Constructed out
of 186 'empty' Brisk cans, made so
by α over period of one year, The Amazing
Eiffel Tower was given
shape by β over a period of
just one night! The Designer hopes the Tower will be an icon of
procrastination
for years to come. This work resulted out of a casual conversation
between the
Can-Collector, α and the Designer,
β, about the possibility of
remodeling α's earthquake prone
random stack model. After this conversation, a secret plan was executed
perfectly by β which involved operations
as risky as smuggling cans out without arousing the
suspicion of the
usually skeptical theory people. Here are some of the specifications of
the
Tower:
|
Height of one
can: 12.0cm |
Height of the
tower: ≈ 168.0cm |
|
Width of one
can: 6.05cm |
We
would like to thank:
·
Brisk Lemon Ice
Tea: The world's
best drink
as claimed by α (this opinion
is α 's personal opinion and
unfortunately not endorsed by the theory lab).
·
Gorilla Glue: The world's
strongest
glue as claimed by gorilla glue.
Here is the project
