After the first tkc archop, Aaron Gomes of Sound N Vision Foundation and tkc archop curator Michael Pinheiro have been planning a collaboration. The challenge was to unite the experiences of music and architecture.

Thursday archop takes part in Lucky Dragons ongoing series of experiments into the possibilities of using skin contact between performers as a means of transmitting and controlling data and creating a positive social environment. Audience members are invited to participate building up and breaking down resistive networks by passing signals from skin to skin.

Below is a video of  Tony Pavone (Canby Architecture Studio) “playing” the installation mock-up for the Lucky Dragons show.  It was built with the help of  Clay Taylor (Mangini Associates), Ryan Fitzpatrick and Michael Pinheiro (both of Taylor Teter Partnership).  The full-scale mock-up will be disassembled and installed at the Cellar Door with the help of COS Architecture and Construction students.  Over sixty people are expected at the concert where they will participate in a unique concert event made possible by the intersection of music and design.  Also below is a video of an earlier experiment by Lucky Dragons.
