clears it up beyond a doubt. If this pic wasn't used before, I've love to hear where Shin Seiki might recognize the floor pattern from.

Anyone have any info on what color the floor and walls are actually intended to be? (I'm trying to draw it, and I just realized I have no idea what colors it ought to be...)

LuigiHann wrote:That is relevent, but I'm just wondering why if Gendo's office has a black floor with white symbols, that in other shots it looks like a white floor with black symbols. I guess it's probably a metallic floor and the symbols are just embossed into it or something in a way that plays with light, because it doesn't make much sense otherwise. I was wondering if any production drawings where the room's colors are labeled.

zuggy wrote:Yes, the floor seems to be reflective of light while the symbols don't. I think they are both black and the light in the room plays an important role in how they look. I looked around FGC and couldn't find any production sketches of Gendou's office.

One of the strongest proponents of a theory of consciousness founded on Quantum Theory is Roger Penrose in person, one of the leading British physicists of our times. In his opinion, consciousness must be a quantum phenomenon because neurons are too big to account for consciousness. Inside neurons there is a "cytoskeleton", the structure that holds cells together, whose "microtubules" (hollow protein cylinders 25-nanometers in diameter) control the function of synapses. Penrose believes that consciousness is a manifestation of the quantum cytoskeletal state and its interplay between quantum and classical levels of activity.

If you go to this point in the show (episode 4) we see Rei's familiar lightbody scan. You can't see it in the screenshot here, but there are a number of targets all over Rei's body along the gridlines that run over her. Some of them are red while others are green, corresponding to whether or not her body is injured in those places. Anyway, it reminds me of acupuncture diagrams, if anyone here knows about this subject then are these points major nodes for the body/main meridian points? I once saw a picture with EVA-01 in bandages with various acupuncture needles, but I can't remember whether it was fanart or of the show's creators.

Also, in the same episode, if I remember right, Rei is waiting next to Shinji while he is in Nerv's hospital-regenerator-thingy (HRT). In a couple of shots through the glasses she is carrying around you can see the hospital equipment looks similar to that used to born Rei in the AEL. Wondering if any connections could be raised from that (is there a similar process going on in both rooms?).

I'm guessing you'll delete this thread while not deleting something like The Shadow Boner!! thread, lol.
