seems like he broke up the flat stones, and re-path (sp) the ground so its smooth to paint on, and drew matching broken flat stones to match the real ones on the out side, this guy is great...i would love something like that in my back yard

the spinner

 

"In spite of the terriffic pre-production drawings, when the spinner was initially built and photographed, it looked like a flying brick. It took an enormous amount of energy to make it appear aerodynamic and interesting--continually adding flashing lights and other effects."

 

-Doug Trumbull(special effects supervisor for bladerunner)

"A vehicle that is self-contained and that looks essentially the same whether it flies or is on the ground is a real flying car to me. It uses an aerodyne. You can have turbines inside the car, the bottom of the car might have to have big vents or something. Essentially you generate all the power inside it so you don't have to have extendable wings and all this mechanical nonsense to contend with. It's the same car, but flies. That makes it even better, because when it's flying it looks basically like it does rolling along the ground. But you make the transfer without the vehicle's changing shape. That makes it more magical."

The Voight-Kampff Machine

http://www.devo.com/bladerunner/sector/2/pics/tyrell_co_1.jpeg'>

 

a popular theme in Phillip K Dick's work.. was how humans analyze themselves through series of pyschological tests and exams..

 

in almost every book of his he'll go on a 3 page tangent about specific tests.. their histories and so forth..

in "We Can Build You" over a third of the population in america is hospitalized or locked in mental wards/clinics.. and your sanity or ability to function normaly is subject to various pyschological screenings such as.. voight-kampff

 

"Ridley drew a sketch of this machine, which he said was an exotic kind of lie detector, and it reads the iris's contractions. When you lie, or are under stress, your iris tends to contract or expand. The Voight-Kampff machine would center on the pupil and the operator would have a full-screen enlarged picture of the iris. The machine would measure the contractions of the iris and put it on a graph or something.

 

"Ridley wanted this machine to be fairly delicate, briefcase size, easily portable, but it also had to look very dangerous sitting on a desk, very threatening, and sort of like a giant tarantula. Since it isn't dangerous because it's large, it had to be dangerous because it's threatening. So we decided it should breathe. My rationale for this was that the machine would draw in air samples in the immediate area. When you are scared or apprehensive, our body gives off an odor. And I think it's minute molecular detachments of protein or something that your sweat glands give out. So your chemistry changes when you're tense. You unfold the machine and it starts itself as soon as the subject walks in the room; its arm moves around and focuses at the subject's eye. It's sort of alive in a way all by itself, and its very, very threatening."
