“The sounds which animated the great Baths of Caracalla nearly 2000 years ago are no longer audible, yet the ruins themselves stand like a gigantic musical score – una partitura architettonica – waiting only to be transformed into audible sound, into an universal symphony.” A. C.
A site-specific project that will evoke the ancient Baths of Caracalla. A sound texture in a continuous architectonical evolution manifests itself in intervals of silence.
