GATHER, STORE, RE-COMBINE - A History of Imagination (Part 3)

IN PART 3 of our History of Imagination, Wayne Szalinski & others take over the Magic Eye Theater, and the whole pavilion becomes institutionalized in one of the most divisive events in the history of Disney Theme Parks.

 

Highlights include…

• The loss of Epcot’s “Center”
• Honey, I started a Franchise!
• The Ramifications of “Flow”  
• Why bad attractions happen to good pavilions
• A discussion of Color Psychology (Imagination Style)

Magnetic Objectivity - The E82 Perspective

When I started this project over a year ago, I wanted E82 to be sent apart from all other Epcot centered sites on the digital frontier. One of the ways to do this was to not dwell in the land of negativity for too long (if at all). But waxing over the short comings of any particular segment of history is a far worst crime. With the upcoming release of “The History of Imagination” Part III, we’ll be delving into some of the most subversive events in the history of not just Imagination but all of Epcot.

For the past several months I have agonized over the proper tone of this and future releases, therefore “Constructive Objectivity” is new philosophy of all expositions done for E82. It’s a blend of the Constructive critique and Objective historical analysis. Which means that any criticisms of past or current attractions will be with the specific intention of the providing a dialogue for progress, and counteracted by providing new solutions to the challenges faced by today’s Epcot.
