part 2



-This is Charles Babbage, the man who invented the first computer. The first computers took up a whole wall, and they were hard to manage so very few people had them.  It took Charles Babbage about 33 years to make the first computer so that another reason very few people had computers when they first came out. In this picture he is fixing a bad tube.

The funds to buy the computer were raised by a Christmas Fair,Summer Fete,and other events organised by the parents who undertake to support the school." http://www.jon.hinchliffe.name/jonathan/claydon-high-school-in-the-papers-in-1981/


- this is the 2010 IMac, it has photo booth were you can take warped photos and you can put apps on there, but there not perfect they do have some problems. sometimes the corners of the screens appear very bright so it flushes the rest of the brightness or colors. 




- this is the iPhone 5, the newest iPhone, which is very different from the other iPhone's. the iPhone 5 is longer and takes more clear pictures. it also has a different charger which some people don't like; altogether the iPhone 5 has positive changes.










- this is a 45:00+ video about the history of computer. it talks about how people first communicated  what they looked like and how and when it was made. it talks about the people who helped it the help of computers. this is a good video of computer history if you are interested in it.

2001 A Space Odyssey


2001 A Space odyssey
Yesterday my interesting teacher, Mr. Ellis, showed me a very weird video called dawn of man 2001 space odyssey. Now I have to write a blog about it.
 In the video the characters are monkeys and a tapir, but the main character seems to be a monkey toward the end who realizes that animal bones can be broken and when he’s breaking the bones the screen changes to a tapir and it falls. That might show that after the monkeys “evolve into humans” they become the top of the food chain.
Whenever the director changed scenes it always shows you the sunset or sunrise or something. I don’t understand why it does that it could be showing you later that day or year after most of the monkeys have died off or left.
The monkeys seemed to scream, stomp their foot, and jump a lot when that big black tower thing. When they saw the tower I don’t know if it was making noises or if it was just an effect, but the monkeys looked like they were trying to threaten it thinking it would go away like it was an animal. When it didn't go away they got close sand tried to touch it. The monkeys seem some-what smart because they did attempt to get it to go away, but they still looked dumb and funny.
This video makes no since to me because it goes from the monkeys into a cave and then they came out and start screaming at this big black tower think then it shows you a sun set. Next thing you know you see a monkey breaking bones, and a tapir falling. You should watch the video yourself, and see if you understand it
