Re: Honoring Scientists and Engineers with Art

There is an entire art exhibit right now at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex by student artists. I haven't really gotten the chance to browse around, but i bet there are a bunch of young artists that would like to be a part of this.

This doesn't have to do with the art that was done by the Pink team? Or is it something else? If it's something else, could you find out more about it for me? (you know you love me Barry...) Just some contact information would be great. I have been trying to get in contact with Sheryl Bergstrom, who was in charge of launching the rovers, but I haven't been able to talk to her yet. If you don't know anything more about it, I can probably ask her once I get ahold of her.

Thanks Barry!

There's a story about this in today's Waterbury Republican-American. There's also photos of the interior of the former Whiting Mills factory and of Griesedieck.

Newman's Own Foundation has pledged $200k towards this project and will go towards the renovation of the defunct Winsted, CT factory where the mural will be displayed. They're hoping this will be a large tourism draw* and earn national recognition.

The story isn't on the Rep-Am's website as of right now. There's also no mention of Jaine either. If my scanner was working (I need to get a new one) I would scan the article and attach it.


*(I know only the CT folks will get this,
but you can see I was careful not to use the words "Winsted" and "tourism" in the same sentence

Re: Honoring Scientists and Engineers with Art

418 is enjoying the process. Meeting with people who work closely with the rovers is so cool. We were in the department of Atmospheric Sciences at A&M College Station last week. A side trip was a tour of the building, including the observation deck where they study different weather phenomenon. In Texas, if you don't like the weather, just wait a minute, it will change.

We are hoping to have our art project ready for ship before the Christmas holidays arrive. That's the plan anyway. Good stuff, this.
Jane

The plan changed to May '07. The team has finished the project and I've promised to post a photo in the thread. It's been raining all weekend and hasn't cooperated with the promise. When I post the photo, I'll also give a very brief summary of what we did and how the process went. Briefly, it has been a great experience for the members of the team who participated. And the cool thing is, we are shipping a sculpture that is a result of a partnership in our school with the art department and a visit with a professor at Texas A&M - out east for the mural.

Re: Honoring Scientists and Engineers with Art

Ok, so this is a wire sculpture of a dust devil.
http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2...dustdevils.htm
Our team met with Dr. Mark T. Lemmon at Texas A&M, College Station, to discuss Mars dust and how it affects the Mars rovers. From that lecture/discussion the team came up with how they best wanted to portray their time spent with Dr. Lemmon. It developed into the dust devil - a sculpture shape that will make a nice addition to the American Mural Project, we hope. A small group of LASA Robotics team members and art students who joined the team for this project, traveled to A&M and then made the project decisions together. One of the art students worked closely with our lead teacher, Mr. Bertucci (shown in the photo), along with our art teacher, Mr. Newman. The sculpture was constructed in the shop. The project was introduced to the team last June after I read Jaine's post and it was finished this past week. We met with Dr. Lemmon in late fall after school had started and waited until we were finished with our competition seasons (we also compete during the fall semester in BEST) to complete the sculpture. It is a worthwhile project and I would encourage all of you to read Jaine's original post, discuss it with your teams, and contribute to Ellen Griesedieck's American Mural Project.

Jane

Hey mrs. p -
If you are talking to me, I would love to share the experience. Ellen and Jaine have asked me to put together a how-to summary that includes some of the roadblocks we ran into. I would be happy to help in any way.

Re: Honoring Scientists and Engineers with Art

Just letting everybody know... there was a recent article in the New York Times about Ellen and the American Mural Project. I wanted to share it with you, so here it is!

"A Mural that Redefines the Word 'Big'" - New York Times

Also, as sort of a general update - I am once again working for Ellen this summer on the project. Things have indeed moved along a lot slower than anticipated. Part of the reason is that I wasn't able to work here after I went to school. However, we have quite a few projects slated for this coming fall!

As Marion mentioned, Team 233 will be working with the NASA Kennedy Space Center launch crew on the project. Team 1011 should be meeting up with Dr. Peter Smith from Arizona State University in the fall. The Deep Space Network will be pairing with a team from Lancaster, California. Team 1732 (John and Sue Wanninger's team) have met with Dr. Mike Wolff from the Space Science Institute in Wisconsin. Team 1917 is making arrangements to work with a geologist from the USGS who worked on the Microscopic Imager. Recently, Ellen made a trip out to JPL - recieving appropriate permissions from NASA and discussing the arrangement of a large scale project there. Overall, some very exciting news!
