ARROW 360 - The Go-Cart Project

Over the summer my sons and I built this go-cart. Most of the materials used were found while walking home from school over a period of many weeks.



It was an opportunity for me to teach them about preparing materials, using tools, realizing a concept and a practical application of simple mathematics.



It was also a golden opportunity for us to make a cool little movie. Of course, we just had to reference the BBC title sequence for their Formula One Motor Racing coverage. And I hope Fleetwood Mac won't mind my including a segment of The Chain because nothing comes close for this subject matter.



Cameras: Olympus E-PL1 (with Nikkor prime lenses) and Nikon D200.

Software: Photoshop, Nikon View, GarageBand and iMovie 09.

Hardware: Apple MacBook.

I've got lots of new material to post here. This from Sunday while running around Wave Hill in the Bronx, one of Eoin's most favorite places and ours too.
