I'm too tired to explain all this, but suffice to say this semester we were to design a geometrically abstract landscape and a surrealist building to go on it. I present on Monday and I still have all the 2D sections/plans/elevations/details to do tomorrow. Maybe I'll post them too on Monday, to clarify things a bit, and do some explaining. For now I'll just let you be freaked out.


Landform and building overview with EKG equipment. Yes, it's a building.


Part I, the Rorschach Rendezvous.


Part II, the Observer Empathy Enforcer.


Cutaway of the back of the Torso Tower showing interior space. That reminds me, I need to extend the spine up to the neck...

Quicktime VR perspectives:
Exterior 1 from the far end of the landform.
Exterior 2 from the POV of the guy standing next to the hand.
Interior 1 from inside the transparent-roofed inkblot.
Interior 2 from the POV of the guy inside the torso.

do not torment the sleep deprived artist, he may be vicious when cornered,
in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,
and less likely to stab you in the eye with a mechanical pencil

You have an odd, odd mind.......
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

Reminds me, oddly enough, of works by the original Aken Bosch.
