Jane Goodall
"The most important thing I can say to you -- yes, you who are now reading this -- is that you, as an individual, have a role to play and can make a difference. You get to choose: do you want to use your life to try to make the world a better place for humans and animals and the environment? Or not?"

Stephen Hawking
“In science fiction, space and time warps are a commonplace. They are used for rapid journeys around the galaxy, or for travel through time. But today's science fiction, is often tomorrow's science fact. So what are the chances for space and time warps.”

Developed Sketchup Model
The top texture is transparent which is a man-made texture symbolising light passing through glass
The mid texture is wooden which also is a man-made texture which can symbolise wood
AND the bottom texture is brittle which is a natural texture that reveals a name of a particular rock.Piccinini's work is "We Are Family", when I first looked at this masterpiece, I thought this was a painting shown by the background but I realised it was a sculpture. The way Piccinini created this masterpiece is that she must have used some form of rubber or clay to create the mother and the babies. They were organised in some kind of sofa bed which looks like a curved swimming pool. The way Piccinini designed the animals is that they look like bizzare human like dogs, I didn't mean to criticise her artwork but it find the design of animals really strange.Swallows work looks really futuristic by the design of the skulls. The skulls must have been made by a variety of materials such as LED light as well as different kinds of plastic materials. The top part of the skull and the bottom of the jaw uses a variety of colours such as red, blue and green to make it really futuristic. What I find interesting about this artwork is that they look more like bionic skulls and are clearly related to the designs of a robot head by it's aesthetics and function.

Horton Hears A Who- Experiment One
This film as you can see deals with an elephant named Morton who discovers a speck which apparently is a strange living microsopic environment called Whoville which is a town dominated by unusual species, The Whos. The colony of Whoville clearly relates to couple of my experiment words which is WEIRD and UNIQUE. The town of Whoville is considered to be weird because of the structure of the built environment and looks more like a small planet, we see that Morton the elephant heads for a journey and he assumes that there were noises which symbolise cry for help. The town of Whoville is considered to be unique because of the size of it's planet which looks remarkably small.

My Stairs Sketchup
Here are my sketches, one stairs( top to exhibition) is the octagon stairs and other stairs (exhibition to bottom) is the hexagon stairs
Here is my stairs, unfortunalety I found it hard to upload people onto my model because it's unable to be pasted into my model, when I pressed the box with the arrow opening outwords, the page was unable to display and another problem is that when I upload the person, it is loacted in another document and I deosn't allow me to paste it on my model.
YIPPEE!!!!, I managed to add people to my model on Wednesday 9th April 2008, but I didn't add more than one person in my model which was not a big deal anyway I got some help from some of the experts who use Sketchup.
