\"The Flow\"

\"7 Incredible Kinetic Sculptures\"

","steps","

Engage – 5 minutes:
- Play \"The Flow.\"
- Ask students to move in a way that matches the sound; changing their movement when the sound changes. Continue until the music stops.
- Direct students into groups of 3 or 4.
- Say, “The sound had an impact on you the person. It led you to move a little differently, but it didn’t change you - it only modified your movement. This time, I want you to move in a way that has nothing to do with the sounds you hear.”
- Play \"The Flow.\"
- Say, “It’s impossible for humans to disconnect from the environment. The sounds, sights, smells, emotions, etc. - our bodies and minds will always be aware of them and they will have an impact on what we do, say and feel. This is true of jazz musicians. When they play, the energy in the room - the other musicians, the audience, the space - will have an impact on what and how they play. We see this abstract concept come to life in Kinetic Sculptures.”
Explore I - 10 minutes:
- Show \"7 Kinetic Sculptures video.\"
- Prompt students to describe what they are seeing.
- Clarify and confirm that Kinetic Sculptures are built to move with the wind or change with sound, what’s happening in the environment affects their movement.
- Say, “Our job today is to create a Kinetic Sculpture that represents the idea of the environment affecting a jazz musician. You’ll start by building your base shape, deciding how air will impact the sculpture. Then, as you build, play around with construction, so when the air hits the shape, it morphs into a new shape. Bonus points if your shapes are related to music.”
- Determine whether students will work alone, pairs, or in groups.
- Distribute paper and pencil. Prompt students to sketch their ideas.
Extend II - 40 minutes:
- Students should build.
- Encourage students to test their design as they build. They should adjust as needed.
Reflect - 5 minutes:
- Have each student, or group, show and explain their sculpture to their partner.
- Gather all students,
Outcomes to look for:
- Students construct a sculpture that holds a shape when still and morphs into a new shape when air is applied.
- Students test and revise their sculpture as needed.
