Abstract:


    The idea of insect project is come from the current news in Hong Kong in 2005. There is a news reported about worms (red blood worms) was discovered in the public swimming pool. In the first beginning, the Hong Kong Government denied that it is their problem. They suspected that there might be some people bought the worms into the swimming pool. Few weeks after, a numerous public swimming pools were reported finding worms. And the Government decided to close the swimming pool and the life guard start to clean the worms, eventually, the more they clean, the more worms had been discovered. I personally like swimming a lot and found this news is so amazing. Let’s imagine, while we are swimming, u see thousand of different kind of worm are chasing u inside the sea/pool. And, the faster u swim, the more they are coming out. In order to stop there, u need to stay alone, not even move a bit. The more you are not moving, the more they will be leaving. It is completely anti our normal physical experience. Normally, we try to use our hand or body to remove the worms / insect immediately from our body.
