Beam Camp Presents: INVENTGENUITY FESTIVAL 2012
INVENTGENUITY is for Kids 7-16
The weekend’s big Project, “The Dis/Assembly Line,” is an evolving decomposition and aesthetic reprocessing of an entire room of everyday objects. Kids will join kinetic art mechanic Steve Gerberich as they dissect, sort and reconfigure artifacts into 2D and 3D sculpture. Attendees may also sign-up for one of the rotating slate of 45-minute workshops. Scheduled workshops will explore the Dis/Assembly theme through puppetry (Jonny Clockworks), food (Kathryn Wallem), electronics (Ed Bear), language in 3D (Eun Jung (EJ) Park), craft (Julie Schneider), video (Allen Riley and Jeff Sisson), and painting (Adam Matta).
