Category Archives: On Site. July 19, 2014. In early June, I packed up the remaining forty-odd cups from FLOW in a large box, loaded them in my trunk, and headed for Interlochen, Michigan. I’d been invited to spend this summer teaching ceramics at Interlochen Center for the Arts. Summer Arts Camp, and it felt right to share this project at the faculty art show. Their answers to the questions in a clipboard we had left behind in the gallery. I’ve seen the QR-coded cups around Interlochen’s camp...Soon we w...

Flow and Opportunity Cost. October 27, 2013. Oh my, what beautiful cups you have here! This brought me back to my lesson one day in AP Economics. In an economical way, nothing in our world is free. Unlimited wants with limited resources. Everything has a cost. I thought about our project, and these cups really aren’t. Yet that economic mindset remained with me. Which opportunity cost was greater? Which person gave up more? So when it comes down to it, we had to give away something of our own that we made...

https://nceca13.wordpress.com/2013/03/25/noticing-participation
Houston, Texas – March 20-23. March 25, 2013. Chris Staley tells us, “Notice what you notice.”. Lately, I’ve been noticing that I’m drawn to artwork that involves its audience. Some of my upper-level students know my story of “breaking up” with art. Or working with colleagues at PGSA and BLUR. Who are equally resistant to passive, stoic art. Anyhow, art and I are doing. Because I’m starting to seek out, make, and nudge my students towards making works that. 8216; at the NCECA Biennial. I’m deeply, ...

Symphonies in the Woods. Jul 23, 2014. The World Youth Symphony Orchestra at Interlochen Arts Camp. 8211; and everything I know tells me that what I’m hearing is good, really good, far beyond high school level good. Even a potter who quit the clarinet in sixth grade can tell that in these Michigan woods, the rituals and relationships of practice, instruction, and ensembles are producing world-class performers. Here’s the closest I’ve come. In visual art, what is our symphony? I probably shouldn’t t...
