my new best friend, cultural interpreter Ramsey is my homeboy
i better ask if we can beading bros because he's exactly what i looooove: art and math and physics
teaching me about beads and shit, and even bridges (compression vs. suspension)<3
topics:
quillwork weaving
pony beads are glass too
hand pump drill to drill beads
elk teeth to show hunter's abilities
spongebob beadwork
dragon beadwork
cherokee dragons - lizard with wings
lakota dragons - fire breathing water serpents
beaded pens, beaded clicker (tension keeps the beaded net together)
beadwork as MATH lessons --taught on reservations!
scooping beads up with the needle
quill-->beads-->plastic beads-->lacework
sinew - tendon which hardens, can be pulled apart like string cheese, one end left hard to be a needle!
talking about bridges--how europeans use compression (domes, hammer/nails) and latin americans used suspension technology
why indians never used the wheel (but they did have wheels)--Plains Terrain (no roads) would make wheels sink in, bandwagons always breaking apart, travoy's would bounce along, and also that indians didnt have large domestic animals (except south americans who have llamas who could just carry things up the highway)
TOO. COOL.
