Title: Music and the Universe
Teacher and organizer: Barbara Nueske-Perez
Dream Theme: Science / Space
Materials & techniques used: Acrylic paint
Chuck Year sent us a video; we watched the moon landings, researched the Saturn 5 rocket, used iPads, listened to music and discussed research at ASU visiting their sites. We drew in sketch pads and on canvas panels. We painted in acrylics.
What is your art about? Celebrating how the planets inspire music.
We chose science and specifically those associated with flight and space. We began with Chuck Yeager who broke the sound barrier in the x-1 rocket. Setting records in both dropped flight and standing/landing flight. We moved to Jack Ridley his engineer who designed the stabilizer that allowed the X-1 and all subsequent air planes that are supersonic, to go mach 1 +. Jackie Cochran first woman who broke the sound barrier seemed logical as she did it in an F86 with Yeager flying on her wing. Cochran was a woman with many firsts in flight; many of her records still stand.
She was instrumental in WWII helping move planes and cargo for the military. She was responsible for training over 1000 women to fly. She was the first woman who flew a B29 bomber over the atlantic. She was co-designer for the Oxygen mask that pilots still use, and was the first to wear it at 20,000 feet. Cochran helped Yeager get his congressional medal of honor. They shared many awards. Neil Armstrong, flew with Yeager as a test pilot. We honored Neil with a 4x4 as well for being the first man on the moon. Sally Ride was a logical choice as the first woman astronaut. Alcatraz Island was selected as TEXAS tried to buy the island when Neil walked on the Moon....so we depicted the almost apollo museum that would have been located there.
We then moved to current science and space with showing what we used today from NASA's developments experiments in everyday life and medicine. We then looked to ASU and what our scientists are doing in space or on earth looking at space. Paul Davies work with are we alone in the universe was depicted. The mars curiosity rover and the scientists who work with it here in Arizona were next with an image of the rover. We looked at what happens when orbits decay and planets colloid. Newly discovered spiral lava flows by an ASU grad student were depicted. Two sets of visions of planet life formation and what is needed for life were created.
And the inspiration of the stars and our solar system as a source for music was shown by instruments and the solar system together celebrating Host's the planets concerto.
Did your group enjoy working on this project?
We had a wonderful time researching, exploring science and art. We explored plane design, the careers in art and science needed to create planes, rockets and the people who helped us get to space. We discussed the achievements of women in science and our one group of almost all girls clear were influenced by the women we chose to work with. Having several people work on one panel is always a cool experience. Collaboration in drawing and giving up ownership to let someone else paint what you drew is a great learning event. Many had never seen the moon landing.
Respect for each person's work is clearly a byproduct. When one stands back and sees the whole - finished - it is impressive to know you were a part of it. The art room became a science lab and that was awesome.
Do you have ideas for another project? 3 D paper sculpture construction origami
Participants: Director: Barbara Nueske-Perez/ visual art visual literacy educator, entire student body 5-8 grades some 130 students. 15 high school students 9-12th grade.
Specific students who worked on this artwork? Madeline, Jackson, Josiah, Tyler, Lauren, Gavin, Victoria, Will, Ethan, Hannah, Anthony, Jane, Jonathan, Nicholson, Mikabella, Sophia, Caleb, Rylan, Nicholas, and Elliana.
How can I make a difference?
In 2008, a group of educators and artists formed the International Fiber Collaborative (IFC) a non-profit organization with a mission to create deeper learning experiences through art, collaboration, and cross-curricular programming for individuals and their communities.
IFC’s current initiative, The Dream Rocket Project, started in 2009 has exhibited submissions in over 105 venues; in 2014 submissions will be connected side by side to wrap a 363’ Saturn V Moon Rocket replica at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville, AL (48’ taller than the Statue of Liberty).
With every artwork received a student has had to ask; what is my dream for my future, and the future of my community and our world? How can students across our nation with many skills collaborate to make a difference? How can creativity and other subjects such as space, technology, science, and leadership inspire innovation?

Title: LAVA Flow on Mars – Spirals
Teacher and organizer: Barbara Nueske-Perez
Dream Theme: Science
Materials & techniques used: Acrylic paint
Chuck Year sent us a video; we watched the moon landings, researched the Saturn 5 rocket, used iPads, listened to music and discussed research at ASU visiting their sites. We drew in sketch pads and on canvas panels. We painted in acrylics.
