You may ask yourself how acoustics could be described as visual (or vice versa), and the person to answer would be the legendary late, great architecture photographer, Julius Shulman. Luckily for us, his legacy is brought to light in tonight's screening of Visual Acoustics: The Modernism of Julius Shulman, which illustrates how aesthetics, especially by way of architecture, resonate in a way that goes beyond "seeing." Narrated by Dustin Hoffman, the film shows how Schulman's documentation of the buildings that we build up, and sometimes tear down, is as much of an art form as the structures themselves. As explained by the master himself, "architecture affects everybody," whether or not we chose to notice it.
