In their own little ways, the three clients Obama, Prada and Madonna each have their own type of power. Obama has political stance, Prada is a dominant figure in the world of fashion and Madonna has been a fashion/music icon since the eighties. Mostly, the figures are found in newspaper articles for those seperate reasons, as they belong to different worlds of power, but still influence ours.
First draft Unreal model.

Black Box
The image is on slide number 82, from the Black Box Between Drawing, Modelling and Representation. I found that this particular image was relatable to a component of my design, as the shape of the building is similar to that I draw. Most of my designs are seem to originate from a cube-like structure before having a number of its features altered to create new living spaces. It would also appear that the scale of the structure is larger than the average, another similarity between Kruger's (the author of the thesis) and my design preferences. By looking at the interior of the space, it is rather minimal and smoothly edged. And even though there are few components composing the space, light and shadow is well contrasted here.

Experiment Two
Alfred Nobel
"If I have a thousand ideas and only one turns out to be good, I am satisfied."
Jacques Yves Cousteau
"If we were logical, the future would be bleak, indeed. But we are more than logical. We are human beings, and we have faith, and we have hope, and we can work."
Keith Campbell
"In 1996, Dolly was the first animal to be produced using the genetic material from an adult-derived somatic cell. The techniques used in the production of these animals have now been reproduced in both sheep and cattle, and as predicted, successful development has been obtained using donor cells taken directly ex vivo."

I found this video particularly interesting as it shows how people can use sketchup to design things digitally before a single piece of timber is cut.

Homework
Fiona Hall's Paradisus Terestris is made from aluminum and steel. It depicts the intersection of plant and human culture. Within each half-opened can sits a naked human body part, while plant life sprouts above. Beneath these top two layers, Hall adds language. The three systems make us consider what we share with plants. In 1989, she developed the series using photographic resources at the Australia Council's studio in New York's SoHo district.
TraceyMoffat creates a photographic narrative which use theatrical props in a comic (and sometimes grotesque) vein, yielding evocative dramas in the desert, the suburbs and historical fantasy. In the case of Moffat's Something More, it seeks to depart from an outback shack inhabited by rough types, only to enter into a sadistic lesbian relationship, ending in death. This was made from Cibachrome, extedning 98 × 127cm.
Rosalie Gascoigne's Printed Circuit is made from retro reflective roadsign on wood, meauring at 96 × 95cm. Her work has an ability to draw creative inspiration from the discarded; her intrinsic response to her chosen materials, and her unique ability to evocatively convey the essence of nature and the transitory and captivating effects of light, air and space.
