We visited the Australian Journey’s exhibit on Friday.
The exhibits that stood out were:
1. Maps. The simplicity and unique nature of the diagrams. Also the story about the equator being too hot to cross and that religion said that beasts found past the equator would be an abomination. I like the words, looks like latin. Could the map be animated or manipulated in some way? Could I make an Australian/Southern map with similar aspects. NMA Four World Maps Collection
2. Jars of mud and sea creatures. I could make my own jars… I’m thinking clear liquid with a leaf, a flower, a blade of grass… photographed and represented in a 3D perspective, using some kind of 3D Model plus projection.
3. Musical Instruments - Make a website where you can play those instruments. Alternatively, try to research heavily the olive-oil tin that was used by the guy for his instrument. Looking up its history instead.
