The Pavilion is designed to housing all forms of performing arts activities in different scales for the community. Our infrastructure itself is the physical art object, the medium, to be molded from the tools, being the users. The users of our infrastructure use their body as a medium to induce the changes that occur to the architecture. The outcome is a configuration that is a reflection of the user reaching the point of contentment with the space for their particular activity and scale. Certain mechanisms are used to gauge the activity levels that trigger the changes that occur within the infrastructure. These mechanisms are tools that we have identified that measure one’s personal satisfaction; density, frequency, movement intensity, pitch, and duration. The spatial configuration has two primary scales, the individual and the collective, and the transitions between them.
