Geoff Manaugh of BLDGBLOG joins WFMU's DJ/Rupture as a guest selecter, offering some musical picks and discussion about the architecture of sound -- and the sound of architecture.
"Geoff's a consistently fascinating writer on architecture, contributing editor to Wired UK, and a former DJ. Expect discussion to range from architectural acoustics & unexpected sample-discovery to a selection of Geoff's favorite techno."
The discussion ranges from cave-mapping to musical accompaniments of architectural spaces to urban exploration, intermixed with some hardcore techno.
