LIVE FOREVER
Michael Jackson Memorial Design Competition 3rd Prize
This monument embodies a holistic reflection on Jackson’s life. While on trial for child molestation charges Jackson said:“Why can’t you share your bed? The most loving thing to do is to share your bed with someone. It’s very charming. It’s very sweet. It’s what the whole world should do”. The quote implies the dialectic manner Michael lived life by. Innocence clashes with social ideals amidst the future buildings of the Jackson Casino in Las Vegas, sharing Jackson’s personal bed with the world.
“The way an ordinary domestic object is transformed into a site which is full both of a desire for universal love and something much more problematic is clever. This casts the bed as a public social space, at odds with our normal understanding of its significance.” - Sam Jacob (FAT)
“One of the few entries to tackle the idea of behind-closeddoors MJ head on, and further does with a kind of cheeky minimalism that seems entirely appropriate. If we want the memorial to take on the full scope of MJ’s superstar/reclusive/ shady persona, this might be the one...” - Christopher Hawthorne (LA Times Architecture Critic)

ABSTRACT Architecture is an art that utilizes a broad palette of materials. Among the newest and least understood group of materials are advanced composites. Advanced composites are engineered materials that utilize two or more distinct, high performance materials, which remain separate in finished structure. They boast high strength to weight ratios, opening architectural possibilities previously unexplored by current building materials. Relatively little architectural specific research has been performed investigating specific applications of a certain complex carbon fiber truss system. This study began with a survey of composites in architecture and culminated in the investigation of the current and possible uses of complex composite truss systems in architecture. My work included the analysis of the intrinsic and extrinsic properties of the materials and geometric configurations, investigation of current uses, and postulation about possible future applications. This speculation occurred between myself, my colleagues, and my professors. The postulations Complex truss systems provide vast developed to fruition through examination and evaluation using criteria and are Complex truss systems provide vast expressed through a series of informative diagrams that portray the material possibilities Architecture. Some possibilities ininArchitecture. Some characteristics, pro’s and con’s, and economic areas thatcould could quickly embrace andconsiderations for each possible areas that quickly embrace and use. this The theoretical implications of my research are far reaching and could lead utilize newtechnology technology include utilize this new include to greater and more serious investigation of the use of complex composite truss primary building structure and concrete primary building structure and concrete systems in architecture.
