The textile machines were pretty cool, too difficult for me to use, but neat. Also the am punt of silkworms the silk industry would have uses, the numbers I heard today are significantly higher than what I thought it took. Learning about the Lumiere brothers was interesting as well, they were very talented men with their photography enhancements and other inventions. Their house was also a nice sight even if it was the smallest house they had built. Overall, these were some neat sights to see, looking forward to see more.
At the tour of Lumiere Institute I found it interesting that the brothers were always inventing new things together, even if one invented something they both took the credit together. I also did not realize the brothers invented things for medical advancement.
ReplyDeleteI was so sad when I found out that they had to kill the worms before they hatched into butterflies. It's sad that so many of them had to die. Plus..... We didn't NEED silk. Royal rich people just wanted it. i was playing around with my little dead silk worm and I don't fully understand why they need and entire kilometer (unbroken) of this stuff. Can't they just weave it all together and not kill things?
