Fortified structures
For the past five weeks or so, part of LS1 has been learning about fortified structures and the nature of technology by developing a table top game.
The premise of the table top game is that a village of people in the very old days where people could only make simple wooden structures, when along comes a bunch of invaders to steal their food and resources. After playing the game (and losing) the villagers researched earthworks technologies to fortify and protect their village. The technology that each group researched and presented was then allowed to be used in their game.
Each week LS1 played this game the winners in most cases were very clear, the side with the more advanced technology. Due to this, the losing side researched more advanced technologies to give themselves the advantage.
Over the four weeks of play, research, and development, LS1 have ended up with an engaging game that has taught them about iron age, medieval, and pre-industrial siege fortification and weaponry. The fortified structures group have also developed an idea of the nature of technology, when technology and society mutually adapt and develop each other cyclically.

Filming with a smartphone
Have you decided to record your movie on your smartphone?
Are you missing a tripod or smartphone mount for your tripod?
Are you missing a tripod or smartphone mount for your tripod?
Have you got some Lego lying around?
If your answer to each of these questions is "YES", then why not build your own tripod?
This is a tripod I put together in a rush. It is designed for a 156 x 75 x 7.3mm smartphone (adjustable) to be held in landscape orientation. The tripod also has a limited ability to act as a dolly. With minor adjustment, the tripod can also tilt steadily or be set to a chosen tilt angle.
I look forward to reading about your own advances on my idea.
Mr Wong
