The sound of space in 3 robotic prototypes: Introducing 6-axis robotic fabrication to shape macro- and micro-geometries for acoustic performance

Öz:

Sound performance plays a significant role in the experience of space. The-atre and performance spaces provide a context where acoustic and spatiotempo-ral characteristics can be informed through the controlled robotic fabrication ofmacro- and micro-geometries, by using mathematical principles as a driver fordesign variations and machine code.This essay discusses a short history of relationships between sound and ge-ometry; from acoustic reflection methods (Kircher, 1673); to a theatre seatingmatrix (Saunders, 1790); to positioning of individual listeners and their specificacoustic environments (Russel 1883); to sound concentrations in spherical shapes(Cremer, 1982, Vercammen, 2012); to current strategies for acoustically perfor-mative scattering surfaces (Reinhardt, 2012, 2015).The essay further introduces empirical research into robotic prototypes thattest the acoustic effects of complex architectural geometries, with a focus on ro-botic fabrication of macro geometries that change the colouration of sound; andmicro-geometric surfaces that can be applied to improve acoustic performanceby scattering. It presents a 6-axis fabrication process for acoustic scale prototypes,based on a range of mathematical equations that regulate physical properties ofspatial surfaces and pattern details. Here, generative tools and robotic tooling pro-cesses are linked to the angle and cavity depth in a surface medium. The essayconcludes with a discussion and an outline of future strategies for the acousticperformance in multi-talker work environments or daily life scenarios.
