Roller Coasters

Art refers to a diverse range of human activities, creations, and expressions that are appealing to the senses or emotions of a human individual.

This is what I chose for my art presentation. I think that rollercoaster's are a form of art. First off every rollercoaster has it's own unique design. They either have little hills or steep hills and they can curves or several loops. Rollercoaster's are rideable sculptures that are erected out of either steel or wood. I personally prefer steel rollercoaster because they din't creek as much. There is also a lot of thought process that goes into evolving a roller coaster. First there is the brainstorming part where the architect decides on who the ride in intended for and the size of the location. For instance a rollercoaster for little kids shouldn't have a many if any loops and will be smaller in design. Once the rollercoaster is brainstormed they move into the outline phase where they draw it up on a computer software program to determine the features of the ride. Then they create the prototype to make sure that the rollercoaster is feasible and safe. Then comes the final piece which is considered the masterpiece or resolution.
