Cross Cultural Trip - Touring the North Island of New Zealand

The New Forms Project provided logistical support for a "Cross Cultural" study abroad trip of 15 college students and their professor from Messiah College, located in Grantham, Pennsylvania. Pictures from the student's trip to a sheep station, "zorbing", exploring glow worm caves and camping along some of New Zealand's beautiful coast line.

A revolution is born!

After a little over a year of late night and early morning (but mostly late night:) sessions Lach and Jordan launch a blog to chronicle the mountain-top conversations and the email brainstorms that are the manifesto in the making!

Re: Everyday Magic

The Cult of Everyday Magic. i don't know if i like "Cult" but its sort of tongue and cheek.
have you seen this http://expandedspectrum.blogspot.com? Its done on blogger through google for free and is really easy to set up. Maybe thats a nice idea - we create one with a name we can get behind and enable both of us to post on it and by midnight on Thursdays we have to have posted something that progressing the thing forward in some way?

And then I think making up a logo and stamp, seal, embosser, etc. could come in handy. put the seal into the rubber bumper of the pedal car, even the steering wheel cover maybe. Yeah, something sort of future primitive, alchemical. Like the Knights of the Templar who were fighting monks:)

Everyday Magic

Yes All of that stuff. I like the idea of referencing
some medievil seal with a name that matches etc, lets
work that some more. I remembered that Thursday is
cath's birthday, so we might be doing something I'm
not sure. I'll let you know and we can work around it.

In the interests of artistic exploration I like the
idea of working on different art styles and one off
pieces for now. It fits nicely with larger projects
like Burning Man and a possible gallery show
afterwards. It would be nice to work within seasonal
cycles that might influence the direction on a small
number of excellent projects. We also have very
different skills so we can think about how to combine
them for some stuff and also just do our own work. A
Blog might be good too. Somewhere we can post
progress. That idea also helps with motivation and
discipline.

You talked about "living an exceptional life" on the
weekend. The broader awareness of art in it's newly
developing form and everything we talk about around
interacting with people and next level thinking wants
to be represented in our work. It's a complex
philosophy but pretty grass roots at the same time.
Maybe we should try and get a handle on exactly what
that might mean, to "Live an exceptional life".

The Cult of Everyday Magic. Not bad.
