The combination of letters and numbers I am using is E7. I
plan to incorporate these into my landscape through both a macro, and micro
scale. I have arrived at a strategy of implementing this through a considered
approach, revealing the combination through each scene on both scales. The main
terrain of the island will conceal E7, visible from a bird’s eye view. In
regards to revealing the combination on a micro scale, I will employ the use of
shadows at specific times to cast desired forms. Furthermore, I plan on arranging
objects in quantities of seven to produce an E form. I have also considered the
use of light projection, the deliberate placement of vegetation to create
desired forms, and natural features such as tornados which will aid in
revealing the combination. It is intended that, whilst exploring the island,
elements will subtly reveal the letter and number, suggesting the combination
in a sophisticated manner.
REVEALING AND
CONCEALING THE COMBINATION
Below are images taken from the island, and the several
different methods used to convey the combination of E7.
ISLAND AS A WHOLE
The terrain of the island itself is demonstrates ridges and landforms which convey a lower case e form and the number 7. This is most prominent when viewed aerially, though is not as conspicuous from the ground level.

THE RIVER CANYON
The river canyon itself, is carved form the terrain to display a lover case e shape. When viewed aerially, is can also be read next to a ridge which creates the number 7. Within the canyon, there is a protruding rock which casts a shadow of the number 7 at a specific time of the day.

ROCK FORMATION
The rock formation conveys a capital E form. Furthermore, within the rock formation, through the use of textures, there is a revealing of E7.

OASIS
The oasis is designed as an e shape to hold the water volume. The arrangement of vegetation also contributes to the number aspect of the combination. The placement of rocks and walkways reveals E7, best viewed aerially in a macro scale. The use of shadows has been employed in creating the number 7 at a desired time of the day.

CAVE
Upon entering the cave, there is a message inscribed onto the wall; a way of sending the message from an unseen entity

ABANDONED BASE
The base reveals the letters through the deliberate selection of objects, such as seven storage crates. Through the use of lighting, emphasis has been placed upon the abandoned structure, to reveal one part of the combination, as well as the spreading fire, destructively carving its way through the scene is a deliberate pattern.
