ARCHITECTURE, PURE CREATION OF THE MIND – WHAT DOES MUSIC MEAN?

At the beginner of the text, we directly show that if we want to reach harmony,we also need to proportion. This make sense lots of work but it also creates arguably thing: Don’t we reach harmony without proportion? And in my opinion we can not limit that way of reaching harmony. I approve proportion is one of the best way for reach that but without caring proportion, we can also find a way to create harmony. Next pages author more talk about axis which creates harmony and use specific examples to make his thoughts more understandable. He refers nature’s perfectionist calculation, easible understanding proportion and accord. So he reach that clear statement with these referations. It reveals that new discussion topic about if we can’t read work-art easily, should we say that it’s not a succesful artpiece? On the other hand he said that pure creation of the mind is a product of clear statement,unity of the work,fundamental attitude and a character . I totally agree this opinion because when talking about pureness, these qualities are essential. Other significant topic is poetic emotion. According to text, if there is an architectural thing, there is also visible and measurable thing we need. (which is called plastic) Without plastic, architect cant emphasize his feelings,art and etc. So we can easily say that plastic is crucial quality for architecture. Since here I just talk about the text. After this sentence thoughts are come about what does music mean? This video is not refer that means of music.When we watch this video, we notice that perception manage us when we see some blocks. Author use some common musical rhythm to emphasize this topic. This also made both good and bad results. When we look at it in artistic, it’s a disaster I think. Noone wants their production remember as block. On the other hand, when it becomes a block, it turns a recollective art. So here comes a question : Which is better? easily remember or artistic remember?

In greeks classical works we again encunter Myceneans' trace. And they built a lot of independence citadels and these kind of things. In literature Homer mention about this situation because Myceneans has overseas power in these times. Myceneans have also their own tradition and when they use form they give a name it and they use it in almost every buildings. They have both trade and militay power.
