childrens’ soccer coach and aspiring hairstylist), a Shakespearean defendant, and more, demonstrates my understanding of material that I have drawn from both our study of law and our study of Shakespearean writing. "In my comic strip, Patrick the 23-Year Old gets summoned for jury duty for the battery trial of Shakespearean actor Sir Kendall Branaghan, who is being sued by actor Daniel Coolledge for throwing a book at the latter on the set of a movie they were making. Branaghan attempts to defend himself by claiming that his intent was to hit a bird, not Coolledge, and that someone who would defend himself using iambic pentameter could only be innocent. However, Coolledge’s lawyer, David Leaseholder, proves otherwise with actual law knowledge, witness testimony, video evidence, and correct usage of iambic pentameter. That somewhat sums up (rimshot) the plot of my comic strip for you." https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655089510306-96EI4ADQPSSG8GF6706Z/Screen%2BShot%2B2021-11-22%2Bat%2B2.59.55%2BPM.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1675608660373-UJRZ09F81R0X9SZXGJ58/04.jpeg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1675608658611-T4RKTC7F9RBDSGQF5JAT/02.jpeg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1675608659158-OUWTBLMV259Y9KGFOAH0/03.jpeg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1654958320476-AJM3U8PUF1NV10QXG45C/Lydia1.jpg Home "In my graphic novel my characters, Misty, Harvest, Eclipse and Erebos discuss different endings to one of Shakespeare’s tragedies, Antony and Cleopatra.

Lydia’s expressive, thoughtful pair of paintings enacts antithesis in many ways. As she explained in her oral presentation of her work, the left-side depicts “iamb,” the metrical foot often associated with the heartbeat, and which, etymologically means "to step," (which she depicted with a relatively leisurely heart rate). By contrast, the trochee is an inversion of the iamb (the heart is inverted, and defined by negative space surrounded by dappled green, red's opposite on the color wheel).

You don’t want to throw them away, but you don’t want to look like a hoarder. Well, you can 3-D print a plunger, find some o-rings that fit it and put your tools together to make this. Now you have an extruder! But what do you use it for? Frosting? No, that would be unsanitary. Some of this has been sitting in a basement for years. You could use it for paper. Paper pulp could be sculpted and extruded into things that don’t break when you drop them and are perfect environments for mold when they are wet. If you use enough recycled paper it might even make your recycling bin easier to drag to the curb." https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655087999661-2HJTO8X2Y5JCG4DB1IXX/11.jpg Projects "How do you make this paper pulp? You get an old blender and fill it with your ingredients. Paper is the main ingredient; you can use anything: junk mail, old newspapers or embarrassing photographs. You can also use weeds from your yard and other biodegradable plant life. You can put all sorts of things in this mixture! I made this bowl using my extruder, a plaster mold and a homemade paper mix. The mix is a secret recipe, but I'll tell it to you anyway: Several grocery lists on purple halloweeny paper, newspaper, purple paint, dryer lint, cobwebs, dog fur, dead bugs, and plants. (The plants were clover, knot grass, kale and leaves.)" https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655087997412-SXNA7IEIZ2MUIF5EI34L/5.jpg Projects "Overall this invention is unique and unusual.

