Location: ... huh? where am I? And how did I end up here?

Some times my mind has a Visual Reaction of the Third Kind. I instantly, or perhaps almost sure know, this picture [thing, artifact, painting] I've seen before! Althought I'm almost sure I never have. What, where or how .. takes usually some time to figure out. I just now had one of these "lightbulb" moments ..

So now Your turn ... Found this picture at -- http://chiso.uruslasthope.com/ -- under Objects by a Linkie from these very Forums. Some great Concept Art pictures to be found right there! Have a peek!

OK .. So that's an early sketch for a KI Interface ..!? Right! But hey .. what's the thing in the upper left corner?
It don't look like that now? No, that ended up looking like this ...

So .. what is it in that early sketch? .. Try and figure out .. before You look at below.

-- This thing exists in many forms and shapes. Usually called the "Vitruvian Man"
here a version form Leonardo da Vincis hand. See the similarity to the pix at top?

I see the point but you forgot to point out the maintainers eye. In this particular case I think it must not be the same. It's a great question for Rand at next Mysterium though!

Well .. yes .. the "maintainers eye" [if that is what it is] is added to the concept. Off course it's not the same, just a mere copy, but perhaps influenced by something. Like everything seems to be in art, design or architecture.

This figure may have more recemblance to that of the KI ..

Actually... that's an ingame screenshot from Choru. The KI was infact like that during Cyan's Choru Beta. That's not merely a concept sketch.. it was a real implementation.
