EXP3 Final Environment

EXP3 Dining table and Elevator






The dining table is shaped that way to represent the power of two great women which meet in the middle. Where the wavy shape represents Keller's unstoppable willingness to succeed to be like Kerr, and also to connect it to Kerr's lady-like behaviour, a power that can attract men in which in my imagination it has something to do with waves to represent 'lady-like'. The two power meet in the middle and cause a shape to be made. Keller could sit at the larger side of the table, while Kerr could be anywhere in that table.

The elevator on Kerr's is being put like that with a bit spike on top is to represent the power that a lady in order to attract someone like what Keller was doing about is that she should be fierce sometimes.

The elevator on Keller's side is being shaped to be really curvy, to represent her resistless will, her unstoppable behaviour to achieve a goal, which can bring her to the dining table.

EXP3 Overall Draft and Textures Used

from Resistless for the elevators. The movement 'resistless' was chosen to represent Keller's power of a strong-willed heart as a woman to change the world by changing herself first.

from Wavy for Miranda Kerr's office to represent 'feminine' power of a lady like Kerr as model, where the power of appearance really does can be such an advantage. The wavy movement is picked to represent a woman, where a woman is usually can be imagined to be wavy and curvy.
From Resistless for Hellen Keller's office to represent how unstoppable her will is until she could get the power to change herself.





This is the main sketchup draft including all of the parts of the models

EXP3 First draft of bridge




This is the first draft of the bridge I made in order to combine Keller and Kerr's offices. The reason why I made it a bit abstract and wavy is because I want to combine Keller's power of persistence and her resistless will as a woman to succeed as I mentioned in my MashUp in order to be like Kerr.

The Power of Body+Appearance

Helen Keller was less than two years old when she came down with a fever. It struck dramatically and left her unconscious. The fever went just as suddenly. But she was blinded and, very soon after, deaf. She struggled to master language but later she could finally grasp Braille, and proved she could communicate in the world of sight and sound. But her dream was big, she wanted to be a German Chancellor. She said, "We have the freedom to be as extraordinary as the sighted."

Being rejected by the audience/citizens of Germany because of she was handicapped, she said, "My sympathies are with all who struggle for justice." Thus she tried some ways to impress the audience. Keller loved the audience and wrote that she adored "the warm tide of human life pulsing round and round me." That's why the stage appealed to her, why she learned to speak and to deliver speeches.

She created another tactic to impress the citizens. She created daily menus, and these are her daily meals. For her breakfast every morning, she drinks water with lemon and vinegar to detox her system. For breakfast, she'll have green tea, fresh fruit salad with yoghurt and muesli or two pieces of rye toast with avocado and boiled eggs. For lunch, she stocks up on protein at lunchtime. Fresh tuna salad with spelt crispbread, plus more water and dandelion tea keep her going even on long shoots. For dinner, she steers clear of potatoes, but says that she indulges in roasted vegetables like sweet potato, pumpkin and greens with her dinner. She also runs, boxes and does strength training with a personal trainer. She also practises yoga daily.

A few months later, came up Posters showing the ample decolletage of German chancellor that have been distributed ahead of the country's general election next month. She appears in a lowcut dress alongside Vera Lengsfeld, a parliamentary candidate and member of the chancellor's Christian Democratic Union party, whose CLEAVAGE is also on display. Below the poster is the slogan: 'We have more to offer.' The 57-year-old candidate has hung 750 posters in her district and local media have reported a few stolen as souvenirs. Her look on the poster makes men go weak at the knees. It has been claimed to be very effective to attract the citizens, as it is also said over 17,000 people had visited her election blog since she shot into the public eye.
Thus the power of appearance actually exists! :)

5 Images from Crysis

The area with the highest level and darkest texture is Stephen Hawking's lab. The high location of his lab at the end of the cliff enables him to look at the sky, stars, and the universe, thus he could get an inspiration for his quote "We are just an advanced breed of monkeys on a minor planet of a very average star, but we can understand the Universe."


A block with 3 equal columns at the end of a path which divides two equal sizes of body of water which animals are in it(I put sharks inside the water but it's unclear here) is Charles Darwin's lab where he got an inspiration for his quote is 'Animals, whom we have made our slaves, we do not consider ourselves equal.' 

The area with red holes in the middle of the land is the meeting place for Hawking and Darwin. Hawking has to go either from the left/right side of his lab, down to the ramp and to the red area in order to meet Darwin, and Darwin has to walk and pass through the path/bridge in the middle of the water with sharks to the meeting place.

Electroliquid Aggregration: "Although we, humans, are originated from monkeys, but we're not equal to them because we outsmart them in a case of understanding the universe."








We shouldn't forget the land/place of origin where we come from. The landform is shaped like monkey's face to portray Hawking's quote that we are originated from monkeys, thus to the idea of we are a breed of monkey would always be remembered in that island.

Electroliquid Aggregation

Stephen Hawking

We are just an advanced breed of monkeys on a minor planet of a very average star. But we can understand the Universe. That makes us something very special.


Charles Darwin
Animals, whom we have made our slaves, we do not like to consider our equal.

"Although we, humans, are originated from monkeys, but we're not equal to them because we outsmart them in a case of understanding the universe."
