u-huuuu!!
went to watch da vinci exhibition at the science centre last sunday.
must say tt the queue was super long....
we reached at abt 3 then eat mac till 4.
buy ticket.. n queue until we finally got in at abt 5pm
tot last day nobody but seems lyk everybody also same mentality.
wait till last day then go in.
have to say tt i was kinda disappointed with the exhibition.
the paintings n replicas of his diary n notebk were ok.
but it's the part where they make little models out of his theories tt disappoint me.
those models r untouchable except a few. n i min really few..
wads the pt if we cant experiment with his theories?
then how r we supposed to marvel at his thinkings?
for all i noe, none of his theories might even work..
im not saying tt they really need to go n create a life size model lyk the pyramid parachute tt da vinci tot out of.
but they can make very small models n some experiments for us to test.
abit lyk the experiment tt we do when we r in sch.. the one tt requires us to use straw n paper to create a parachute to send the egg down safely.
so basically the exhibition was more lyk a glance, read the summary..
understand? gd for u..
dun understand? too bad.. there's nth else tt we can do.
anyway, the entrance ticket was $15. maybe they have a tight budget.
but i seriously wouldnt mind paying more if i can try out those theories.
aft the exhibition, this is wad i tink of da vinci.
i tink tt the reason y he is called a genius is because....
in his era, there's very little known abt measurements, n also intruments to measure.
but yet everything he created, including his sketches n paint..
he was able to get such accurate measurements thru long observation.
just lyk the last supper painting, he observed pple's facial expression n also body movement for very long before he decided on the 12 apostles' action n expression n also jesus' action n expression.
n also for his technical drawings, the angles all matches.
n the vitruvian man, he was able to draw the pic with such accuracy.
but other than that, because i didnt get to try out his experiments, so i dunno if he's correct on those thinking.
anyway, we saw the pocong!!!
for those who dunno what is a pocong..
pls watch this clip..
i wanted to watch h is for hantu..
but nobody wans to accompany me..
anyway, there's one exhibition at da vinci also look lyk the pocong..
when i turned arnd n saw it, i immediately told me sis "pocong.."
n the she kept laughing n laughing while looking at it.
everyone arnd us was lyk "wads so funny"
but it really looks funny lah..
abit lyk an astronaut suit but for a human to go underwater.
ahhh. i tok alot alrdy.
too bad for those who didnt went to see.
but in a way, it's also gd lah..
gng shopping ltr.. BYE BYE!!!
