Childrens’ TVs

We went to the Seattle Childrens’ Museum yesterday. It is a pretty cool place to go on a chilly rainy day, especially now that we’ve reached toddlerhood. But one thing I don’t much like about the place is how there are so many TV screens built into things. They play short video loops that are obviously supposed to be "educational" — and are usually very boring with low quality video and audio. Still, I hate seeing our kid run over to a toy car, for example, climb in and happily start turning the steering wheel and pressing buttons until the TV catches his attention and suddenly the gleeful expression is replaced by a glazed hypnotic one.

Other toddler play spaces do this too. The Seattle Zoo’s "Zoomazium" is a great playspace, but also has little TVs built into things — although a couple of them are cool: inside a play cave there is a very large screen showing underwater scenes of fish. It is large enough and in this weird dark cave such that it doesn’t seem like TV so much as a window to the ocean. And a video of landscapes is projected very large onto the wall behind the play "mountain", giving a cool sense of space. But there are other little TVs here and there that are more like those at the Childrens’ Museum.

In my opinion, toddler play places should have fewer TVs and more drums!

179/365 Don’t Walk

Most Wednesdays I have to drop my moms car off outside her school and walk back home. So I figured I might as well take the opportunity to take a few photos on my journey. I love the boldness of the red in this one.
In other news all my video that I took at the gig has been separated and labelled ready to be given to whoever is editing what bit, and I went through a 2 hour audio file and spliced it into individual songs. Good going if you ask me.
