Golden Village Multiplex Yishun 10 - Singapore (1992)

Designed by Geoff Malone International (GMI)

"The detailing of the external cladding is reminiscent of the Kirin Building in Osaka by Shin Takamatsu, with meticulously constructed junctions of stainless steel and profiled cladding juxtaposed with lighting tubes. Unlike Takamatsu's monochromatic facade, however, the colours used in Yishun 10 are predominantly red, white and silver, with "splashes" of other primary colours—all evoke the excitement and magic of "a night at the movies". Interestingly, the Kirin Building houses a film institute and cinema buffs will recall it being used for location filming of the movie Black Rain.

A central two-storey atrium has numerous restaurants arranged around its perimeter at first-storey. The automated ticket office is located in this central space. An escalator and stair-cases give access to the spacious second-storey foyer and thence to the ten individual cinemas on the third storey. A stair-lift permits access to the disabled.

In the main foyer, aside from the functional planning, the architect obviously derived much pleasure from the task of designing the sculptural sci-fi light fittings and multi-coloured fluorescent tube lighting in an otherwise slightly dimmed interior. Floor lighting beneath laminated glass blocks and multiple television monitor screens, with constantly changing images, all contribute to the "escapism" that is an integral part of a visit to the cinema.

For a brief interlude, the cinema-goer is transported out of the HDB township and the frantic rush of economic activity into a world of fantasy, glamour and enchantment. The Multiplex is "both a centripetal and a centrifugal force" in the urban landscape; it attracts patrons from a wide catchment area and projects an image of a vigorous and enterprising new town. It is ironic that, until the early 1990s, cinemas in Singapore were closing down for lack of patronage and some were being converted to churches. Now we see not only a revival of the genre, but as exemplified in the Golden Village Multiplex Yishun 10, it can create a special urban focus."

Spoilers for Absolute Power: Task Force VII #4!

It's a blink-and-you'll miss it cameo, but I was definitely surprised to see Roscoe and Len forced into building some device for Amanda Waller's regime. (Not sure if the woman working with Doctor Psycho is a miscoloured Lisa or somebody else, and the guy in the top hat could be the Shade or maybe the Wizard. And poor Houngan's been whitewashed.) Obviously we're being teased with what the villains are constructing, but there's no indication of what it is aside from looking like some kind of portal. Waller's probably got designs on other multiversal Earths or other planets.

Not shown because I cropped the page: Ralph Dibny beaten half to death by a guard with a bloody baton. Which is horrible, but it's also kind of weird that he has elongated and twisted limbs when he's supposed to be depowered. I hope the guard didn't do that to him :\

3. Who is your first known alter(s)? 9. Who's your most mischievous headmate? (/silly) 10. What's your headspace like? 12. Random quote from a headmate, go! 14. What gives you euphoria about being plural? 15. What give you dysphoria about being plural?

3.) The first known alters are the 6 "pups". Branch, Thorn, Moss, Root, Twig, and Leaf. They're Lupine Eldertrees and were planted here to take the place of the child that would have been stillborn were it not for the intervention of the Fae Prince.

9.) Pietro Maximoff is up there for mischief causers for sure. Though Foxy Coltrane, who woke up recently, is giving him a run for his money.

10.) We have a super long post in our drafts about headspace, but in short: Our inner world is a seemingly infinite, multilayered dimension where you can change things at will. However the natural construction consists largely of massive floating continents and islands, each with different strange biomes. They're accompanied by large pieces of architecture the float around in the vast expanse, typically being non-euclidian. Doors and gateways litter the headspace, many of which lead to other realms and realities. The entire space is constantly shifting, controlled by what we call "The Clockwork Galaxy", a complex series of interlocking metaphysical gears and machinery, that moves everything around at periodic intervals. Everything is colorful and surreal, and much if it would be physically impossible in the outer world.

