Electroliquid Aggregation

We must however, acknowledge, the only boundary condition within the universe as it seems to me is that man with all his noble qualities...still bares in his bodily frame the indelible stamp of his origins, and it has no boundary.

"We must however, acknowledge that within the universe, as it seems to me that man with all his noble qualities...still bares in his bodily frame the indelible stamp of his origin."
Charles Darwin

'Black Box'


This image stood out to me at last weeks lecture. The intense detail denotes the thought processes that must have occured during the development process and in a sense it is the mind of the artist on canvas. The work seems to travel is a circular motion. This particular process is one which as first year students we are beginning to learn and carry out within each new experiment we undertake. A collection of abstract structures are present in the image. Objects sitting on top of each and interwoven. My particular design for Hawking and Darwin is a similar however far more simplified version. Rectangular prisms sit within and overlap each other to create a seemingly disorganised and unstable structure. The image is made up of many simple three-dimensional shapes being brought together to create this very complex idea. This idea is the basis for our very own design which we have produced to crawl over a custom environment, just as this piece seems to do.

Model and Environment



This is the environment I have created within Sandbox for the model to sit on.


This is the sketchup model that will be placed in the sandbox and later Crysis Wars environment. I however had trouble placing the model into the environment so temporarily is displayed apart.

Axonometric to Model


This is the axonometric which the design for experiment 2 will be based off.

Experiment 2

Stephen Hawking

"The boundary condition of the universe is that it has no boundary"

A breif history of time: From the big bang to blackholes, 1988.

Charles Darwin

"We must however, acknowledge, as it seems to me that man with all his noble qualities...still bares in his bodily frame the indelible stamp of his lowly origin"

The Decent of Man, 1871.

Nicole Kuepper

" There is a clear link between access to electricity and standard of living. There is therefore an urgent need to address this inequality throughout the world, and photovoltaic technology is well positioned to be the part of the solution"

Final 3D Warehouse Link

Final Design


These are the stairs used in the final design of the below ground studio (Piccinini). They are of custom metal riser and going contruction held in place by a two purpose hanging system also acting as a handrail.

The image shows the southern facade and from within the modified balcony no longer being open but rather enclosed by glazed panels. It also shows the timber bars that are used to section off the stairs and act as a balustrade. The use of my own custom materials are also shown in this image on the shelving on the above studio. The material "Natural" is used.


An overall of the design showing the above ground, the datum and the below ground. The step downs in the roof of the below ground can be seen and was done to emphasis the heirachy of the family structure and on track witht the initial design continues with the "up and down" motion of the roof to represent the ups and down of family life. The image also show 2 more custom textures being used. The texture "Dense" is used on the support columns and balustrade in the gallery space. The texture "Electric" is used in the feature wall on the northern wall. This texture was used in conjunction with the design theme of human organ system. Electric pulses streaming throughout the body.


An interior image of the Below ground roof with the vision/light panels. As central stairs that link all the rooms within the studio. Again with relevance to the family structure.
