Evelyn Glennie

One thing that I'll remember about her performance is that she put her movements into it. Also she used all different types of tones in her song. Another thing I will remember is that she seemed to know where all the keys were and what sounds and vibrations they made.

She changed what the audience heard by the distance of where they were sitting and the different sticks she used.

By saying "Each person experiences music in their own way" I think she meant that music is a different experience to everyone and that there isn't a specific way people experience music. Also I think not everyone enjoys the same music because of the tones of different types of music some is heavier and some isn't and that affects the experience.

Technology

This article was about electric cars making a come back in 2010. General Motors is making one which will hopefully save there company, and a few other companies are trying their best to make a better electric car.

This topic is important because the cars are better for the Environment and probable save you a lot in gas money. Also these cars could lead to a cool new green way of transportation.

There are a lot of people wondering about if the companies will actually be able to make the cars but for all of the companies lots of people are already ready to buy them let's just hope they can follow through with their promises.

Some obstacles for the idea is that General Motors just recently survived a huge bank ruptcy so it might be hard for them to find money so they can produce the cars. Also they are depending a lot on this car to get them back on track.

Entertainment 2010

In 2010 T.V. will be even more unnecessarily complicated because they be able to watch T.V. on almost anything with a screen. You will be able to watch T.V. on net books cell phones and any other mobile device instead of just a big screen television.

It will be more efficient then unreliable 3G networking and will cost less too. After T.V. Analog was cut it freed up more broadcasting space.

In 2010 this idea will probable made a reality by the end of the year, and because of all the advancements in portable Internet it will probable be fairly easy to use.

I think some setbacks for this would probable being able to distribute it and also getting T.V. channels to agree to it. Also I would have to be expensive to update a lot of new portable devises.

origin of zero

What strikes me about this article is that there was so much trouble in making a number that means nothing, and makes me wonder what the process was when they came up with all the numbers. We decide who discovers what when it’s the first one who recorded proof of them discovering it. Mesopotamians discovered zero because they were the first to create and record them discovering it. I don’t think that the person who came up with the idea of zero was the same person discovered it because it could have been thought up a while ago but some one wrote it down and put it to use. I think map makers and sailors probable spread word of zero by traveling to so many places.

The Locker Problem

Locker Problem

The locker problem was that there were 1000 lockers and each locker needed to be tested by being opened and shut. The first kid opened all the lockers then the second kid changed the state of every other locker then the third kid every three lockers etc…
After going through all the numbers we found there were 31 lockers open. Those specific lockers are open because they were changed the state of an odd number of times like open close open. Strangely all the open lockers are perfect squares like 1 4 9 16 ect... I think the perfect squares are all open because each perfect square goes up by an different odd number. More specifically every locker goes up by a higher odd number as shown in my diagram below. I think this effects why the lockers were open an odd number of times.

Order of Operations

3²(7+2)-32

3+4/2(5²)

8-4/2+5=6

What Is Math? What is Physics?

To me to do math is to learn what makes things work and also to explain things. Math looks like explanations and today's technology. you can find math anywhere to explain something and what makes the technology work. Everyone uses math even if they don't realize it cause math has to do with almost everything.

I think physics is an explanation of the way people and animals move. I think we are doing physics right now because moving can be explained by physics. You can find physics by looking at anything because everything has something to with physics. I think everyone who moves uses physics cause movement is physics.
