Trip to Cambridge

I was impressed with the amount of manual labor that goes into making the mesh. They mentioned that some of the weaving, though it looked easy, was actually very difficult. I thought that the mesh they use on the belts that carried computer chips was cool. The shipping of it was wasteful. It was cool the variety of uses for the mesh, like for a factory belt, in an elevator, and the filter, but I wish they had more variety.

Sculpture

I have been doing research on the scultpture, more specifically on the works of Gabo and Snelson. I have looked a little bit into Hepworth. I have focused more on Snelson and Gabo because of their fascination with space and movement.
