I went to the National Motorcycle Museum and I think the big take away from it was just appreciating the motorcycle and how far we have come in motorized vehicles and such because of these things. It is definitely an exhibit for someone who like motorcycles and wants to admire them, not so much a history lesson though there was plenty of cool history to learn there.

Janet Echelman's colorful fiber and lighting installation examines the complex interconnections between human beings and our physical world, and reveals the artist's fascination with the measurement of time. The volumetric form suspended from the ceiling of the Renwick Gallery's Grand Salon is inspired by the data recorded March 11, 2011, following the Tohoku earthquake and tsunami that rippled across the Pacific Ocean toward Japan. The geologic event was so powerful it shifted the earth on its axis and shortened the day by 1.8 millionths of a second, lending this work its title. Echelman's knotted meditation contrasts the forces we can understand and control with those we cannot, and the concerns of our daily existence with larger cycles of time. Dynamically-changing lighting casts projected shadow drawings in vivid colors that move from wall to wall, enticing viewers to lie down on the carpet and contemplate the work.

The Herbert Hoover Presidential Library and Museum

Public Service

Herbert Hoover was raised a Quaker, although as an adult he rarely attended Meetings. He held fast the Quaker tenets: the power of the individual, the importance of freedom, and the value of charity. Hoover's beliefs were also shaped by his training as an engineer-that scientific expertise properly employed leads to human progress. He strongly believed in public service.

By 1914 Hoover yearned for more than wealth. When the U.S. Consul General in London asked him to organize the evacuation of 120,000 Americans who were stranded in Europe, Hoover was provided with an opportunity for public service.

Commission for Relief in Belgium

When World War I broke out in August 1914, Germany invaded the neutral country of Belgium, hoping to quickly overrun France. By October 1914, food supplies in Belgium were nearly exhausted. The American ambassadors to Belgium and Great Britain persuaded the British to allow the importation of food under American supervision on the condition that none of it would go to Germany or the German army in Belgium. They promised the Germans that the distribution would not be used to aid the Allies or to spy on the German army. Herbert Hoover was asked to lead the project, which came to be called the Commission for Relief in Belgium, (CRB).

In order to distribute food equitably and to prevent the growth of the black market, the CRB collected and rationed all locally grown food along with the imported supplies. By mid-November, food supplies reached all parts of occupied Belgium, and there was no catastrophic famine from that point forward, though rations for all were strictly limited for the duration. Herbert Hoover gained worldwide fame as the "Great Humanitarian" for creating an unprecedented organization that fed 10 million civilians for five years in the midst of a war zone.

U.S. Food Administration

In 1917, after the United States entered the war, Hoover was named to head the U.S. Food Administration. Hoover was the right man for the job, which guided the effort to conserve resources and supplies and to feed America's European allies. Hoover became a household name-"to Hooverize" meant to economize on food. Americans began observing "Meatless Mondays" and "Wheatless Wednesdays" and planting War Gardens. Within a year, the United States had doubled its food shipments to Europe. After the Armistice was signed in November 1918, President Wilson appointed Hoover to head the European Relief and Rehabilitation Administration. Hoover was able to channel 34 million tons of American food, clothing and supplies to war-torn Europe.

The National Museum of Natural History: Eternal Life in Ancient Egypt

from my essay: “Eternal Life in Ancient Egypt”  focuses on the civilization’s conception of death and the afterlife. The goal of this exhibition is to portray the processes involved in mummification and teach visitors about Ancient Egyptian religion and rituals surrounding death. The big idea is that Ancient Egyptians believed in life after death, which they spent their lives preparing for.

Exhibit: The Great Inka Road: Engineering an Empire
What was the Exhibits Overall Big Idea Message? The Master Homepage basically has a Big Idea Thesis Statement broken up into 3 Advertisement Quotes Spaced distantly apart, written in Advertising Language to create a sense of mystery to follow one after the other in a trail of bread crumbs to lead to the door. 1.“Journey With US as We Explore the Wonders of the Qhapaq ñan, The Inka Road”. 2.“The whole road is of one design...made by hand and breaking through mountain chains and hillsides…it is one of the greatest constructions the world has ever seen-Miguel de Estete, Noticia del Peru, 1535”. 3.“Learn more about the Great Inka Road”. I would call the 3 together a less clear or concrete Big Idea Thesis Statement. Big Idea Thesis Statements Although needing to be concrete can allow for room for certain wording to imply & leave a sense of mystery to draw in the audience’s curiosity without giving the whole shebang away. Because the Audience might already know too much & feel bored & unattracted. However, this style of Big Idea Thesis Statement Writing is Much harder to write, & heavily weights on Marketing.
