Below is my initial vision of the percussion district, including a view from underneath the unfinished bridge Red comes to after an epic climb.
I have been reading into the last section of the story, 'The Kingdom of Sound.' where the musical note citizens culminate at the base of the Conductor statue. Initially uncertain as to how the Conductor statue may look, I was pointed in the direction of more abstract human forms and Futurist sculpture and created the silhouettes below.
Morning Emily :) You're onto something with those conductor designs: I like the very simple 'triangular' heads of 1 and 3. I like the 'sleeves' effect of 3, but also the up-and-down simplicity of 1. I was wondering - in terms of practicality, if the conductor's torso were to have a sort of 'ball and socket' feel - so its rounded bottom sits inside the 'cup' of the sculptor's waist - we'd still have the gap between the various sections, but there'd be a greater sense of how the sculpture would move and animate?
