Physical Webbing: In the movies


In the latest Sherlock Holmes movie, there is a scene where Sherlock has taken over Watson's office.  The walls are covered in newspaper clippings, drawings, photos, and scraps of paper- all connected by red string creating a maze (or web) all directly linked to Moriarty, as seen in the photo at this link:  Sherlock Holmes 2

Physical Webbing can use any type of Participatory Manipulative (in this case string and the auxiliary cards, photos, and newspaper clippings) to create a web of information that can then be used with which to "think", organise, or solve.
