This is Joaquin's interpretation of Angry Birds, in Duplos. The yellow triangle is the Yellow Bird sitting on the slingshot, with the blue bird, the red bird, and the black bomb bird ready to take their turn. And of course the structure on the right hand side is a pig inside a house of wood, stone and glass. Notice one of the blocks fortuitously has a picture of eggs on it, representing the Angry Bird eggs stolen by the pigs. There's also a movie that goes along with this, but as it's quite long it is unavailable for viewing. Joaquin is somewhat obsessed with Angry Birds as you can see, but it's been quite amusing actually because he's basically using it as a theme for various mediums. He draws (both manually and on the computer) complicated and numerous Angry Bird pictures, writes about Angry Birds and now builds Angry Bird models! He makes up Angry Bird games of tag and gets excited over Angry Bird shirts and stuffed animals. He's actually experiencing a sort of renaissance - enjoying so many different activites - as long as he can relate it to Angry Birds. He spends more time inventing new Angry Birds then he does actually playing the game. Since we've never been obsessed with Cars or Spiderman or anything, I guess this is the Joaquin equivalent!
