the industrialization and continues building can have the ability to take away some of natures treasures.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3618\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3618\" style=\"width: 503px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMG_1630.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-3618\" src=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMG_1630-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"city emerges\" width=\"503\" height=\"377\" srcset=\"https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMG_1630-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMG_1630-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMG_1630-624x467.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 503px) 100vw, 503px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3618\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">city emerges<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>normans seven steps:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>forming the goal:\u00a0 the user is interested in the falling leaves and wants to interact.<\/li>\n<li>forming the intention:\u00a0 the user will interact and the longer they interact the more they experience<\/li>\n<li>specify the action:\u00a0 the user will approach the interactive either because they see others using it, or they are simply interested in it.\u00a0 As soon as they are within the range of the motion sense, they will see how they can interact with it.<\/li>\n<li>execute the action:\u00a0 the user will play with the interactive;