12.) "They gave me slop, and I loved it!" - Steve Trevor

14.) We feel euphoric about being able to make sense of all our bizarre life experiences and perspectives, by getting to know our system and understanding it more and more everyday.

15.) We sometimes feel dysphoric about not always being able to do or understand the same things we did in our own lives / bodies, and adjusting to the limitations of this life, body, and world.

Multiplex

[PT: Multiplex]

Multiplex, a plurplex term that means that a Multi* identity/being Multi* effects the entire system (or subsystem, layer, etc). It doesn’t have to be in the same way, it just has to affect everyone.

So, I have a weird question.

I'm already part of a system. We introject REALLY easily and I often feel like my fictives especially are partly willogenic in nature just because I gently encourage their formation when I feel it's possible to.

We're also a massively polymultiple, likely infinite system. I worry about making sure everyone has the fronting time they desire. As host, I am often either frontstuck or simply non-aware when not fronting, but I have been told that the massive innerworld that I have helped build is where most of my headmates are happy to spend the majority of their time.

I also may have unintentionally created tulpas already (or semi-intentionally) or fully willogenic headmates because genuinely sometimes it feels like all it takes to "generate" a headmate is to basically get an idea of who they'll be and then talk to them ONCE and they immediately form.

All that background to ask, is it enough to say "I'd like to try to create a tulpa" to do so, knowing I'll treat them the same as any other headmate and very much care about their needs and desires? I'm still a little worried about system size causing issues, but so far those who want to front or be near front have done so with no issues. I guess my main issue is, I just want to make sure I can give them all the good things they deserve and am giving the proper weight and consideration to bringing a new consciousness into our world.

Also to be clear we're not at all asking you to make the decision for us, just mainly for any additional thoughts or considerations you might have, and anything we should br cautious about that we might have missed ^^

I see nothing wrong with it.

I think concerns over system size tend to be relative. For us, adding two new members a while back was incredibly stressful because it doubled our system size all at once.

If you're a system of 100, then adding a new headmate is increasing your system size by 1%. It should definitely be something you can handle.

I think as long as you're committed to caring about their needs, it shouldn't really matter how large or small your system already is. If you want a new member and can take on the responsibility, I would say 'go for it.'

AMC Studio 30 Theatre - Houston, TX (1997)

"What the design attempts to do in the 110,000 sq. ft. space is simulate a movie studio backlot and the soundstage where guests become part of the action, and the experience "rekindles the magic and memory of movie going."

Elements from sound stages and studio road cases make up the central lobby space along with a guest service desk. Images of Hollywood's glamorous stars of the past add enchantment to the balcony walls. The space is divided into three themed areas that "transport guests into fantastic worlds of Animation, Action/Adventure and Cyberspace." The food concession stands within each area carries through the theme; "Fizz, Sizzle, Pop"; Wildebeest Feast"; and "Quantum Bits." The 30 auditoria are located off the soundstage lobby and within the various themed areas.

The architecture seems to come alive in the Animation area. The space is designed to resemble an animation cel: "flat, two-dimensional, cartoon-like graphics are outlined with black lines, filled with color and applied on an exaggerated scale." The Fizz, Sizzle, Pop concession's identity and blimp directional signs seem to float in a blue sky with flat, cut-out clouds. The setting for Action/ Adventure recalls a rainforest with heavy hanging leaves, bamboo and rock "carved" directional signs. The custom wall covering features petroglyphs of cave people carrying popcorn, megaphones and movie cameras. The fiber optic eyes peering from behind the leaves in the Wildebeest Feast stand change color. They also appear above rock outcroppings down the corridor. Patrons are invited to explore an abstract, futuristic world in Cyberspace where the floor and ceiling are the same color and brushed aluminum columns rise partway to the ceiling. To create the illusion of "endless space." custom light fixtures project beams of light along the walls and backlit graphic images have neon edges. Various colored lights and a high-tech fluorescent green/orange acrylic sign help to define the Quantum Bits concession area in Cyberspace."
