One, titled “tools”, has three buttons to Yahoo Mail, the Yam blog and the Slime games corner; the other, “web shortcuts”, puts Yahoo, Sony, Baidu, MSN, Slime and Google around a round main button.

The site itself was never captured by the Internet Archive; the drives kept its Flash parts — navigation buttons, a tools panel, a rabbit, arrows, a bacteriophage — and a banner made for the school's gifted resource class. His 2011 account lists one excellence, one special excellence and one honourable mention in the Taipei class website competition from his primary school years. Classmates' photos in the banners are blurred. - Class website - Flash Sources [Open the original page ↗︎](https://cheyuwu.com/archive/class-606-website/) [原件存檔（吳哲宇舊硬碟，2026-09-30 備份） ↗︎](https://cheyuwu.com/archive/class-606-website/) [獎金獵人 PChome 新聞台（2011 年自述） ↗︎](https://mypaper.pchome.com.tw/adc_hunter/post/1322327010) Related records [→ Tool panels for the class site: Yahoo Mail, the Yam blog, the Slime games corner](https://cheyuwu.com/lab/2007/#lab-class-site-tools-2007) · Tools for the same class site (Curatorial theme) ![Title card: Save energy, cut waste — Taipei Sanxing Elementary School, Che-Yu Wu](https://cheyuwu.com/static/lab/2007/energy-saving-animation.webp) 2007-05-22 AwardChe-Yu Wu / original file 2007-05-22 · Artist record Taken from the swf file date.

His 2011 account says that in sixth grade he entered the education bureau's environmental animation competition “and only got an honourable mention”, then worked harder, and in eighth grade won his first Acer Digital Creation Award. The Flash file still plays in full. - Flash - Animation Sources [Open the original page ↗︎](https://cheyuwu.com/archive/energy-saving-animation/) [原件存檔（吳哲宇舊硬碟，2026-09-30 備份） ↗︎](https://cheyuwu.com/archive/energy-saving-animation/) [獎金獵人 PChome 新聞台（2011 年自述） ↗︎](https://mypaper.pchome.com.tw/adc_hunter/post/1322327010) Related records [→ Flash sketches from class 5-6: the earliest animations on the drives](https://cheyuwu.com/lab/2007/#lab-grade5-flash-sketches) · His first competition, a year later (Curatorial theme) 2007-04-25 Writing 2007-04-25 · Artist record Taken from the experiment video folder (0425).

It began when his father watched him make a simple instrument out of a pen and a ruler and asked him to play a song. He lined up twelve goblets, measured how much water made Do, Re and Mi, then tried soy sauce, oil, vinegar, milk, soy milk, green tea and cola, and finally jelly wax and ice. The report, a photo from it and two experiment videos are on the archive page. - Science fair - Sound Sources [Open the original page ↗︎](https://cheyuwu.com/archive/glass-music-science-fair/) [原件存檔（吳哲宇舊硬碟，2026-09-30 備份） ↗︎](https://cheyuwu.com/archive/glass-music-science-fair/) 2006 ![A frame of the skeleton animation, its speech bubble reading “welcome to class 5-6”](https://cheyuwu.com/static/lab/2007/grade5-flash-sketches.webp) 2006 PrototypeChe-Yu Wu / original file 2006 · Artist record The year is inferred from “class 5-6” in the picture (the 2005–06 school year); the file date of 24 March 2007 is when they were copied to a new computer. ### Flash sketches from class 5-6: the earliest animations on the drives In fourth grade he borrowed a copy of Flash from school and drew with it for an hour or two every evening. The earliest Flash files on his drives are these five: a skeleton, a flower, a bubble bath, a watermelon turning red and a watermelon report, all short, some a single frame. The skeleton's speech bubble says “welcome to class 5-6”, so they date from fifth grade. All five still play. - Flash - Animation Sources [Open the original page ↗︎](https://cheyuwu.com/archive/grade5-flash-sketches/) [原件存檔（吳哲宇舊硬碟，2026-09-30 備份） ↗︎](https://cheyuwu.com/archive/grade5-flash-sketches/) [獎金獵人 PChome 新聞台（2011 年自述） ↗︎](https://mypaper.pchome.com.tw/adc_hunter/post/1322327010) Related records [→ Save energy, cut waste: honourable mention in the education bureau's environmental animation competition](https://cheyuwu.com/lab/2007/#lab-energy-saving-animation) · His first competition, a year later (Curatorial theme)
