EXP 2 - 5 REAL TIME IMAGE CAPTURES












Overview of the whole structure












View from the top of waterfall












View from meeting place












View of Isaac Newton's workspace












View from Sigmund Freud's workspace

______________________________________________

Relation to electroliquid aggregation:

"The connection and fluidity of the natural and the built environment can enlighten humans to make ideas possible"

My structure relates to the electroliquid aggregation quote in some way. It is about the blending of the architecture into the environment. Although organic forms cannot be found in my structure which is built up with geometrical forms of different height and textures, but have the structure thoughtfully placed in the landscape allowing the built environment and the natural environment harmoniously related.

EXP 2 - 6 MORE AXOMETRICS

















The higher the altitude, the lower the effects of gravity; Look deeper into the human mind and test the unconsciousness and mechanism of repression based on a thousand experiments

















Special forms will drastically influence the psychology of both extrovert and introvert; Even the most complicated geometrical shapes and architecture starts with the simplest mathematical formulas





















Humans are full of ideas, all we need is enlightenment to make them possible; The connection and fluidity of the natural and the built environment effect the human condition

EXP 2 - ELECTROLIQUID AGGREGATION & 3 EXPERIMENTS

Electroliquid Aggregation:

The connection and fluidity of the natural and the built environment can enlighten humans to make ideas possible

( [Sigmund Freud] the connection and fluidity of the natural and the built environment effect the human condition + [Isaac Newton] humans are full of ideas, all we need is enlightenment to make them possible )

____________________________________

3 Experiments

Isaac Newton
Hypothesis:
Humans are full of ideas, all we need is enlightenment to make them possible
Experiment: Provide humans with all sorts of stimulus and put them into different environment to see which combination makes them most productive

Sigmund Freud
Hypothesis:
The connection and fluidity of the natural and the built environment effect the human condition
Experiment: Place a human on to settings with different connection and fluidity of natural and built environment, then observe the conditions of the human

Maria Agnesi
Hypothesis: Even the most complicated geometrical shapes and architecture starts with the simplest mathematical formulas
Experiment: Using mathematical formulaes, derive different geometrical shapes to test if they become complicated
