Today we made history! We were the first in Alberta to capture sound from the 17th Ave construction and visually record it. The students gathered various materials from around the school- grass/dirt/rocks/leaves ect and then placed them on water-colour paper that had been coated with a photo sensative chemical. Underneath the paper was a speaker that vibrated the sound the students had collected from the construction and produced a cymatic image. The paper was then rinsed off with water until the water was clear. The more images are going to be framed and put in various office buildings in Calgary and be part of different festivals. Their final resting place will be here at the school.
We are SO lucky to be able to be apart of this whole experience and for the students to be able to explore their horizons and be able to think and see the world around them in a different way. Thank- you Ashley!
