Sound Art

Part I

 

WARM UP

 

Activity 1

Class begins with music and warm up. Students are invited to get on their feet, get away from their desks and follow the professor's muscle groups - isolation warm up. 

In previous classes, we added conscious breathing at the end of the warm up,  self-affirmations,  meditation, mindfulness and relaxation techniques.


 Question 1 

How would you implement the warm up done in class so far in your future lessons?  Post your answer on Discussion Board.

INTRO TO SOUND ART

 

Sound art is an artistic discipline in which sound is utilized as a primary medium. Like many genres of contemporary artsound art may be interdisciplinary in nature, or be used in hybrid forms.

STUDENTS' WORK

Quiz 1

Installation Art, Nature Art, Naive Art (Drawing) and Collage



1. How can an installation art piece  be used to teach an academic subject?


Installation art can be used in a lesson by showing students there can be many different parts to a solution and they may not all look the same but when they come together they form something cohesive. I think this would be applicable to a government or history class. 




2. Why is nature's art a valid way of bringing attention to ecology?


It is valid because it shows how beautiful nature can be and is a reminder that we are not the only ones on this planet. 




3. Drawing enhances learning of language arts. Explain


In my experience drawing opens your mind. I started an art minor half way through college with minimum art experience prior. It showed me that there are many solutions and ways to go about things. Most times situations don’t have one answer. Life is fluid and sometimes we get stuck in a corner searching for the end all be all. Art opens the mind to creativity and thinking outside the box so my guess would be that art enhances language arts drastically by opening the mind to creativity and ideas. 




4. A collage develops several skills while allowing children to be creative. Explain.


A collage requires children to be attentive to the work since its composition is ever changing but also gives them a lot of artistic freedom. It allows them to grow confidence in expressing themselves and shows them not everything comes from an instruction book.
