Figure 4.12: Visualization of aMango Being Poisoned by Coal Pollution
Compositions of the earlier draft came from themost basic idea given to the researcher; that is,
when subject-matter expert at Greenpeace, Ms. Kengkaj and Ms. Senpong first talked about the
dirtiness of coal, the researcher remembered they mentioned howmangos that were exposed
to the coal pollution turned black and became poisonous. This image stuck in the researcher’s
mind and he designed the composition of a scene in an early draft showing exactly that image.
One of the six steps toward energy revolution is a smart grid, and it is themost difficult part to
design if the designer does not fully understand how a smart grid functions. The researcher
watched several movies online and readmany articles about smart grid, such as those shown in
Figure 4.13 and Figure 4.14. There are many different variations of smart grid, and this is
important because Greenpeace South East Asia did not specify which type of smart grid is better
than the other, just that a certain property of the smart grid. Smart gridmust contain a switch to
turn itself automatically on and off with the purpose of not wasting any electricity. The
researcher then realized that this is where he and the subject-matter expert must part ways in
terms of what information to be included in the design. The experts can provide information,
but in the end, the job of filtering the information and deciding which information going to be
part of the designwill be up to the designer. Therefore, a designer must understand the subject
thoroughly.
