Rubik's Cube

The Rubik’s Cube In A Nutshell Background Rubik’s cube is a toy puzzle designed by Ernö Rubik during the mid- 1970s. It is a cube- shaped toy consisting of smaller cube pieces, called “cubies” with 6 faces possessing contrasting colors. This rather primitive-looking phenomenon was exceptionally popular during the 1980s, and peaking 1980 and 1983 with around 200 million cubes sold worldwide. Even today sales continue to exceed 500,000 sales worldwide each year, consequently earning the title “the best-selling toy of all time”. Seen as an object of art, the Rubik’s Cube brilliance is perceived to reside in its ability to embody and symbolize the evident contrasts in the human conditions: simplicity and complexity, order and mayhem, bewilderment…

Millions of Americans struggle financially every year, and a good majority of Americans persevere, as Chris did, and end up meeting their goals and provide for their family as best they can. Muccino also incorporates symbolism in order to allow the audience to understand the theme even more clearly. The Rubik 's Cube represents Chris’s complex levels of determination and his will to find a solution. One morning as Chris and his son are eating breakfast, the news comes on and the news reporter is…

During today’s lesson in Mr. Green’s class, I learned that life is just like a Rubik’s Cube. If you continue to take the wrong turns in life you’ll end up becoming a mess. I found this lesson to be very deep because if I really think about it, I’ve made a few “wrong turns” that I still regret. If I didn’t do projects last minute and if I actually studied for tests, I would’ve gotten better grades. If I weren’t so distracted from my phone or TV, I probably would’ve reached my full potential. I…

It was Thanksgiving, I was at my grandparents house playing with my grandpa's old Rubik's Cube it was extremely hard to turn and creaked whenever you managed to turn it. This creaking bothered all my Aunts Uncles Mom and Grandma but not my grandpa after being sent to a different room I continue to work on solving the side of my favorite color, blue. Some people were impressed, especially my grandpa. After I saw how impressed my grandpa was I ran back to the bedroom I was staying in to try and…

I carry a Rubik’s Cube in my backpack. Solving it quickly is a terrific conversation starter and surprisingly impressive to girls. I’ve been asked to solve the cube on the New York City subway, at a track meet in Westchester and at a café in Paris. I usually ask people to try it first. They turn the cube over in their hands, half-heartedly they make a few moves and then sheepishly hand it back. They don’t even know where to begin. That’s exactly what it was like for me to learn how to read.…

My idea for this assignment is to use the “Architectural Origami” technique to show the relationship between the 2D & 3D patterns that appeared on the corner between two walls at the stairs way close to the first floor. The “Architectural Origami” technique is a technique that uses cutting and folding of a piece of paper to create the Architectural forms. The basic pattern that I used in this assignment are cuboid and cube. For the 3D patterns, I used a 22’’*30’’ Bristol board to make a…

RGM Reflection My Rube Goldberg Machine is the PROTOTYPE-SR213. It accomplishes the simple task of lifting a cup. When I started brainstorming about the project, I wondered what I could do and how I could do it. When I finally came up with one idea, it was already time to make up two more ideas to pass the EDP. In the building stage, after I already chose what design I wanted to build, I made a bunch of changes. For one, I got rid of the part in the middle where a toy car rolled down a…

A Rubik’s Cube was spotted on your dusty old shelf crammed with your parents’ dusty beloved books--don’t pretend like you didn’t see it with your peripheral vision--so you gave it a go. The countless finger-breaking, brain-grinding, eye-melting hours spent to just group six colours into their individual side, is the most satisfying feeling ever. This is what happened to me three years ago, and that last satisfying ‘U prime’ which lead to the first completion of a Rubik’s Cube, just made it “ma…
