<p>Feel free to correct me or add to this.</p>

<p>@tlstoqur7 wasnt the silicon chip one small/functional?</p>

<p>Haha am I only person who thinks that pulling this all together was an accomplishment?</p>

<p>99gleb - Throughout the thread it has become fairly clear that the ones on this list are not experimental. I believe something people were calling “green chem” and “Venice” were experimentals.</p>

<p>@abcdef - But we only have like half of it haha. But yeah, the first time I saw one of these threads it was pretty impressive. Edit: Then again it seems we have over 50… Wow I haven’t seen this complete of a list before.</p>

<p>okay so gandhi and the one about tattoos were definitely experimental; i didn’t have either of them. what about the venice one? i had that one but no one has talked about it really.</p>

<p>im kinda iffy about the cave painting questions => im just gonna clarify some things and see if people are agreeing with me about this:</p>

<p>Cave Paintings Passage

  • Credibility (CORRECT)
  • Aesthetic power (CORRECT)
  • Beauty is eternal: reverent (CORRECT)
  • Playfully careless? (CORRECT)
  • Sympathetic (I belive its CORRECT and it seems that the majority believes so)
  • General agreement? (another controversial one, but i think its CORRECT)
  • evocative and moving < (should be EVOCATIVE AND MOVING)
  • Offer a proposal (I DONT REMEMBER THIS CAN SOMEONE GIVE ME A CLUE)
  • Accessibility of the paintings (ALSO DONT REMEMBER)
  • gifted artists of the Paleolithic period (CORRECT)
  • People view the paintings like art of today (DONT REMEMBER)
  • “EARLY ATTEMPTS BY ACCOMPLISHED ARTISTS??”</p>

<p>@Dizzying
same i had the venice one
i’m pretty sure that’s the experimental one</p>

<p>did u guys already answer the one that was about the 3 quoted words like “looK”</p>

<p>CR is my Achilles heel… I seem to have done fair this time around.</p>

<p>@Dizzying
can i just ask you what you got for that?</p>

<p>all i can remember for my answers were</p>

<p>weather
frustrated</p>

<p>sauternety, i agree with all the ones that you marked correct, but i don’t remember the evocative question. what was it? i don’t remember all of the same ones as you lol.</p>

<p>I think accessibility of the paintings is wrong (I remember eliminating it), same goes for the view the paintings like art of today and early attempts by accomplished artists. Maybe those were incorrect answers to some of the first, confirmed answers?</p>

<p>Does anyone remember anything about the gifted artists of the paleolithic period one?</p>

<p>god I hate CR…lucky to get above 600 ever. LoL.</p>

<p>It doesn’t help me, since all the ones I had (notably 4 CR sections) have been listed as “not experimental.”</p>

<p>@concretpencil94</p>

<p>yes that had something to do with similar vision of history or something</p>

<p>Can anyone HELP me with those questions below?
I have no clue!!!
what were the questions? </p>

<ul>
<li>Offer a proposal?</li>
<li>People view the paintings as they view art today?</li>
<li>Gifted artists of the Paleolithic period?</li>
<li>A repeated artistic technique?</li>
</ul>

<p>All the ones on the consolidated list are from 3 sections (I had them all and a writing experimental).</p>
