Missionaries and Cannibals Problem

As part of developing problem solving skills, our class was asked to solve the missionary and cannibals theory. The theory/problem consists of three missionaries and three cannibals which must cross a river using a boat which can carry at the very most two people, under the constraint that, for both banks, if there are missionaries present on the bank, they cannot be outnumbered by cannibals (if they were, the cannibals would eat the missionaries.) The boat cannot cross the river by itself with no people on board.

Welcome - New Blog

Hello and welcome, this is my new blog set up as part of a certificate 4 interactive digital media course at an institution in Australia. Each week, images, websites, projects, thoughts etc. that are inspirational and are worth looking at will be uploaded in the hope to generate new ideas relating to multimedia and the design field.
I will include any current work/assignments that are set by my institution so that all ideas put forth will be considered.
As set out by the teacher, our class was asked to go out and take photographs of objects or surrounding that will best reflect each letter of the alphabet. By conducting this, a persons immediate surroundings become more prominent and influential in generating new design ideas.
In the following days/weeks, the alphabet photographs will be uploaded to this page as a podcast with the help of Garage Band software complete with background music.
