https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/ypck8xldeutc Imagine an alien culture lands today and starts a museum dedicated to you, your cultural beliefs and belongings. What would be displayed in this museum? en-us 2016-08-04 02:41:44 UTC 2024-04-05 12:25:21 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/ypck8xldeutc/wish/120140087 I'm from the Philippines and there are plenty of traditional things that could be displayed in a museum, but there is something that's left relatively unknown or unfamiliar. What I'm talking about is the Filipino script called "Baybayin". Unfortunately, it's a part of our culture and writing system that has been left in the past and it is not used anymore.  Some people say that the reason why this form of writing has died is probably because of colonisation. However, I haven't done enough research to confirm that. I would like to see this in a museum, hoping that I could be preserved. ]]> 2016-08-27 04:37:58 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/ypck8xldeutc/wish/120140087 https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/ypck8xldeutc/wish/120165369 I would hope that some of my books might be displayed in the museum. If I had to choose just one in would be the wonderful Jitterbug Perfume whose philosophies on love, spirituality, immortality and human nature have had some influence on the development of my understanding of my existence.......Erleichda!]]> 2016-08-28 01:02:57 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/ypck8xldeutc/wish/120165369 linubidix https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/ypck8xldeutc/wish/120186838 I'd have to imagine such a museum would at least have a corner dedicated to my late dog, Skip. Who played a pivotal part of my development from a child to a young adult. He helped teach me responsibility as well as a bond and trust in animals, his personality enriched my life, his annoyances taught me patience and discipline, and his recent passing taught me the significance of companionship and love. 
 
Next to it might be my film collection, as many of them have shaped my understanding of human nature, right from wrong and artistry.]]> 2016-08-28 17:47:06 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/ypck8xldeutc/wish/120186838 https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/ypck8xldeutc/wish/121010097 In the museum I would love to display the record collection I have happening.  It includes both my great grandma's, my grandmas, my mothers and my own vinyl so there is a pretty great variety in terms of genre, and possibly some rare pressings. Personally it holds a lot of great memories, spent with friends searching in dusty old record stores for hours as well as with my grandma looking through her own collection and her reminiscing about when she bought the vinyl/saw the artist live. ]]> 2016-09-01 05:36:31 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/ypck8xldeutc/wish/121010097 https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/ypck8xldeutc/wish/127453002 Verdict: online learning does not suit me : ) I am so late...I finally managed to make a museum of me though. I thought I would approach it in a tongue in cheek manner. For some reason, every time I upload the file, the boxes get jumbled up. This is the best result I managed to get. Sorry...]]> 2016-09-30 07:31:03 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_atkinso/ypck8xldeutc/wish/127453002
