This is a new age built using my cubic modules.

This is a gallery of images tied to and laid out in the arangement that matches the Periodic Table I'm planning to add group information.

I was building this to help me memorise the table that may help someone else. ;)

PS This has just been sent to Dustin it may be a while.

Great idea to make such an age! I love the associative and sometimes humerous pictures you chose.
And I got to know a few new elements I hadn't heared about yet.

I have to assume you have Drizzle loaded and have a stand alone copy or access to the UAM shard both of these have my new age loaded obviously for Drizzle you have to manualy download the age but for the UAM Shard it's allready in the Nexus.

One of the tricks to memorising any system of abstract concepts is the association of an image or an experience (usually remembered s an image) with that abstract idea.

My new age is a series of cells representing the Periodic Table of Elements written on the floor of each cell is the Symbol the Name and Element number, on on wall of each cell is an image to help me associate the element name with the location and each image also has the Element Number.

Walking around the area you can see which cells are next to each other by making some wierd combination of the two images will help you remember that arangement.

My intention is to add more information for example Grouping probably by using color and a key posted on the wall of the Hydrogen cell.

The posted images are associations I have (personal to me) for example Radon I associate with Granite when I first heard about Radon I was living in Aberdeen and some of the old Granite buildings there have an issue with Radon gas and while most are obvious some won't be.

Hassium made my day ;)


P.S.
Interesting minigame:
1.Go to Caesium.
2. With flymode go other the ceeling, and then get out of flymode.
3. When being on the ceeling, start runing in the Barium direction.
4. ???
5. Instant hurdling track :)
6. Profit?

Sorry for the misunderstanding, J'Kla. I did not check since your first post if it was in UAM. :oops: Your idea is very ingenious and the associations often very funny . I like it too ! 8-)

Too late Egon I took the Hudling track out yesterday it's not in the latest version :(

Ah! but you could allways revert to the earlier one in Drizzle :D You would end up hot foot on the trans-uranics. :o
