While at home be on the look out for BOXES!

February 27, 2012

For your coLAB course, you will need to bring back one or more containers. Select something that is:

1. Rigid. It should be made of wood, plastic or similar materials. (no cardboard!)

2. Closes. It has an inside and an outside.

3. Can be altered, taken apart or adapted. Avoid something that you want to leave ‘as is’.

4. At least one foot long in one direction, but can be larger!

5. It should be interesting, unusual, or distinctive and something you LIKE.

6. It should NOT be new. This should be purchased at a thrift store or garage sale or found in your parents basement! Please do not purchase a new box at a craft store!

You will need this on the FIRST day of class! You may want to bring a couple so you have choices!

Happy New Year, Happy New Semester!

January 4, 2012

When you return to Alfred, you will be taking four new studios called: seeLAB, makeLAB, fuseLAB, and coLAB. Each will require different materials and it’s best to pick those up before coming to Alfred. Faculty will be asking that I post the required materials here in the next few weeks. So please check back!
