Alexis' Site on Rube Goldberg
For students seeking advice, guidence, and examples for creating RGPs (Rube Goldberg Projects).
Welcome!
My name is Alexis and I am here to help students with their Rube Goldberg science homework. Since the age 5 I've been intregued by Rube Goldberg inventions. Well I'll let you read the rest of my blabbering at the About Me link. Please read the links above to familiarize yourself with my improved site.
Geocities is closing and I'm transfering many pages into this new place. Expect what you see to tripple before the end of July.
Who is Rube Goldberg?
Rube (1883-1970)
was a cartoonist who drew creative "machines". Although he never attempted to actually construct his cartoon masterpieces, many people are trying to make their own! Most of his drawings realistically can't be the blueprints of a project, mainly because he used animals and steps that needed accurate percision; both quite challening if applied in life. If you've never demonstrated or seen a RGP before - it's very hard to have your machine work flawlessly (the goal).