What is your art about? New Discover by ASU GRAD Student of Spiral lava flows on Mars.
We chose science and specifically those associated with flight and space. We began with Chuck Yeager who broke the sound barrier in the x-1 rocket. Setting records in both dropped flight and standing/landing flight. We moved to Jack Ridley his engineer who designed the stabilizer that allowed the X-1 and all subsequent air planes that are supersonic, to go mach 1 +. Jackie Cochran first woman who broke the sound barrier seemed logical as she did it in an F86 with Yeager flying on her wing. Cochran was a woman with many firsts in flight; many of her records still stand.
She was instrumental in WWII helping move planes and cargo for the military. She was responsible for training over 1000 women to fly. She was the first woman who flew a B29 bomber over the atlantic. She was co-designer for the Oxygen mask that pilots still use, and was the first to wear it at 20,000 feet. Cochran helped Yeager get his congressional medal of honor. They shared many awards. Neil Armstrong, flew with Yeager as a test pilot. We honored Neil with a 4x4 as well for being the first man on the moon. Sally Ride was a logical choice as the first woman astronaut. Alcatraz Island was selected as TEXAS tried to buy the island when Neil walked on the Moon....so we depicted the almost apollo museum that would have been located there.
We then moved to current science and space with showing what we used today from NASA's developments experiments in everyday life and medicine. We then looked to ASU and what our scientists are doing in space or on earth looking at space. Paul Davies work with are we alone in the universe was depicted. The mars curiosity rover and the scientists who work with it here in Arizona were next with an image of the rover. We looked at what happens when orbits decay and planets colloid. Newly discovered spiral lava flows by an ASU grad student were depicted. Two sets of visions of planet life formation and what is needed for life were created.
And the inspiration of the stars and our solar system as a source for music was shown by instruments and the solar system together celebrating Host's the planets concerto.
Did your group enjoy working on this project?
We had a wonderful time researching, exploring science and art. We explored plane design, the careers in art and science needed to create planes, rockets and the people who helped us get to space. We discussed the achievements of women in science and our one group of almost all girls clear were influenced by the women we chose to work with. Having several people work on one panel is always a cool experience. Collaboration in drawing and giving up ownership to let someone else paint what you drew is a great learning event. Many had never seen the moon landing.
Respect for each person's work is clearly a byproduct. When one stands back and sees the whole - finished - it is impressive to know you were a part of it. The art room became a science lab and that was awesome.
Do you have ideas for another project? 3 D paper sculpture construction origami
Participants: Director: Barbara Nueske-Perez/ visual art visual literacy educator, entire student body 5-8 grades some 130 students. 15 high school students 9-12th grade.
How can I make a difference?
In 2008, a group of educators and artists formed the International Fiber Collaborative (IFC) a non-profit organization with a mission to create deeper learning experiences through art, collaboration, and cross-curricular programming for individuals and their communities.
IFC’s current initiative, The Dream Rocket Project, started in 2009 has exhibited submissions in over 105 venues; in 2014 submissions will be connected side by side to wrap a 363’ Saturn V Moon Rocket replica at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville, AL (48’ taller than the Statue of Liberty).
With every artwork received a student has had to ask; what is my dream for my future, and the future of my community and our world? How can students across our nation with many skills collaborate to make a difference? How can creativity and other subjects such as space, technology, science, and leadership inspire innovation? How can I make a difference?

I usually hate the way fresh tattoos look when they're photographed (shiny and dark), but what the hell...here it is! My first tattoo. I'll have better pics up soon enough...
If you push a macro too far past telecentric, you get a pericentric lens, where the perspective is inverted: farther objects appear larger than closer objects.
It leads to weird optical effects, like being able to see five sides of a die at once.
No photoshop magic here. This is essentially straight from the camera: just a resize to something small enough to upload in tolerable time.
So over the weekend, I was able to purchase a Mezco One:12 Captain Marvel from a fellow collector who was underogoing from downsizing.
I won't beat around the bush - I might be Mezco's worst nightmare. I don't buy many of these, and the ones I pick up don't generally blow the mind of any collector, even hardcore Mezco collectors. But, this is Captain Marvel, and I knew she came with some fun accessories - that coupled with a great price made this purchase a no brainer.
