Linda really excelled at making charms with strong form and movement, too. I like that she took the charms out of the sample square format and made them taller.
Student work where they had to script and then present how to make a simple food item (such as potato salad) using only words and gestures. This may be my favorite.
In this project the students were directed to the Nobel lecture speech by Harold Pinter where he criticized the U.S. for its foreign policies. They contrasted this with a parody "roast" that the comedian Stephen Colbert gave at the press core dinner in Washington DC.

My local currency is for the Upper East Side, which is home to more museums than any other neighborhood in New York City. The currency's name is the "Mula," which is an acronym for, "Museums: our Local Asset.” The currency comes in denominations of five, ten and twenty Mula, and each museum would put its art on a set of the three denominations, yielding upwards of thirty different designs. The design of the Mula is based on the golden section, and the colors used are the three primary and three secondary colors. The three typefaces on the Mula were all created by Hofler Frere-Jones, a New York City firm.
