Art is Math?

Have you ever thought I wish I was in art instead of being in math. Well, today Angela and I found out you can do art in math or vice versa. You can just draw spirals or shapes that are connected and color the spaces in as long as the colored in spaces don't touch. When you draw a squiggle, a line in which both lines connect, and weave the lines you draw, you create a snake.

Angela and I drew our own spirals/snakes.The creator of the video said that whatever you draw, the games will work out, but a few times Angela and I messed up and it didn't work.

Hello World! A Lego Printer that Works

Student: Nikita

Watch the video below. The printer in the video was built from scratch by Squirrelfantasy, a member of the B3ta forums, which is a geeking engineering group online. Here’s his description from the YouTube page:

Lego felt tip 110″ printer connected to an Apple Mac. This is not a kit you can buy and does not use mindstorms. I designed/built/coded it all from scratch including analog motor electronics, sensors and printer driver, the USB interface uses a “wiring” board.

Use the above description to write a news story about this videoclip. Include information such as what do you like about it and what skills would be involved in building a printer with Legos. Also, tell readers what "Hello World" means. Hint: Consult this Wikipedia page for a definition. Remember to include the five W's of a news story: who, what, when, where, and why.

Embed the code for the video into your post. Ms. Moorhead can show you how.
