Through Drudgery, Dreams, and Dread
Built for the Symphony of Construction 2023.

Ian and Lee did an amazing job creating a piece of music that sparks your imagination. I listened to it quite a few times picking out different sections or sounds that brought feelings or potential build ideas to mind. Settling on just one concept was definitely no easy task! In the end I simplified things down to three primary sections of the song; and decided to portray those themes in a fantasy forest setting.
The first to me has a slightly eerie, mysterious, industrial feel to it with the hammers, wind, and ticking sound. 0 - 1:15
In the middle the mood shifts to something magical, serene, and peaceful. 1:15 - 1:45
Lastly, the final portion is ominous, foreboding, and has a feeling of unknown, almost other-worldly danger, especially the last few moments. 1:45 - 3:03
There are lots of ways you could interpret the music, and the same is true of my finished model.
It was a very fun and unique way to approach building a scene, and pushed me to think about things in ways I normally wouldn't. Throughout the build I tried to use colors, textures, and layout to emphasize the corresponding themes I took from the music. I would love to hear what you thought of while listening to the piece that inspired this build!
