Rube Goldberg

I found the article, "Rube Goldberg- Inspired Drawings of How Art is Made" by Thomas A. Oakley and the website www.rubegoldberg.com very fun and entertaining. It reminded me of a computer game I used to play when I was little. I would have to place a variety of objects on the screen to make one thing happen. Now that I have read this article and viewed the website I now know it was very similar to Rube Goldberg's work. 

In the article the art teacher assigned his students to draw a picture how art is made. I think this would be fun to see how other people think art is made. Also it was fun to flip through the website and see some of Rube Goldbergs work. It is very creative how he makes things come about. It would be fun to try and reenact one of his drawings.
