Defining my Identity #7

- Upload my favorite educational Youtube moments. Each selection must have a brief summary of the content and why I chose it.

<ENGAGE at CCA: Designing Ecology with Año Nuevo Island>


  
For my YouTube educational moment, I chose this video. This video is about an engaging project from California College of Art. The faculty and students are working together as a group to solve social needs for their community. With collaboration of the Ceramic class chair Nathan Lynch and his students from CCA, biologists, REBAR art, design, and social activism group and architectures, they all decided to design nesting modules to protect the endangered rhinoceros aucklet birds living on Año Nuevo Island which is located in northern California.  Watching this video, I was impressed with how art could react like a musical orchestra. Different fields of art participate together producing influential and impacted final results. Also, it showed me every step of the process to acquire their final nesting sculpture. Compared to the way I brainstorm and produce art projects, their's were similar. Therefore, progress is significant in developing concepts to final pieces. Unravelling social environmental issues through art inspired me a lot because I am collecting plastic water bottles for a school trash art project. This widened my thoughts in visual art. Therefore, by watching this video clip, it educated me about how art reveals itself and the steps to produce the final pieces with all avenues of art.
