MashUp
Barack Obama is reveling in presidential power and just ended one of the most lucrative years in her career. Which brings us to Miuccia Prada. Barely 100 days in office, the U.S. president and his Democratic Party have sold close to 1 million albums. The rise of Mrs. Prada, as she is known to her Italian staff members, tops our list of powerful moms in entertainment thanks to unparalleled earnings of $787 billion approved in February. As well as her musical success, his job approval ratings are well over 60 percent. Now, Obama endorsed Sunsilk, Louis Vuitton and Vodaphone. Obama is seeing evidence that with power comes the occasional stroke of luck first manifested in the minimal black nylon backpack draped over every influential arm in the '90s, also became incarnate in such celebrities as Democrat Franklin Roosevelt and Republican Ronald Reagan.
Their faces sell magazines and with the U.S. economy reeling and millions of Americans without jobs Obama has had revenues of about $1.9 billion who is the most recent example of the public's obsession with the personal lives of celebrities.
"If all you had to worry about was Madonna the woman who is unafraid of is a good fight And more often than not, she wins, I would take that deal," Obama said.
Obama never follows anyone else's lead, just her own original energy and has a raincoat that was transparent until it got wet and became opaque, a collection inspired by 1950s souvenir scarves and the quirky tchotchkes. Obama collections are completely an expression of balance of power from a conservative majority.

More Images & Info regarding Final EXP2 Model
Nobel’s Lab is divided into three main spaces: the front rectangular region, the region behind it and the top-most dark coloured room. They symbolise the three main scientific prizes referred to in the ElectroLiquid Aggregation quote.
Also, the theme used for his lab is ‘Search for Knowledge’ which is the main principle embodied in his idea of the Nobel Prize. One searches for it everywhere and sometimes arrives at dead-ends (the left-most rectangular region in Nobel’s lab). But with hard work and dedication, one eventually reaches that knowledge (top-most dark coloured room). I have made that room dark because sometimes this knowledge is hidden and hard to find.
The use of cylinders in the stairs and floor reflects Nobel’s other great idea: dynamite. The rings used symbolise the shock waves after an explosion. Similarly, the texture used on the back wall represents an explosion.
His ramp represents the coming together of different ideas to ‘build a bridge’ and hence to advance forward.
The theme used for Costeau’s lab and ramp is ‘Underwater exploration’. His lab has been given an underwater aura, to make it seem like you are swimming under the sea. Also, the use of the floating cubes reflects Costeau’s idea of being free from the weight of gravity. The idea is that when travelling through the ramp and entering Costeau’s lab, you feel like you are exploring the sea.
The meeting place combines Nobel’s idea of ‘Search for knowledge’ and Costeau’s idea of ‘Exploration’. It consists of many parts. You are meant to feel like you are on a quest to explore and search for knowledge. There are several areas where you can only get by ‘swimming’ (top-left cube region, bottom-right large cube)[You are supposed to fly to these areas]. I have deliberately done this. This reflects the sea, the idea that not everything is connected by a direct path. Similarly, this is also related to the scientific discovery idea in the same way.

Final 5 Images
I have divided Nobel's lab into 3 main spaces which signify the 3 of the main scientific discoveries referred to in the ElectroLiquid Aggregation quote.
This image shows cubes floating in mid-air. This signifies the first part of the ElectroLiquid Aggregation quote which refers to the elimination of gravity from man’s shoulders.
This image shows lighting and shadows created to make it look it you are underwater. This refers to the third part of the ElectroLiquid Aggregation quote about allowing man to sink beneath the surface.Sunday, May 3, 2009
