Kansas students create art for Dream Rocket Project, The Associated Press
Art created by Kansas students will be among those wrapped around a 365-foot replica of the Saturn V rocket at the U.S. Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, Ala. A visiting assistant professor at Washburn University helped elementary students from Rossville and St. Mary create 550 pieces of artwork for the Dream Rocket Project. A news release from the Topeka university says the Saturn V rocket will be wrapped with more than 8,000 pieces of art in 2014. Beforehand, all submissions are being displayed in venues such as libraries, schools and museums. A show is planned at the Wamego Public Library in April.
The young artists submitting their work come from hundreds of cities across the United States and other countries. © 2012 Wichita Eagle and wire service sources. All Rights Reserved. www.kansas.com Read more here: www.kansas.com/2012/02/22/v-print/2225431/kan-students-cr...

Our Maker Art class created a Haunted House in fall 2016. In this after-school workshop at the Lycée Français, students ages 7 to 10 built a fantasy world together, with magical creatures, ghosts, witches and other spooky characters.
We combined arts and technology to bring their creations to life: each student created their own room in our haunted house, and animated their characters with motors and simple mechanisms, adding lights and sounds to tell their stories.
Students started by designing their rooms and characters, and built them in their own cardboard ‘wonderboxes.’ We then asked them to sketch up their individual visions of the Haunted House and combined them together. Children worked in teams to build some of the more complex features: a clock tower, an elevator and an animated graveyard zombie, all powered with Arduino boards.
I’m very grateful to my associate teachers for this class: Sarah Brewer and Edward Janne were amazing partners and empowered our students to create their own interactive art, helping them bring their ideas to life in a playful way that made learning more fun.
We taught this class weekly at the Lycée Français in Sausalito, with 8 school students in grades 3, 4 and 5. We met every Thursday at 3:30pm, from September 15 to December 8, 2016. Many of the materials we used in this class were prepared at Tam Makers, our makerspace in Mill Valley.

If you want you can add the back wheel. It just slides in and locks, and is removed the same way. I found it added some jitter to the back end when I had the penny ballast in.

Regarding email I received, and of my own experience visiting other people blog, I figure out a lot of people coming here may not really know who I am ;)
I often do not read blogs and only check pictures, then jumping from link too link... So, for those who read, here come some infos, on what I am / I have done / I am working on...
To illustrate this, here come some picture of my office, that I share with my wife in our nice France countryside home.

This is my little art area that is in my downstairs hall way. There is a little built in desk that I have made my special creating space for sewing, painting, jewelry making etc. I was in the middle of a painting when I took this picture, so its a bit messy.
I don't know why.. but lately I have been looking at food in a whole new light.

The Project on Prosperity and Development will host the Creating Shared Value Conference as part of its ongoing work on the role of the private sector in addressing enduring socioeconomic challenges in the world's poorest countries. Join us for a discussion on ways to maximize shared value between businesses and the often rural communities in which they operate. The conference will build on the energy generated by Nestlé's Creating Shared Value Annual 2014 report to discuss innovative ways government and civil society can work with the private sector to achieve rural development goals. This event is made possible with support from the Nestlé Corporation.

Day 2 - Travel to Spain (Barcelona) - June 2023
Museu de disseny
The design museum, which opened in 2014, houses 70,000 objects from five centuries, giving visitors a wide-ranging overview of the history of design in Catalonia and Spain. The collection comes from smaller museums of decorative arts, ceramics, textiles, fashion and graphics.
The Museu del Disseny de Barcelona is situated at the Placa de les Glories in the district of Poble Nou in the north-east of Barcelona. It was opened in 2014 and was the result of a merger of different existing museums for applied art, such as the Museum of Ceramics, the Textile Museum and the Museum of Graphic Design.
The striking building at the edge of the Placa de les Glories is right next to the Torre Agbar which can be seen from afar. This was the beginning of the redesign of a formerly cheerless traffic junction in Barcelona. The ambitious project was designed and executed by the renowned architect's office MBM from Barcelona, namely the architects Josep Martorell and Oriol Bohigas, David Mackay, Oriol Capdevila and Francesc Gual. Work began in 2009 and the building was already finished in 2013.

We create material things for the sake of art...we study the colors, the textures, the materials used, the forms, the subject...when our greatest art teacher is God Our Creator...when we have been given God-given Nature to appreciate...and when we appreciate the God-made art in nature...then eventually we yearn to protect it...rather than making material things for daily use, decorative, or self-glorification...but we take the path of Our Creator who blessed us with art for free...and in turn we learn to make material things artistically...to share and give these generously to others...then Holy Virtues of Love becomes an art...being creative in doing good deeds for others...
