PERFORMANCE: In this class, students will be given the opportunity to learn how their bodies, words, and movements can be used as elements of an artwork. Emphasis will be on taking personal expressions to a new poetic level. Performances may connect with other art forms such as video, sculptural, or music art forms as well.
NEW MUSIC: This is a class in the creation of new compositions utilizing a variety of instruments which the students create and play. Hand drumming techniques will also be taught as well as different ways of composing which may connect with other elements such as video, sculpture, and performance art.
