Pedagogical Factory: How We Move; How We Make a Pedagogical Sketchbook
August 4, 2007 @ 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM
Led by Meredith Haggerty and Lavie Raven, How We Move will be a workshop in movement and how it relates to social movements. The workshop leaders have been brought together by the University of Hip Hop, which has been doing movement education in the city for over 15 years. Contact haggerty@uchicago.edu for more information.
The Pedagogical Sketchbook began as an obsessive compilation of ideas and lessons, that stood in stark contrast to the typical offerings most adolescents were exposed to in their school art space. The project which now includes an audio curriculum is growing as artists, thinkers, map makers, socialites, ex students, construction workers, priests, addicts and ideologues to name only few have joined in making contributions to what will be presented as a new high school art textbook. The project will be published on demand and developed as an online resource. One copy of the project will be sent to every high school art department in Illinois. factory07@gmail.com Jim Duignan is an artist, educator and activist and drives the collaborative artist project Stockyard Institute.
