stirling Uni trip

Yesterday we attended a trip to Stirling  university where we went to a lecture by Paul Thomson On the digital age and people that were born digital which is after the year 1980 the lecture i thought was pretty interesting because i found out things that i didnt know such as everyone is a digital consumer. I also learned about the App Laya which lets you take pictures of a painting or a building and it will give a huge amount of information on the subject.
We then got a trip around the Uni and some of the paintings. I also enjoyed the facilities in Stirling especially the new block such as the library  which had 11 million spent on it also the new area .
Also on the trip we learned about the macrobert centre which we took a trip around we seen some work of different artists in the centre is a centre for artists such as music and also paintings. My Favourite painting at the art centre was a painting a willie roger called 'wee hangover' . we also learned about the puppet animation festival . In the university there was also a travel agents a pharmacy a news agents and also a food court. the library was also pretty cool as it had three levels a toilet on every level and the book shelves were movable. We also talked about going  to the puppet animation festival which is going to be held in the macrobert centre.
