Final Extra Credit Opportunity Ted Talk--Micro Sculptor

The following link will take you to an amazing Ted Talk. The video clip isn't particularly academic or scholarly, but Willard Wiggan's feat is so fantastical that I wanted to share it with you. Listen and comment below.

  2. I found this video really interesting. I think it's so cool how he makes these things so freaking small. I would love to watch him actually make something. But I really love the house he made its crazy how he did it.

  3. This video was very interesting. He actually dedicated his time well creating these microscopic works of art. The way he created his tools and what he used to make them was very interesting. It makes me think of what could be done with our imaginations like he did.

  4. His art was amazing, ill give him that but looking at the way he speaks and the way he gives his persentation its easy to tell why he is sooo slow with his words. He talked about having to slow down his heart beat so he had a minute and a half in between... WOW... I couldnt even begin to imagine that and I can stand back while im thinking that its boreing to listen to him and realize that after he spends most of his life slowwing down his heart rate and mind it would be impossible to speed it back up for a personn stuck in a fast paced city life.

  5. I found this video be very boring. I tried hanging in but honestly, I found none of it interesting. I did find a little comedy with the beginning hoping that it would be good but I didn't find as appealing as others.
