00:00:00Once upon a time, in the heart of a bustling town, tumored, there was a curious sculpture called the Sound of Sky, the physical ring -six
-
00:00:08This intriguing piece of art was created by the talented artist Wataru Hamasaka and looked like a giant twisted knot made of smooth white stone
-
00:00:17In this lively place, the Sound of Sky was a symbol of strength and flexibility
-
00:00:24The town's people admired how the sculpture twisted and turned, creating a beautiful and mysterious shape
-
00:00:30It seemed as if the stone had been gently tied into a knot, defying its solid nature
-
00:00:37The secret behind the Sound of Sky's mesmerizing form lay in the special techniques
-
00:00:41used by its creator
-
00:00:43The artist carefully shaped and polished the stone, making sure it could bend and twist without breaking
-
00:00:50Engineers use similar principles when they design structures that need to be both strong and flexible, like modern skyscrapers that can sway in the wind or during an earthquake
-
00:01:00One day, a young boy named Max discovered the Sound of Sky while exploring the town with his friends
-
00:01:07Max was fascinated by the sculpture and wondered how such a hard material could be shaped into such a delicate form
-
00:01:14He learned that the stone's flexibility came from the way it was crafted, with the artist paying close attention to every curve and twist
-
00:01:23Max was inspired by the sculpture and decided to create his own masterpiece
-
00:01:28He gathered clay from his art supplies and began to shape it into different forms
-
00:01:34Max twisted and turned the clay, just like the Sound of Sky, making sure it was strong and flexible
-
00:01:40When he finished, he had created a miniature version of the sculpture, a tiny knot that captured the same magic as the original
-
00:01:48Now, it's your turn to be an artist and an engineer
-
00:01:52Let's create our own twisted shapes using clay or play dough
-
00:01:56Try to bend and twist the material without breaking it
-
00:02:00Think about how you can make it strong and flexible, just like the Sound of Sky
-
00:02:06Here's something to think about, and what other objects can you create that need to be both strong and flexible
-
00:02:13Creating art and designing structures is all about using our imagination and understanding how things work together
-
00:02:21By learning from sculptures like the Sound of Sky, we can create wonderful and lasting creations
-
00:02:27Keep exploring and building young engineers and artists
-
00:02:31The world is full of amazing things, waiting to be discovered and created by brilliant minds like yours
