Iannis Xenakis
Marseille: Editions Parenthèses, 2006
One of the very rare writings of a composer and musician to sound sounding rooms and architecture. Xenakis worked with Corbusier, designed the rhythmic structure of the facade of the University of Chandighar that Corbusier built and developed with him, and Edgar Varèse the Phillips Pavilion at the World Exhibition in Brussels 1956th In his book unfolds Xenakis its comprehensive mathematical and structural knowledge to overcome all the linear constraints of musical thinking in favor of spatial dimensions. Finally, he sketches the vision the cosmic city that will unfold in the vertical dimension. [Published in Françoise Choay, L'Urbanisme, Utopies et Réalité. Le Seuil, 1965]
