Mash-up

Mash-up

A lot of times, people don't know what they want. Her body trimmed of all fat, her skin tan as a carrot, her voice the voice of the tobacco industry itself even when she's trying to talk normally, yet she doesn’t see the need to put herself in the public eye. Many of China’s new entrepreneurs like her want to keep greeting guests, handing glasses to assistants, posing for pictures. Apple’s share price fluctuates by the minute despite her being almost unknown in the wider world. Wearing an imperial blue plunging V-neck top with tight satiny pants, The CEO of Apple Computer is a master of hype, hyperbole and the catchy phrase. And this is just for daytime. There she was, DONATELLA VERSACE, a 49-year-old paper recycler who has just emerged not only as the richest entrepreneur in China, but also as the wealthiest self-made woman in the world. “It's very character-building”, she was saying through that thick Calabrian accent. The heaviness of being successful has suddenly arrived at the top of the list with a net worth of $3.4bn. "It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life". We were also captivated by the self-deprecating humor of this ''Italian mama'' but Donatella is in a class of her own when it comes to elusiveness.

EXP2- Developed UT2004 Environment



Above: The Ramp on the left represents the movement from the meeting area into the internal space where Jane Goodall is exposed to an environment that allows her to explore the notion of fear. The ramp on the right, which extends out to the external space represents the notion of a crossing which allows Stephan Hawking to enter into his space and explore the notions of pre-destination and the point of change.

Below (Stephan Hawking): Challenging predestination.
Below: The point of intersection- the last place where we are given the chance to have a 'look' and explore the idea before ends 'cross'. This space represents the boundary before a change in course/understanding has arrived.
Below (Jane Goodwall): Fear can only be explored in an environment that bears no sense of comfort or orientation. Fear only exists in a place where there is no defined beginning or end.
Below: The ramp extending throughout Stephan Hawking's space is one which initially allows him to 'cross the road' and then challenge the idea of predestination by extending the ramp to a point which seems to never end, that is, the path becomes a space that is undefined and limitless.
Below: Ramp rising into Jane Goodall's space. This space looks to explore the idea that there is 'light at the end of the tunnel' and as such, fear is no boundary that should restrict human action or exploration of the unknown.
