“旧市场广场舞台”(又称“魔方”)是位于老市场广场的露天表演场地，是温尼伯历史悠久的交汇区的标志性绿地和夏季节日中心。2009年，5468796建筑以一种多功能设计赢得了一项邀请竞赛，该设计抛弃了旧的乐队概念，理由是当传统舞台不再使用时，它看起来会很凄凉-尤其是在城市漫长的冬天。

"The Old Market Square Stage", (otherwise known as “The Cube”) is an open-air performance venue situated in Old Market Square, an iconic green space and summer festival hub in Winnipeg’s historic Exchange District. In 2009, 5468796 Architecture won an invited competition with a multi-functional design that throws out the old bandshell concept on the grounds that when a conventional stage is not in use it would look forlorn - especially through the city's long winters.

立方体是一种由柔性金属膜包裹的混凝土立方体，具有多用途环境的功能。该薄膜由20，000个相同的空心铝片组成，这些空心铝片被绑在飞机电缆上。这些作品的方向是交替的，形成了一个柔韧而闪闪发光的幕布-这是中世纪链式钉的当代风格，它可以像一面墙一样被拉进去，展示表演空间，或者作为一个光线折射的表面-让它变成投影屏幕、表演场地、遮蔽物或雕塑物体。窗帘的灵活性也允许声学微调。

A concrete cube enclosed by a flexible metal membrane, The Cube functions as a multipurpose environment. The membrane is composed of 20,000 identical hollow aluminum pieces strung together on aircraft cables. The orientation of the pieces alternates, forming a flexible and shimmering curtain - a contemporary take on medieval chain mail, that can stand like a wall, be pulled in to reveal the performance space, or function as a light-refracting surface - allowing it to morph into a projection screen, performance venue, shelter or sculptural object. The curtain's flexibility also allows for acoustical fine tuning.

内部照明折射通过网格，使立方体柔和地发光在外面。内部投影仪也可以使图像投射在前面的窗帘上。薄膜的金刚石挤压捕捉和折射光和图像到他们的外部表面，创造了一个独特的像素矩阵，艺术家可以随意。

Internal lighting refracts through the mesh so that the The Cube softly glows on the outside. An internal projector also enables images to be projected on the front curtain. The membrane's diamond extrusions capture and refract light and images to their outer surface, creating a unique pixel matrix for artists to appropriate at will.
