    My goal is to __Live interaction with artist_______. I will be working with the following Skype, iChat Wikispaces, Plurk,Twitter, RSS Feeds, Twitter Groups, Twhirl, Twitter4Teachers, ArtSchools.com, delicious.com, and more...




























My story so far…..

I came into this workshop with a simple idea; create a collaboration between my art class and an artist or art student while they demonstrate a concept or technique.

Sounds simple.


How do I capture the experience?

I loaded SKYPE and familiarized myself and my colleagues with it’s functions.
I reacquainted myself with iChat and recorded my first video chat with someone off campus.
I have learned that Skype links PC with Mac and iChat is for Mac to Mac.

Where do I find artist or art students?

Twitter …My followers and twitting folk I follow has increased substantially.
Plurk….Making new buddies.
Websites with art chats.

What are parameters of the video interaction?

What are the legal requirements for rights for privacy for the student?

A format for the students to write up or use in a script for a presentation.

Artist knows what will be expected for him/her to speak to.

Rough idea:
Protocol for Video chat with artist.

1. Name
2. Discipline
3. Years as artist or in Art School
4. How did you get started?
a. Schools /Training
b. Special workshops
c. Installations / Galleries..Musuems

5. What will you Demo today?
6. At least three questions from students…
Examples:
Why do you paint, sculpt, carve,etc..?
What are your inspirations ?
Where do you see yourself going with your art in the future?





Inquiring minds want to know.


I have Tweeted and Plurked request for info on how to go about find participants.

I took advantage of our guest speakers and picked their brains. I even tweeted Matthew Needleman in California.

I have contacted several schools such as Savannah College of Art and Design and Full Sail University to find students interested. Universities love to promote their programs. What better way than to show their facilities in use.

I want to promote local artist so I contacted The Arts Council of Northwest Florida.

My department wants to share with local high schools to connect students with peers their age and in their community.






Spur of the moment idea:

A student lead video coverage of gallery night.

Find out legal issues.
Select willing galleries
