 Yayoi Kusama: Dots Obsession, 200, Courtey Studio Tokyo\\
+Dots Obsession is physically and visually crowding out human visitors.\\
+"Kusama's interest in pattern began with hallucinations she experienced as a young girl--visions of nets, dots, and flowers that covered everything she saw. Gripped by the idea of 'obliterating the world,' she began covering surfaces with polka dots.
+The vast fields of polka dots, or "infinity nets," as she called them, were taken directly from her hallucinations.
+Yayoi Kusama said about her 1954 painting titled Flower (D.S.P.S),
+"One day I was looking at the red flower patterns of the tablecloth on a table, and when I looked up I saw the same pattern covering the ceiling, the windows and the walls, and finally all over the room, my body and the universe. I felt as if I had begun to self-obliterate, to revolve in the infinity of endless time and the absoluteness of space, and be reduced to nothingness. As I realized it was actually happening and not just in my imagination, I was frightened. I knew I had to run away lest I should be deprived of my life by the spell of the red flowers. I ran desperately up the stairs. The steps below me began to fall apart and I fell down the stairs straining my ankle."
+Today she lives, by choice, in a mental hospital in Tokyo, where she has continued to produce work since the mid-1970s.\\

 Magna Science Adventure Centre, Copyright © 2001-2005 ITEK-USA, Inc.  itek-usa.com/projects/\\
 The Education Centre/Packed Lunch Area is intended to accommodate large groups of school children who would be encouraged to learn about topics related to the themes of the Science Centre. It also serves an as area where they can eat and drink.The structures built for Magna are twin-walled, that is, the walls are made up of two layers of fabric with an air gap in between. It is the air between the two layers that is pressurised to provide rigidity for the structure. This means that conventional doors can be used to enter and exit the buildings as the air inside the building no longer requires pressurisation. In addition, the volume of air inside the walls is very small compared with the size of the building and so very little power is required to keep that air pressurised.\\
