Arts Integrated Learning Experience & Website Spring 2010
• Arts integrated Lesson Plans supporting the North Carolina Standard Courses of Study in science, math, art, computer/technology, and other subject areas as appropriate
• Unique museum/school partnership betwen SECCA, the WS/FC Public School System, and the Winston-Salem Arts Council
• Artists residencies featuring public artists whose work will be housed in the new Downtown Center for the Arts, along with other regional professionals.
• Lessons will also be supported through new media, and long distance learning.
• Students will use technology to document each lesson. The results will become the basis for an interactive educational web site. Each lesson taught previously in the classroom will become a multimedia presentation on the Web site. Teachers throughout the state can utilize the Web site as lessons that directly support the North Carolina Standard Courses of Study.
Program Components
• Educator workshop on processes and procedures involved with art in public spaces led by David Finn
• Artist residency with public artist Kyungmi Shin
• Artist residency with public artist Jimmy O’Neal
• Project based lessons during which students conceptualize and execute a work of art inspired by the artists in residence, that will be placed in a public environment
• Interactive website outlining the lesson plans developed from the educator workshops and residencies. Teachers throughout the state can utilize the website as a pre- visit guide for a trip to the Downtown Center for the Arts or as a series of stand-alone lessons. The web site will also host an active forum where teachers and students can upload still images or video of their students’ work, as well as share ideas.
Program Development
• Program will be developed collaboratively by educator teams, WS/FCS administrators, SECCA staff, Arts Council staff, and participating artists
• Educator teams will consist of 1 science and 1 art teacher from 2 different schools• Mt. Tabor High School - Taryn Kendig, Science; Alice Morley, Art• RJ Reynolds High School - Ashley Witherspoon, Science; Matt Fussell, Art
• 2 Program Development meetings in January/early February• 1 meeting for the collaborative group to meet and discuss initial program vision• 1 day-long meeting to craft lesson plans and evaluation metrics
• Lesson plans will be refined through February via email and on-line project management software
• Residencies will take place during mid-late March and early Spring (residency calendar will be established based on school calendars and artists’ availability.
• Website will be finalized by early May

Cymatics
“also known as modal phenomena, is the study of visible sound and vibration, typically on the surface of a plate, diaphragm, or membrane. Directly visualizing vibrations involves using sound to excite media often in the form of particles, pastes, and liquids.”

Why Cymatics?
• Metaphorically connect the visual experience in the lobby space to the audio-visual experiences in the theatre spaces
• Ambient audio from the theatre space will serve as the source of the cymatic paintings
• Additional audio documented throughout Winston-Salem cultural community will provide supplemental material
• Provides a rich platform for an arts-in-education residency that could potentially involve visual arts, science, math, theatre arts, and music

Why Patterns?
• Proposed installation represents the traffic patterns that flow between and connect the spaces, representing the residual and cumulative “creative energy.”
• Opportunity to study weather patterns as well as human impact on naturally occurring phenomena
• Opportunity to study growth patterns among organisms both simple and complex and their relationships
• Identifying and rendering patterns are core practices in both science, biology, and artistic processes.
