Movie Narration:
My name is Alex and i am part the BMS digital arts class which went to San Francisco for the Maker Faire.  We flew virgin America which is an airline that provides an entertainment touch screen on the back of each seat.  We arrived at the airport and then got a ride to a Comfort Inn and Suites where we stayed.  Later that day we went to see Noise Bridge, a group that makes and programs machinery.  We then went to Jac's brother's apartment were everyone played guitar hero for the whole time.  The next day we went to the Exploratorium and met Joe Grant from Prototype This and finaly saw a Baseball game at AT&T Stadium.  Then on Saturday we got to go to the Maker Faire and had a great time, we saw many feats of enginearing and programing that people had made for the Maker Faire and like I said we all had a great time.

Today i opened my Ds lite and figured out one small piece needs to be sauntered on.  I also learned that the springs in a ds lite for the L & R triggers is very simple and is not entirely necessary to make the triggers work.

Today I learned that the program python has the most confusing tutorials ever!!!

See if you can figure out what this means.

Day 2

Today i figured out the process of making a hover craft in Phun.
After i figured out what the necessary elements were i reverse engineared a pre-made hover craft and stripped it down to the main mechanics that made it fly.
I learned that having one large circle with 60-70 small circles and conecting them with springs to the center it will gain the abillity to fly or hover.
