Proposal Title
The Sky at Moriarty: Engaging Students in Collaborative Work
Abstract
Moriarty Library has stained glass windows that filter light from the heavens. We think of the sky as positioned outdoors, but the sky also exists within the space of the library, represented within pages of books. In October, Visiting Artist Aaron Krach led 102 First Year LUCAD students on a hunt to “find the sky” in Moriarty Library. The crowdsourced image and data gathering produced an artist’s book containing every image sourced, including citation, and an installation in Moriarty Library.
