Designed by Thomas Jefferson to represent the “authority of nature and the power of reason,” the Rotunda is the architectural and symbolic center of the University of Virginia, founded by Jefferson in 1824 as the first secular Liberal Arts university in America. Inspired by these now threatened ideals, composer Judith Shatin and filmmaker Robert Arnold have created a sound and video portrait of the Rotunda that juxtaposes its timeless majesty with the every-changing hum of daily life.
