Mash Up

"The word power is ambiguous and mystifying Power is interrelated and measurable The word power is vague and ambivalent Everybody is believed to have some form of power" - JULIUS BABARINSA Angela Merkel, Miranda Kerr, Helen Kellar are woman of power. But what power? Being in the league of the most beautiful women in the world, Miranda has indirectly been blessed with power not many people ever experience in their life. To accompany her exterior beauty her strong character is her "backbone to success". Her co-workers describe her as full of "determination, commitment and ambition." These are all powerful words which are an unyielding influence on the younger generation especially young women. Angela has a responsibility to her country, she is a head figure who "has steered Germany through difficult times". Her "dowdy image" is the not the cause for her popularity and power instead it is her words, and "actions that are life-changing to many people" and therefore her purpose as German Chancellor comes with a lot of power attached. Its hard to imagine someone like Helen Kellar could be bestowed with such influence and power. Being unfortunately blind since her birth Kellar would be in no position to be the Angela Merkel or Miranda Kerr of the world. Howeve she has found her form of power through intelligence and knowledge. Her power is shone through in achievements, mainly being able to "speak the language of the sighted" as well as later being the first deaf/blind person to gain a degree in university. All three women have defined power in distinctive ways. They have used there abilities to conquer extraordinary things which have rewarded them with power to influence and change.

In the original photo of the valley, the waterfall is a very small single drop. I have enlarged the waterfall to become a larger feature of the valley.

Valley - Hamburg, Germany

This is an image of a valley in Hmaburg, Germany. I chose this scene because if its dramatic steep cliffs. It really gives a feel of true nature and what a valley should be life.

Showing the light in Charles Darwin's laboratory. It is intended reflects his idea of "varying conditions of life" and "new and modified forms". This section is separate from the other ocmponents of the object only joined by the long rectangular shaft which is based on Darwin's talk of "individuality". This shaft can act as an elevator of stair space for Darwin to reach the middle level which is the meeting area.

A view from the pond up. Notice the subtle reflection of the light bulb off the ceiling surface. The other spaces are less needing of artificial light as there is so much open space in this structure.

The avatar shows the life size of Darwin's laboratory. The little nook which the avatar is facing is his actual work space and the area he is standing on is acting as a verandah where he is able to walk around to think while taking in the tranquil view.
Morning serene shot showing the whole building from the back. To the right you able to see a earth path connecting the scientists' work building to another piece of land.The very top platform of the object is Nicole Kuepper's laboratory. This work area has very minimal cover to alloq Kuepper much spaceshe experiments with "solar cells" which requires alot of sunlight. To take cover from the sun she is able to go inside the middle shaft which also connects her to the meeting space. The meeting space is just a flat wide platform which allows the two scientists to bring large objects into the space.
