Text: 15 The report of Robert Rydell also compares the Waters Painting and EPCOT, but in light of scholarly literature on the history of World's Fairs, theme parks, and amusement parks. The report lists common elements such as globes, ampitheatres, landforms, railroads and boats, national representations, a United States pavilion, horticulture, landscaping and overall plan, globalization, and lakes. R6-152, Exh. 2 at unnumbered 1-2. The report next observes that most of these elements were commonly seen at World's Fairs prior to the development of either the Painting or EPCOT. Id. at unnumbered 2-3. The report catalogs some similarities in placement of elements between the Painting and EPCOT but generally does not describe the placement of such elements in World's Fairs. The report also includes a long section on the development and history of World's Fairs and theme parks. Finally, it concludes that 16 [t]he arrangement of individual elements at EPCOT was neither coincidental nor happenstance. While individual elements in the EPCOT design may have been inspired by World's [F]airs, the arrangement of these modules into a thematic whole appears to have been strongly influenced by Mark Waters' Miniature Worlds [P]ainting. 17 Id. at unnumbered 8. The report does not describe any specific expression or expressive effect of the arrangement of elements.
