Wellington Update

Hi everyone, this is Hans from Brooklyn School. We recently had a movie night displaying 3 short films. We raised roughly 5 thousand dollars! That's a big leap closer to getting you guys over here. Also our "Go without for Christchurch" is coming to a close. We don't know how much we have raised altogether, but we'll have a number soon. Some people have raised more than 400 dollars alone! We've also organised a raffle with a whole bunch of cool prizes, including a ride on a Harley and a vintage electric guitar. B-) Oh, and guess what? We even had an interview with George Heagney from the Wellingtonian Newspaper. We told them all about how we are going to get you guys over, and how excited we are. Oh, and any other ideas for where you want to go? Keep us posted, Hans and Hugo

Time Lapse Video




I'm not sure if I'm impressed or disgusted. This video was created by taking a photo every 40 minutes for 74 days. The result is quite interesting.

Andy Warhol Portraits



We've been learning about Pop Art and one of its pioneers Andy Warhol. He is famous for his portraits and  we've used a programme www.befunky.com (thanks to Mr Ryan and Mr Paxie for the heds up) to make our own Warhol style portraits.
