Burnet Road Corridor Level Up Design Works LLC “The Crowned Violet” AIPP Project The Crowned Violet Mockups An homage to the evolving generational dynamic within the Brentwood, Allandale and Crestview neighborhoods. The curved silhouette is a visual representation of an audio wave, the frequencies of the many stories told by community members kind enough to offer us their time and insight. Many of these stories conveyed a similar theme, how much their neighborhood has changed. The two halves of the sculpture, on each front-facing facade, emulate this change, that of the older and newer generations that call and have called these neighborhoods home. We are proposing this piece be 15 feet high by 5.7 feet wide. The sculpture would be built out of steel, adorned with glass, stone and porcelain tile.

We intend for the piece to celebrate and honor the wondrous sunset providing mutual colorful cover for all residents of Brentwood, Crestview and Allandale. Paint & Tile Combinations For the mosaic portion, we will use a combination of 1” x 1” squares of glass, porcelain and locally sourced stone. Through our four distinct color fields, we will emulate the imagery of a Central Texas sunset.

She will also be the main one installing metal components on site. Jeff Grauzer (a member of the art team) will be building the entirety of the mosaic structure- cutting all tile, placing tile with mortar, and grouting it. Michael Mares Mendoza (a member of the art team) helps run operations and due diligence for Level Up Design Works as the project manager for the Burnet Road Project. He is a community liaison and a spatial editor specializing in augzoo location-based augmented reality spatial computing technology and planned to place various community reality tributes including community picked topics; such as: the Air Conditioned Village, Dart Bowl, Highland Lanes, Domino the Pig, and other community topics as requested. As part of the original plan, Michael would oversee collaborations on additional digital community content through nearby stakeholders like Lamar Middle School working in collaboration with Susan Burneson from the Voices of the Violet Crown and the Austin History Center, which is a part of the Austin Public Library. Rev. Jan 2013 Page | 9 Describe the methods and/or processes used in fabrication, in order of their use in the artwork: Purposely designed for the majority to be built in the shop, each “wing” will be assembled in Courtney’s shop. All welds required to meet up to AWS D1.1 welder qualification will be done by a fabricator with those certifications (still TBD). Those welds will be required at the most crucial connections that bear most of the heavy weight of the sculpture. In tandem with wing structure assembly, the mosaic portion will be assembled separately at Jeff Grauzer’s studio. The mosaic will be composed of glass and porcelain tile. These pieces will be mortared to a piece of ½ inch Schluter board. Spaces will be left open on the mosaic surface to allow screws to attach the Schluter board to the metal studs which comprise the internal structure of each “wing”. Once attached with 1 ¼ inch Rock-On fasteners, the mosaic surfaces left open will be filled in. This will then have grout and sealant applied to it. . Once attached to the internal structure, the seam between the mosaic portion and the sheet metal skin will be caulked. To achieve an even surface between the metal skin and the mosaic portion, the metal skin will be placed on top of two ½ inch pieces of Schluter board, whereas the mosaic portion will consist of one piece of Schluter board. This will provide an even surface of 1 inch off the internal structure of each “wing”. When all the mosaic components are installed, we will move on to forming the “skin”, welding it in place, and building the “globe” that will be installed on top of the sculpture on a round stainless steel plate. The “globe” on top will contain somewhere around 10 strips of 18g stainless sheet metal formed into a circular shape, on top of a metal skeleton. One of the strips will contain a hinge for easy access to the purple bulb inside. Once the “globe” is fabricated, it will be welded to the metal plate. After that, we will take our 3”x3” stainless steel round tubing bent into a circular shape (outsourced to a more industrial shop with proper equipment for bending thick material) and weld it to our steel plate. The purple bulb fixture comes with a mounting plate which will be welded to the congregated metal strips. This bulb will be powered by 4 solar panels which will be fastened to the top side of each “wing” with ½” Tek screws. Once all welds are completed and all metal is sanded to our preferred finish, we will proceed with applying our automotive primer, paint, and clear coat. All of this will take place in Courtney’s shop, and done with an air-compressed spray gun. Once all is applied and clear coat is set and dried, we are ready to transport to site. .

All immersive content will be supported and hosted through augzoo, a leader in spatial computing experiences and provider of immersive experiences funded through City of Austin Cultural Arts since 2016. Michael Mares Mendozas is actively collecting digital content from the community which will be featured through various immersive digital installations that will be experienced on site at the Burnet Road placemaker site. The production of the content may feature audio interviews recorded and edited by Michael Mares Mendoza in the style of NPR’s StoryCorps as requested by the community during various community engagement sessions. Mendoza plans on incorporating 2D historical images in 3D space using augzoo’s spatial computing technology to enhance the site through multiple immersive Burnet Road community-centric installations with all digital components available through the Austin History Center for access to the general public. Describe the installation site and method: Prior to transport (when the concrete pad was poured, embed plates were set in concrete) we will be welding our center column to the center embed plate, and that will be our point of attachment to assemble all the wings. A heavy hauler will be used to transport the constituent parts of the artwork to the site. A crane company will be used to lift and place the pieces into place, welding them to the center column via tabs, bolting down with base plates, and then welding the top globe portion. A cherry picker lift will be used to make final touches throughout the artwork. The solar panels will be connected and the light within the orb tested on site For the metal portion there will be little maintenance needed. A simple spray and wipe down once a year would keep it from acquiring a lot of build-up from the elements. If there is graffiti, a basic commercial-grade graffiti removing solvent should work just fine. For the mosaic portion, a yearly spray and wipe down will suffice to keep a nice gleaming surface. Augmented reality component: (Removed due to cost overruns caused by extensions.) Michael Mares Mendoza will create a dedicated augmented reality channel for “The Crowned Violet” featuring multiple digital installations featuring community related topics previously listed. All content will be shared with the Austin History Center for general community access to the digital content. Describe any required maintenance procedures: The top portion will have an access point to change the light when necessary. Level Up Design Works planned to contract with augzoo LLC to host all related digital content associated for the spatial computing of the multiple immersive experiences that will comprise “The Crowned Violet” for a total of 5 years. All associated digital content that constitutes the immersive experiences will be shared with the Austin History Center for unlimited general access into the future.
