Growth From Conflict
The model created reflects the conflict between Poseidon and Athena using to seperate pipes to represent Athena and Poseidon. As the pipes are moved they can reveal or hide the ‘gi s’ the two Greek Gods intended to give Athens.
LEGEND
Developing from the first design, introducing a second pipe to reveal/ hide the ‘gi Athena gave Athen’s, the green pipe is moved backwards and forwards revealing the gi using the winch which is connected to the green pipe. The green pipe is also connected to the spring to move the green pipe forwards to hide the gi .
SECTION VIEW
As the winch pulls the green pipe backwards, it causes the spring to release tension stretching out the spring. The red pipe remains stationary, allowing the gi to be revealed.
Once the winch has been pulled out all the way, the spring then contracts, pulling the green pipe forwards, creating greater tension on the spring and hiding the gi .

Growth From Conflict
The first iteration shows two pipes, which can both be moved manually, both revealing a ‘gi ’ on either side, the green representing Athena and red Poseidon.
The second iteration shows one pipe represnting Athena’s story, the pipe can be moved using the gear and string which is a ached to pipe, as you turn the gear this winds up the string causing the pipe to move backwards and forwards revealing the gi .
The third iteration shows two pipes, the red pipe is fixed to the platform and the green pipe moves backwards and fowards using a gear and string, this relates to the myth by the two pipes conflicting eachother and the green pipe revealing the gi .
The last iteration shows two pipes, the red pipe is fixed to the platform, while the green pipe representing Athena, the green pipe has two springs a ached to one end and the other has a rod connected to the other end, as you pull and push the rod this causes the green pipe to move backwards and fowards, revealing the gi .

ATTACHMENT DETAILS
MODEL IN CONTEXT- AMDC BUILDING
The winch will be a ached to the platform using two hinges.
Hinge 100mm x 40mm
Hinge 100mm x 40mm
5mm bolt and nut
The red pipe which does not move is fixed the platform using a 5mm bolt and nut and glued to the platform.
Light Green Pipe
Red Pipe Winch
The model is situated in AMDC on the concrete coloumns. As the person pulls down on the winch pulling back the green pipe, the light is revealed allowing it to shine through.
