Metaphor Machine 1st Blog Post

I am going to reflect on the work I have done to help complete metaphor machine with my partners Nash, Gabi, Michael, Anatolia and Zakaria.

  In the past week or so it has all been planing. First we had to select the revolution we were going to do and we selected the English Civil War. I thought this was an ok choose at first as we really wanted the French Revolution but, after we did some research I think we will be able to put together a good machine that makes sense. 

  

 Secondly we made a time line too our revolution and it turned out great. Gabi did the bulk of the writing as her printing is the neatest and we all brain stormed and researched ideas and facts to put on the timeline. The timeline was well organized, neat and displayed our facts throughly. The only thing we could of improved on was the big picture organization. We had took the 4 stages of Crane Britons Theory of Revolution and put it on the timeline. I think we could of done some colour organization of the series of events it would be more clear cut. 

  

 Finally we created a sketch of our machine it was pretty basic. I think the idea of our machine are very likely to change but, the idea of a marble/ball rolling down a ramp activating machines is a solid idea and I hope we can use it.

  

 Overall I thought we were productive at making a good plan and am exited to move on to the creation of the machine and its metaphors.
