Abstract

Violin performance during “Space and Sound - Striving for Perfect Resonance”, an event organized by Bibliotheca Alexandrina. The event focused on sound and space. Two very different approaches, the architect and the instrument maker, with one common goal : to strive for perfect resonance. What the architect and the instrument maker have in common in their approach to design is that, both use the senses as well as the mind in their ambition to create new and greater experiences. Kjetil Thorsen’s and Hans Johannsson’s works are developed with the implementation of the latest technology and scientific research to improve the performance of the design.
