This workshop focused on the work we had done at the Hancock Museum, we had to physically explore the differences in movements in some animals, we looked at the differences in the spine in fish and apes. In this workshop we had physically take on the different spinal positions of these animals. This was quite tricky as the spine is fixed and not easily manipulated to imitate other animal's spines. We were given a list of different apes and asked to portray one of them, we chose a gorilla, then we had to become this animal, and the other groups had to guess who we were trying to show. We could tell what animals the groups were based on the position of the spines. This just goes to show how much our spine has on our movement. The spine is the 'backbone' of our body and therefore controls but also constricts some of our movements.
