The legacy of the modernist project exists in the continued pursuit of centralized and homogenous orders. Such orders relentlessly self-assemble in a void of Silence, stripping the world of difference and discrete realities. Operating extensively alongside the cross-disciplinary theories of Michel Serres, this thesis is a series of investigations into the logic and role of Noise in architecture and its overlap with the social, urban, formal, and cultural spheres. At its core a critique of the conservative and unchallenged preference for Silence, this project reconsiders Noise as both the inter-ference and inter-mediary fundamental to the emergence of Sound, rather than grounds for its dysfunction.
