Landscape

The landscape that I have chosen to inspire my environment for this experiment is from Germany. Though both images are of different places, they're still German landscapes.

MashUp

Agressively flexing it's muscles can be a way to show courage and strength int he most unlikely of places. People should be respected for what they can do rather than judged by what they cannot as it then propells popularity even further into the stratosphere. Being approachable and friendly may allow one to be rated as the world's most powerful. A person's influence can become a symbol of hope and determination thoughout the world and can shape events ultimately to suit ones own political ends. Ambition gives us power as we work our way up, with the power achieved, if you could make someone happy, use it, why not? By breaking past our weaknesses, it uplifts us, though it does not need to be shown off in public. Nobody should be underestimated as anyone could become an inspiration for millions over the years as believing in something fires the desire to hang on to power.

Charles Darwin/Stephen Hawking

In the universe exist many different races of men yet what could be more special than that there is no boundary, that it is extremely improbable that they should have been independently acquired by aboriginally distinct species or races but there is no boundary to that.

Three Quotes

Nicole Kuepper
“Working on a renewable energy technology that could simultaneously address climate change and poverty for some of the 2 billion people worldwide who currently lack access to a reliable source of electricity.”

Charles Darwin
"Although the existing races of man differ in many respects, as in colour, hair, shape of skull, proportions of the body, &c., yet if their whole organisation be taken into consideration they are found to resemble each other closely in a multitude of points. . . . it is extremely improbable that they should have been independently acquired by aboriginally distinct species or races."

PICTURES

A.

A random piece of image I created for a multimedia project a couple years ago. There's a couple more of them which I have added into that project as well.


B.

http://creativeclass.typepad.com/.shared/image.html?/photos/uncategorized/2007/09/23/bilboa.jpg


A somewhat interesting building including a small moat? The roof looks like a tin that has been cut and bent to the shape it is.




C.


The temple has been constructed in a way so that it's visitors may admire the view from where the temple is. It is visited quite often and schools hold trips for students to visit to pray and to admire the temple for it's view.
