Idea Change - To Illustrations

Upon a re-evaluation of the progress of my work and where my mind is, I have decided to change my project. Rather than creating a Rude Goldberg machine that I will have to set up after every use I have looked into the original design which was just an illustration to show the idea.
While looking into this I decided to look into combining old and new, similar to what I was doing by bringing the old idea of the machine into modern technology and everyday items. I looked into Ancient Civilisations that have been long dead and modern technology/life and how can i combine them. I found a quite during my research which I based my new idea of off.

From this quote I mocked up some initial designs (which can be found in my sketchbook (Red one marked FMP) of Ancient Civilisations using or showcasing modern day technology and from there designed my first illustration (The first Egyptian illustration) which I updated to more suit my style as I drew more. I am happier drawing these illustrations than I was making the installation.
