SONIC TOPOGRAPHY (CLUSTER STUDY)

In a traditional organ, the location of every pipe is fixed. This experiment dissolves the rigid geometry of the windchest. The 12 semitones of the octave become mobile objects in space. What happens when we organize tones not by musical harmony, but by spatial proximity? When we physically overlap dissonant intervals, an acoustic cluster emerges—a texture made of pure interference. We use this to simulate pipe arrangements for contemporary façades designed to create acoustic friction.
