12:44.339> Ice<00:12:44.519> capades<00:12:44.940> the<00:12:45.180> next<00:12:45.300> night to do the Ice capades the next night to do the Ice capades the next night that<00:12:46.079> would<00:12:46.200> also<00:12:46.500> be<00:12:46.680> bad that would also be bad that would also be bad and<00:12:48.120> so<00:12:48.300> this<00:12:48.540> technology<00:12:48.959> already<00:12:49.500> had<00:12:49.920> all and so this technology already had all and so this technology already had all the<00:12:50.279> Fail-Safe<00:12:50.760> mechanisms<00:12:51.300> and<00:12:51.720> allowed<00:12:52.260> the the Fail-Safe mechanisms and allowed the the Fail-Safe mechanisms and allowed the theater<00:12:52.800> and<00:12:53.459> our<00:12:53.639> client<00:12:53.880> to<00:12:54.480> actually<00:12:54.779> do theater and our client to actually do theater and our client to actually do this<00:12:55.380> with<00:12:55.920> confidence<00:12:56.279> that<00:12:56.700> they<00:12:56.820> would<00:12:56.940> be this with confidence that they would be this with confidence that they would be able<00:12:57.240> to<00:12:57.360> change<00:12:57.540> over<00:12:57.720> the<00:12:57.959> configurations able to change over the configurations able to change over the configurations at<00:12:59.339> will at will at will the<00:13:00.720> second<00:13:00.899> technology<00:13:01.740> that<00:13:02.160> we<00:13:02.279> applied the second technology that we applied the second technology that we applied was<00:13:02.760> actually<00:13:03.000> using<00:13:03.360> things<00:13:03.600> that<00:13:03.839> you<00:13:04.139> know was actually using things that you know was actually using things that you know from<00:13:05.220> the<00:13:05.639> stage<00:13:05.880> side<00:13:06.180> of<00:13:06.360> an<00:13:06.480> opera<00:13:06.779> house from the stage side of an

back to Flat floor changing the rake back to Flat floor changing the rake again<00:13:17.220> in<00:13:17.519> essence<00:13:17.880> you<00:13:18.300> can<00:13:18.360> begin<00:13:18.540> to<00:13:18.839> Define again in essence you can begin to Define again in essence you can begin to Define rakes<00:13:19.620> and<00:13:20.220> viewing<00:13:21.060> angles<00:13:21.360> of<00:13:21.660> people<00:13:21.839> in rakes and viewing angles of people in rakes and viewing angles of people in the<00:13:22.380> orchestra<00:13:23.160> seating<00:13:23.459> at<00:13:23.880> will the orchestra seating at will the orchestra seating at will right<00:13:25.200> here<00:13:25.500> you<00:13:25.680> see<00:13:25.800> the<00:13:25.980> chairs<00:13:26.279> being<00:13:26.459> spun right here you see the chairs being spun right here you see the chairs being spun around<00:13:26.940> to<00:13:27.300> go<00:13:27.480> from<00:13:27.779> proscenium<00:13:28.620> or<00:13:28.860> end around to go from proscenium or end around to go from proscenium or end stage<00:13:29.279> to<00:13:29.459> thrust<00:13:29.760> configuration stage to thrust configuration stage

the proscenium also as far as we know this<00:13:34.019> is<00:13:34.139> the<00:13:34.260> first<00:13:34.440> building<00:13:34.680> in<00:13:34.980> the<00:13:35.100> world this is the first building in the world this is the first building in the world in<00:13:35.399> which<00:13:35.579> the<00:13:35.700> proscenium<00:13:36.180> can<00:13:36.480> entirely<00:13:36.899> fly in which the proscenium can entirely fly in which the proscenium can entirely fly out<00:13:37.500> of<00:13:37.620> the<00:13:37.740> space<00:13:37.940> here<00:13:38.940> you<00:13:39.120> see<00:13:39.240> the out of the space here you see the out of the space here you see the various<00:13:39.720> acoustic<00:13:40.200> baffles<00:13:40.620> as<00:13:40.860> well<00:13:41.040> as<00:13:41.220> the various acoustic baffles as well as the various acoustic baffles as well as the flying<00:13:42.060> mechanisms<00:13:42.600> and<00:13:43.019> catwalks<00:13:43.620> over<00:13:43.740> the flying mechanisms and catwalks over the flying mechanisms and catwalks over the auditorium auditorium auditorium and<00:13:45.600> ultimately<00:13:45.899> up<00:13:46.320> in<00:13:46.440> the<00:13:46.560> fly<00:13:46.680> Tower<00:13:47.160> the and ultimately up in the fly Tower the and ultimately up in the fly Tower the scene<00:13:48.720> sets<00:13:49.139> that<00:13:49.260> allow<00:13:49.500> the scene sets that allow the scene sets that allow the transformations<00:13:50.160> to<00:13:50.399> occur transformations to occur transformations to occur as<00:13:52.320> I<00:13:52.500> said<00:13:52.620> all<00:13:52.980> that<00:13:53.160> was<00:13:53.399> in<00:13:53.639> service<00:13:54.000> of as I said all that was in service of as I said all that was in service of creating<00:13:54.899> a<00:13:55.200> flexible<00:13:55.620> yet<00:13:56.160> affordable creating a flexible yet affordable creating a flexible yet affordable configuration<00:13:57.779> but<00:13:58.620> we<00:13:58.740> got<00:13:58.920> this<00:13:59.100> other configuration but we got this other configuration but we got this other benefit<00:13:59.519> and<00:14:00.000> that<00:14:00.120> was<00:14:00.360> the<00:14:00.779> ability<00:14:01.019> of<00:14:01.139> the benefit and that was the ability of the benefit and that was the ability of the perimeter<00:14:01.680> to<00:14:01.860> suddenly<00:14:02.160> engage<00:14:02.459> Dallas<00:14:02.700> on perimeter to suddenly engage Dallas on perimeter to suddenly engage Dallas on the<00:14:03.180> outside the outside the outside here<00:14:04.980> you<00:14:05.160> see<00:14:05.279> the<00:14:05.399> building<00:14:05.579> in<00:14:05.820> his<00:14:05.940> current here you see the building in his current here you see the building in his current state<00:14:06.420> with<00:14:06.720> the<00:14:06.899> blinds<00:14:07.320> closed<00:14:07.620> this<00:14:07.860>
