On Thursday we went to the Duetches Museum. While there I got to see a ton of amazing things and not even close to the entire museum. During our free time I think one of the most interesting parts was the glass technologies section.
This section talked a lot about how glass making techniques have evolved throughout time. It was very interesting to see the passage of different manufacturing processes that I had learned about in other classes evolve from simply glass blowing to injection molding. On top of all of that the museum had a glass blower on site that was making a different glass trinkets to sell. It was really cool to watch this very old art style taking place right before my eyes. Overall the Duetches Museum was a great experience and I look forward to being there again very soon for our second day.
Agreed! Glass blowing in general is something that takes a lot of skill and time to perfect and i think the process of creating it is something that is very interesting. It was a wonderful exhibit!
ReplyDeleteI loved the live glass blowing! It really gave you the perspective. It reminded me of when we went to Delft & the painters were painting right there in front of us! :)
