Inspiration From Concerts

Ayumi Hamasaki,
Maybe not the best "SINGER" in the world but she really is one of the people who knows how to put on a brilliant concert.

I want to have a performance space for Madonna in her 'office' since she said she know how to put a good concert as well. (I have checked some of her concert but I prefer Ayumi's stages as the end...)

I like the ways she enters into each of her concert


(BTW ...good song)

The glass light ball which opens up when the concert starts...maybe improve if it raise from the ground to the stage ...since the light in UT can not be dynamic



Floating the air and descend to the stage


Move around when it is floating to interact with audiences.
Also the integration of monitor within the performance is also good.

Meeting Desk & One of the Elevators

The table in the meeting place...

The bottom of the table... I tried to make the elements which support the whole table interesting...
Prada's side ...
I made drawers for Prada in the table. It may not be necessary since most designers just spread everything they have on the table to show their clients.
The chair for Prada would be separate from the table instead of connected because most designer walk around the table when they are discussing their design to their clients.

Madonna's side...
I connect Madonna's chair to the table because I do not think Madonna is a person who would sit long when she is producing music. the actual function of the chair in this table is actually acting like a stair to let Madonna walk on to the table, which I want it also be the a small stage for her.
When she wants to show Prada how she will look like on the stage or when Prada finishes a outfit and want to have a view of how it will look like from the audiences level.



The Elevator for Prada to go to the meeting place from her office, since she wants to relax for lunch, I tried to make the components to be as COSY as possible with blobs...I put a sofa for her to relax on the way to see Madonna(my other client)...
To further develop it, I might put a plasma TV and great sound system within the elevator so she can listen/watch Madonna's live concert record when she is on her way to meet the star.

Elevator from a blob...

Followed Jeremy's tutorial so make a blob and turned the result into a elevator1

Since its shape looks like a rock so I put a texture of stones ...to create a ROCK!

Mashup

It seems indisputable that more people know at least something about people with power than anyone alive, at this point—or any—in the planet’s existence.

These individuals have stamped their names on an era by alleviating the isolation of powerful people. For such sensitive types, the ultimate luxury is to feel that they are part of a community. This is the service people with power provide. They have made the world safe for people with overdeveloped inner lives.

Because If you’re a person with power. People pay attention to what you say and do.

There’s no denying that the world has been utterly captivated by these powerful individuals . With their unrivaled power and prestige, they have changed the world’s faith to people who have more power and responsibility. They have made the world cool again—and more than that, they have made their own brand arguably the most powerful the world has ever known.

They didn’t fit into the popular group.
They didn’t fit the ideal of what a conventionally people would expect. So it was possible for them to get tortured which further validated their superiority, and helped them to survive
and improve their strength.

Black Box :Slide 54

The top view of this project is similar to my meeting place's top view.

The familiarity between the two attracts me to have further observation of this drawing.

The shadow area of this drawing extends the visual space within this building and I think this is quiet smart to create a big 'space' with a small area.[Although I do not really know how big this project is].
