List of tasks/ man power:
Cubes : 1000 cubes to be made, gather a team of workers, each one makes 10 cubes?
100 person, or 200 person each one makes 5 cubes... etc
Welding of connectors : professional welders to produce connectors as per drawing specification
Transportation of material
Wood units :
wood worker, making of a gabarit with plywood
cutting angle of wood properly
build the diamond frames
Infill furniture:
small cafe table with 4 chairs
optional : electrical outlet for evening use

Cubes attached together into a "wig" like skin to put over the dome:
Team of 2 person, 4 teams?
Cubes are attached together into basic units (depending on the permanent nature of the work, if its to be a non-detachable unit, rivets will be used; if dismantled to be mobile, screws and bolts will be used)
After dome is completed, it will be anchored to the ground with stone/sand flooring

All QR codes and links to url are proposed by the Artist creator.
Model for the final construction:
A model of 50cm diameter (or smaller) will be made so the individual pieces could be easily assembled.
Man Power source:
>Universities will be contacted to see if architecture students might like to participate in the construction of the final unit
Sponsors call :
> funding from Art friendly corporations -
> professional welders
> construction wood material supply
> Garden chair and table set
> recycled aluminum cans (3000 of 500ml)
> tea set, and tea leaves

> iphone film, video cam, memory disk (shock proof 2 ter)
A list of names of all participants, sponsor will be printed into a large poster, if sponsor wish to remain anonymous, that is also possible.
This is to show the assemblage spirit, how small incremental work could combine to make a big (moderately big) project.

children's drawing into paintings
Here the original children works are more powerful than the paintings.
http://www.amusingplanet.com/2011/04/monster-engine-childrens-drawings.html
Dave Devries takes sketches of monsters drawn by children purely from their imagination and renders them realistically giving them a truly devilish look. His collection of drawings and paintings form a 48-page book “The Monster Engine”.
Devries would project a child’s drawing with an opaque projector, and then faithfully trace each line. Applying a combination of logic and instinct, he then paint the image as realistically as he can using primarily acrylic, airbrush, and colored pencil.

Says Dave Devries:
It began at the Jersey Shore in 1998, where my niece Jessica often filled my sketchbook with doodles. While I stared at them, I wondered if color, texture and shading could be applied for a 3D effect. As a painter, I made cartoons look three dimensional every day for the likes of Marvel and DC comics, so why couldn’t I apply those same techniques to a kid’s drawing? That was it... no research, no years of toil, just the curiosity of seeing Jessica’s drawings come to life.

Both the original line drawing and the colored pictures are great.
Creative Dad Colors His Kids’ Drawings During His Business Trips
187K views
Fred Giovannitti, a self-described artist, dad, inventor, environmentalist and entrepreneur (whom we’ve written about before here)
has a wonderful habit of taking his kids’ drawings with him when he
goes on business trips and adding his own artistic and colorful touches.
Giovannitti lives in Delaware, but
spends as much as a third of his year abroad. He has spent the last 4
years taking his children’s drawings with him to stay, in a way,
connected to them. He says that Sofia (age 8), Jaxton (age 5) and
Freddie (age 9) are always happy to see how the pieces come out.
Dad’s quite the interesting character –
when he’s not flying about to do high-end tattoos, he created industrial
equipment designed to help protect marine ecosystems. Check out his
site, because there’s a lot to see!
