The Patterning – an image-inspired poem

July 31, 2008

I just received this poem written by S. David which was inspired by a photograph of one of our Parsons students working out a beading pattern in Guatemala. I’m flattered that this image would inspire poetry!

The Patterning [untitled image 9426]

Math
Art
Geometric
Patterning
Whatever
It’s creative
Planning
Plotting
Is it
Homework
Or work
Sometimes
A picture
Tells a story
Sometimes
Only part
Of the story
And which
Is this

Project: Ajkem'a Loy'a

July 11, 2008

Volcan Toliman
I spent the month of June in San Lucas Toliman, Guatemala, with 13 students and 2 other colleagues from The New School, collaborating with the Mayan artisan women association, Ajkem’a Loy’a. I am highly inspired by this project and hope to continue practice and theory-based research on how design interventions can promote economic development.

While there, we created this blog that we updated almost daily, and of course, I also took many, many photographs of which the best are on my Flickr account.
