genius!

Went along to the Victoria and Albert Museum yesterday to see the Leonardo da Vinci exhibition. It was a collection of his drawings and diagrams (many of which are owned by the Queen). Unfortunately it was the second to last day of the exhibtion and after a long wait to get inside, it was really crowded and difficult to see anything! There were some excellent animated drawings projected on to the walls and showed different perspectives of buildings and machinery in action. Rule for next time - go along earlier!

In the courtyard there's an excellent installation, 'Volume', which is a collection of poles with moving lights and music. You can walk around the poles and get up close. The photo doesn't really do it justice - check out the video below!
