At Casey Elementary School on Camp Casey Jan. 14, students and parents take part in the school's second annual Math Madness workshop, which aimed to build math proficiency by using games and other activities to make the subject enjoyable for youngsters. In one of those activities, for example, competing groups had to use 20 strands of uncooked spaghetti and about a yard of masking tape to create the tallest possible structure that would support a marshmallow for at least 30 seconds without collapsing. - U.S. Army photo by Pfc.

This week was my birthday. In turning over a new year I did a little reflecting on three things I learned by following my dream (of being a full-time photographer...) More on the blog: www.theukmama.com/2013/05/three-things-about-following-yo...
Pairs of golden ceremonial scissors used to cut the ribbon to Sokcho's new rodeo street.
These were fascinating but the sheen on them with the night lights, people in the way and the vintage prime lens (Helios 44-2) made focusing very difficult. Nevertheless, a satisfactory and unusual image.

We spend an afternoon making magical mushroom lights in our garden with young Theodore Carman, one of my art students, his mother Isabelle and my friend Jean.
In our first session, we created the mushroom stems and domes, as well as the LED lights for a dozen mushrooms. We made them by soldering surface-mounted LEDs and resistors to a stiff wire, mixing watercolor with clear silicon, shaping the stems and domes with saran wrap.
We got the first mushroom to light up at the end of the day, and it looked truly magical!
In our next session, we will assemble all these parts, drill holes in a wooden log and attach the mushrooms to it, soldering all the wires to a holder with three AA batteries.
If you like, you can easily make your own by following the instructions in this fine video:

It takes about 6 hours to make these mushrooms over two sessions, but the results make it all worthwhile.
For months, Theodore kept asking if we could make these mushrooms during our maker art classes at the Lycée, but I thought this would be too hard for some of the younger kids in our course. So I offered to have him come to our home when the course ended, so we could fulfill his dream in a smaller group.
Making art with friends is such a pleasant experience. I think creative collaborations like these are good for society, and should be encouraged more.
