Michael, on your Matrix, you are showing lobby and administration to have a strong connection. Administration is a private function. It does not have to be so close to the main lobby. It might even have it's own entrance.
Firstly thank you for allowing a stranger to review your work.
In your matrix you have "maybe" which suggests you are not sure what relationship some rooms/areas should have to others. Perhaps "essential", "desirable" and "not essential" would read better and show a clearer understanding. I think bubble diagrams are useful but should be expanded. Presumably you have a brief with areas for each room. Perhaps scale these areas and examine adjacencies. It is unclear from the diagram what is public and private (performance areas). Examining this may help with adjacencies and a clearer understanding of function.
The building typology you have chosen is really interesting and I think that you should shape a more rigorous argument of why you chose it and relate it to your site and the city.
What is your programmatic manifesto? The program you have set so far seems complete but follows the path of any conventional building of this kind. Be rigorous about your program. Think what difference will your building offer in New York city. What is unique about your proposal? For example, analyze the programmatic concept of Sendai Mediatheque by Toyo Ito. It is a building - manifesto not because of its form but because its structure is at the same time its program; the channel though which data circulate through the spaces. You have to push your programatic concept more.
In regards to your references I would propose that you also look at casa da musica by OMA.
Define the word art and how you envision your building as a host of this specific program. Are you envisioning a building as a container of artistic events or a building as a sponge that captures all kinds of information from the city, smells, colors, sounds, decodes them and projects them in its interior thus performing art? (look at Francoise Roche and his concepts, project Dustyrelief). Maybe both. But in what degree? In other words, in what level your building interacts with the city? Define the degree of permeability of artistic events between city and building.
Have always in mind the dipoles public-private, introvert-extrovert, open-closed performing art system.
