The process combined aesthetics and intuition with mathematical systems, showcasing how art and science are balanced-by way of music and architecture-to address the essential technical aspects of music along with emotion and energy. The book analyzes three representative chamber works and presents a trove of primary sources: letters, diaries, notes, photographs, sketches, and person-to-person conversations. What emerges are patterns of direct parallels between how Xenakis characterized the process of musical creation and his design of The Reynolds Desert House. "Xenakis Creates in Architecture and Music" is a testament to the singularly innovative and creative mind of Iannis Xenakis. |
