Hi Installation Class-
I am interested in working in making the giant mushrooms for our Alice in Wonderland extravaganza. I think it would be a lot of fun and we can incorporate new ideas into the project (homeless man sleeping underneath the mushrooms, etc.) once it's fabricated. I was thinking of drawing up a proposal so we could get some funding from Dean White, but if there are others in the class that are interested in the mushroom project then let's collaborate and divide up the proposal tasks. One person could draw the mushrooms and give an idea of the materials we need. Another could take the idea of materials and devise a tentative budget. Another person/persons could fill out the official proposal forms we've been working with and obtaining signatures.
I can take the liberty of drawing up some sketches and making a list of possible materials. Not to say that other people couldn't draw up some sketches as well so we have more to work with. This is what I can contribute.
As for the tea party on Thursday, I am talking to a friend/ former coworker in the costume shop that may be able to lend us some top hats. No promises yet.

Hey Rachel,
ReplyDeleteI am interested in helping! Lets discuss this!
hey, yeah i wanted to do giant mushrooms as well and was about to post about it and saw that you got here first! I am defiantly on board for the giant mushrooms!
ReplyDeleteI called facilities and they directed me to Matt Clement who is supervisor of the grounds and athletic fields. He did not answer his phone, but I sent him an e-mail vaguely explaining the mushroom idea and asking about general guildlines we should be considering for doing a project outdoors. Hopefully this will help us with our design proposal and increase our chances for approval.
ReplyDeleteoh yeah, i thought of one more thing that would be great to use to make the mushrooms: upholstery foam. if you make a wooden under structure and staple canvas or cloth to the wood, then stuff the curved parts with soft foam, it will look very organic and be somewhat flexible
ReplyDeletei can help you- i think if we have enough people we could make several of these
