One of the funny things about the whole Eccentrick experience was that I ended up signing up for security hours in the art room....even though I don't actually take an art course (hey, all security sheets looked the same to me!) Nevertheless, it was a pretty darned awesome way to spend my birthday week and take a little break from reality for a while.
This blog will take the form of a random list of memories, so here we go...
-Finding out how to shut down all the lights in the art area (so many switches...)
-Finding out that the art show apparently extended to religion and that weird hallway...the forest one...on the last day when it was too late to fully appreciate it.

-Trying to find a way to make one of those Grade 11 picture frames to STAY stuck on that wall (it kept trying to fall out).
-The SKULL. Oh my...the skull...that sound never got annoying, and it was always fun to watch people pull that thing with no idea what was going to happen. Come to think of it, it was also nice to look at all the different skulls. For me, it was a very sentimental piece (they were all based off of the dead, after all).
-Isha Pinto made a pretty darned awesome card rotating door. Oh, and the rest of the house was pretty neat, too.
-The distorted drawings past the Train area. Those were actually pretty awesome.
-Oh, and the train area. Some of my friends have very odd personalities.
-I would seriously pay cash money for those cabinets in the Construction Tech. area

-The box-like thing in the Freak area. It's a REAL shame that it broke.
-Come to think of it, everything else in the Freak area. Trying to think too hard about them makes my head hurt.
-Whoa! I haven't seen pop-up books in ages! Unfortunately, I only discovered them on Friday, so by the time I opened them up, it was pretty much broken.
-Entering the dark rooms and using that weird rotating door for the first time (seriously)
-So that's what the rest of my classmates' multiple exposures and collages look like! Mine doesn't really look so good anymore.
-My biggest regret during the art show? I watched only ONE film from start to finish during the whole thing, and that was only because I was touring St. Aidan's around.

-Realising with a heavy heart that I can't participate in next year's art show due to the lack of an art/tech elective. Sigh...

Don't have a regret!
It was the best five dollars ever spent. Plus, the movies are always going to be on YouTube.
Being St. Aiden tour guides! Now that was fun. At least you were informing them about alot. Plus, the film we got to watch was cool yet mildly scary. Simply. Hilarious. "Developer. Stop. Death!" ? I believe? Yeahs, truly the art show was a great experience especially considering it was your first time. Ward always exceeds peoples' expectations.
One thing I didn't like about the art show was that you had to pay to see the Religion and the Arts exhibit while the show across the hall was FREE. Really disappointing ! Good post, Jed and keep up the good stuff!
Try Religion and the Arts en francais! (: ... La religion et l'arts :D HRT 3M2/F LOL.
