Wednesday, June 18, 2014. L: The Big Questions. R: A student details found evidence. One of our Spring 2014 Art Brains. It was so fun to watch them hatch new ideas about clues and suspects, all for totally PG mysteries of their own invention. Here are some snaps of some of the reports, photos, and other evidence gathered in the files. Elementary (school), my dear Watson. Okay, "Ded pepl" might not be totally PG. That one slipped by me! This is cupcake frosting, not blood! It's a cupcake caper.

http://makeslashbelieve.blogspot.com/2011/10/shadow-machines.html

Tuesday, October 25, 2011. When writing the Fall ART BRAINS curriculum, I was asked to. Consider tying in the Data Fields. Exhibition, which coincides with the Fall session of the camp at Artisphere. It's an excellent show, but I honestly wasn't overly excited about incorporating it into the camp at first, as it's highly technical with a lot of auditory elements (very cool, but not my field of expertise, per se. Everyone was pretty stoked on this project. It was interesting to see the kids thinking a...

Using drawings, cutouts, cardboard, and paper, kids created dioramas of imagined landscapes that were photographed and projected large-scale onto the wall. They then had a chance to be part of the worlds they created, and were photographed within their scenery. Hank on his alien planet.