This toy is of course based on the Brie Larson version of the character, and was released not that long ago.. maybe Summer 2020. I just remember it being quite delayed. The actual contents of the box are quite impressive for the $80 USD they asked for (I'll get back to this), especially when all the other figures were about $80 as well.
You get the figure, three total portaits (unhelmeted head, helmeted head, Binary mode helmeted head), eight additional hands, two Photon energy effects for the closed fists, two large Photon fist effects, two Photon Beam effects, Goose, Tesseract, Pager, a leather jacket, and the standard Mezco stand with arm.
In terms of contents, I believe there's more in the Mezco kit than even the Deluxe Hot Toys release, but naturally the quality is much better over in sixth scale land, including the kick ass battery powered light effects.
It's weird, but Captain Marvel was better, the same, and worse at the same time than the typical female Mezco release. You remember how I said it was a good bargain at $80? Well, I suspect that somebody at Mezco crunched some numbers, and realized that yes, it was a great deal. So great, that they probably wouldn't make their intended profit margin at the presale price.
You'll notice from the side-by-side photo next to the Figuarts, Mezco Hela, and Mezco Kitana that Captain Marvel is small. Almost like they did some cost cutting as this would reduce the cost of the bodies, suits, and possibly the jacket. Based on solicitation photos, this was planned from the start, and it's honestly tough to tell without another figure next to her. She always felt like she gave off dwarf vibes, so at least this verifies it.
For those interested, Cate Blanchett is about 5 ft. 8 inches, and Brie Larson is about 5 ft. 6 inches... clearly somebodies math is off and based on looks I'd definitely put my money on Larson being too short.
Also, you'll notice all three figures that can't put their arms at their sides? All Mezco figures.
From an outfit perspective, Captain Marvel is leagues better than the one that came with Hela. Hela is effectively wearing a black body sock with some shiny green trim. The Captain Marvel outfit has more sections where the texture is replicated by synthetic leather, in addition to the gold trim. Furthermore, even the body sock parts have a sheen to them, as opposed to the Performing Arts costume that Hela has. The leather jack has some good tailor work, though the decals might need a bit of resticking depending on your luck.
The helmeted sculpts look pretty good, but the Brie Larson sculpt? It's not as bad as Gal Gadot, but it's nowhere near as good as the Cate Blanchett that came with the Hela figure. It's passable, but due to its looks and overall large size (which makes the squatness of the body even worse) I stick with the helmeted looks.
From an articulation perspective, no surprises whatsoever. Hela had already disappointed me so I was prepared. For the most part, it's alright, as the suit at least lets you use pretty all the body is capable of. You get ankles, single jointed knees, hips with thigh swivel, minor waist swivel combined with slight ab crunch and ability to bend backwards, mid torso joint, standard shoulders, single jointed elbows, wrists, neck, and head.
For whatever reason, the feet are designed such that the socket is on the body, as opposed to the foot. This design limits the range of motion the foot has, which is why all her lunging poses don't look all that great. The rigidness of the shoulders has been, and continues to be, a major pain because you can't bring the arms together closer which combined with the single jointed elbows really limits what you can do with her upper body. The good news is, however, that overall you're still going to get more articulation out of this figure than the Hot Toys release.
Paint work for the most part is pretty good. To my eyes, the flesh coloured parts are just the base plastic. Everything else for Captain Marvel is pretty sharp, including the paint work on the pager and the minute details on her outfit. Now Goose, on the other hand.. body is great but those eyes are just messed up. It's not just the one in my hand either - even the prototype looks walleyed.
Build quality is again a non-issue. The body feels solid with strong joints, and with a little luck breaking pegs is not going to be an issue. As mentioned, the uniform and leather coat are well tailored and stitched. The translucent energy effects are also nicely done, with no rough finishes or fragile bits. All pieces come together nicely.
So there you have it - The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. Overall though, the Mezco figure is probably the best overall option for a Captain Marvel. It's alright levels of articulation wrapped up in a pretty good outfit and suite of accessories.
That brings my Mezco journey to an end for now. There's rumours that Mezco is making a Black Widow for the movie, and should that actually become a reality it will probably be the next time I revisit this line.
Until next time.
