collaborative process

 QR_U can be described as a relational and networked project that intends to make visible the inside of an open school and to distribute the school's inquiry widely. Participants are presented with a series of questions about their relationship with the arts, learning and technology. 'QR’ in the project title is a play on the abbreviated form of QR code, which actually stands for Quick Response.

This challenge takes place on the first day of my Creative Process classes for Foundation students at Emily Carr University. Students have 2 hours to conceive of, design and build a device that will move a ping pong ball across the room using only 3600 hand sanded wooden blocks. Once released, the ball can not touch the floor or hands, nor can students touch the blocks.