She placed the figures in a natural setting, one that retained the visually-echoing archways of the original Raphael work. As she explained in her oral presentation of her work, the figures of Plato and Aristotle represent differing views, ones that contrast in their ultimate focus: an ideal world of forms as opposed to the sensory world of Earth. She then added that, since Raphael himself was using these figures' gestures to allude to those contrasting philosophies, and since she (Arora) was alluding to Raphael's work by sculpting only those two figures (out of dozens in the original), her work was, essentially, "an allusion of an allusion." https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655074704927-SHPOCW3KHQGEQ32DSDYC/Arora--Athens2.jpg Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655074987592-DHTI12OV7Y3400QLFL6I/49D3EEA2-4A66-47CA-8BDB-D492F94EA81F.jpg Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655074706058-3UO0T94O6JNPR50FWCG9/Lydia--Antithesis.png Projects Lydia’s expressive, thoughtful pair of paintings enacts antithesis in many ways. As she explained in her oral presentation of her work, the left-side depicts “iamb,” the metrical foot often associated with the heartbeat, and which, etymologically means "to step," (which she depicted with a relatively leisurely heart rate). By contrast, the trochee is an inversion of the iamb (the heart is inverted, and defined by negative space surrounded by dappled green, red's opposite on the color wheel). Etymologically, "trochee" means "to run," thus elevating the pulse. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655074988227-WT7EATI9F9HIGGQLM58S/241394593_10228090478187676_7080086973983228559_n.jpg Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655074987673-YAPXEFNMZX42NVZ57MBU/240583619_10228090475987621_7510234779496723963_n.jpg Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655074988112-7WNUYJ8L1GBC3OLI9Z7P/240663418_10228090473307554_4350671005855815786_n.jpg Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655074989971-D7A19JPHULYFG74A0W1N/Screen%2BShot%2B2020-11-16%2Bat%2B2.37.09%2BPM.png Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655074989661-XS99NMAQ5HO03K0OLG63/Screen%2BShot%2B2020-11-17%2Bat%2B2.34.38%2BPM.png Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655074991251-K12DFEQ5X4A06D41J80E/Screen%2BShot%2B2020-11-17%2Bat%2B2.49.33%2BPM.png Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655074991817-VVFUIVV5DYIIXMU89Y4S/Screen%2BShot%2B2020-11-17%2Bat%2B8.12.23%2BPM.png Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655074995280-Z44R5JCKCT5XM3KC64ZC/Screen%2BShot%2B2020-11-17%2Bat%2B8.36.28%2BPM.png Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655074993012-8V5IOKOURZN3EK6UH87O/Screen%2BShot%2B2020-11-17%2Bat%2B8.34.29%2BPM.png Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655074996032-6U7KQDCYZUMOZUZ712U9/Screen%2BShot%2B2020-11-22%2Bat%2B8.36.11%2BAM.png Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655074997334-RQM57FITIS2UOQKIFPAK/Screen%2BShot%2B2021-11-22%2Bat%2B2.55.45%2BPM.png Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655074999302-4DUGEK9D9PQ3EKEIAE54/Screen%2BShot%2B2021-11-22%2Bat%2B2.56.00%2BPM.png Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655074999302-IP2Y5T0FO47OUOEQLDMN/Screen%2BShot%2B2021-11-22%2Bat%2B2.56.29%2BPM.png Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655075000445-VMBL1UDR19XC4FC4M361/Screen%2BShot%2B2021-11-22%2Bat%2B2.56.36%2BPM.png Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655075000446-V1DBK0XAYH6293MVRYYH/Screen%2BShot%2B2021-11-22%2Bat%2B2.56.48%2BPM.png Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655075002148-SSS27YELYLERSFGTPCCD/Screen%2BShot%2B2021-11-22%2Bat%2B2.59.55%2BPM.png Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655075002233-Y207AA1M5NBTB0JVY2QL/Screen%2BShot%2B2021-11-22%2Bat%2B3.13.55%2BPM.png Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655075002914-S005BP2RZ80GTA7P2NXN/Screen%2BShot%2B2021-11-23%2Bat%2B10.33.29%2BAM.png Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655075003332-USY6T89YMBBSXBZA913F/Screen%2BShot%2B2021-11-23%2Bat%2B10.33.37%2BAM.png Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655075003841-61XPNPUNKKJCIHSU289N/Screen%2BShot%2B2021-11-23%2Bat%2B10.33.51%2BAM.png Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655088231626-F92G9U9MHJCLLJOALQL3/arora.jpg Projects "I have used a styrofoam head to house my model of the brain, highlighting the prefrontal cortex, the cortex, the hippocampus, the amygdala, and the suprachiasmatic nucleus.

"In my comic strip, Patrick the 23-Year Old gets summoned for jury duty for the battery trial of Shakespearean actor Sir Kendall Branaghan, who is being sued by actor Daniel Coolledge for throwing a book at the latter on the set of a movie they were making. Branaghan attempts to defend himself by claiming that his intent was to hit a bird, not Coolledge, and that someone who would defend himself using iambic pentameter could only be innocent. However, Coolledge’s lawyer, David Leaseholder, proves otherwise with actual law knowledge, witness testimony, video evidence, and correct usage of iambic pentameter. That somewhat sums up (rimshot) the plot of my comic strip for you." --Ian https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655088233446-OCSB7SX6AUPT0WD58X1E/Lydia1.jpg Projects "In my graphic novel my characters, Misty, Harvest, Eclipse and Erebos discuss different endings to one of Shakespeare’s tragedies, Antony and Cleopatra.

About Nothing was performed at the Guild Hall Theatre in 2018. The show was set in the present moment while staying true to the Elizabethan text. We celebrated the joyful exuberance of the play, without backing away from the tragic Hero/Claudio plot that's nested inside the comedy. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1688425542214-WPOC5W3NL0QD4RJCLUWQ/fringe%2Bfest%2Bposter.jpg Coleman In 2018, my wife and I created The Wichita Fringe Festival, an annual, one-day theatrical event that celebrates the work of local high school playwrights. Working with professional mentors from the Wichita theatre community, playwrights from schools throughout the city take their scripts through the process from stage to page, culminating in a performance of their works by area high school actors. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/d1d06af1-b9f1-442f-955b-e577aaa8a15d/19055498_10213812529127873_1496509330220062018_o.jpg Coleman As part of our drama class in 2016, three students ranging in ages from 14-17 performed The Cure at Troy in the Friendship Garden that our school shared with Friends University. Seamus Heaney's version of Sophocles' Philoctetes, the play is set during the Trojan War and centers on a famed Greek archer. Having been marooned by his community because his illness was a distraction, he must learn how to trust again. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/c7326833-0e60-431b-b70b-2daaaab0b5c6/272880271_10228790243441370_8156259011765825596_n.jpeg Coleman ARTHUR MILLER: After I’d done “All My Sons,” which was, of course, in a straightforward, realistic form, I got the feeling that I could start to tread new territory, that here was a kind of play which would allow me to treat time concurrently. I think we all think on two, three, or four different levels at the same time.... I thought, Wouldn’t it be marvellous to be able to do a play where somebody is in two or three different places concurrently."

We raised $1500. The photo above was one of the moments of joyful discovery in rehearsal: we called this "the sadderpillar." It's when the mechanicals enter fearing that Bottom and their company's chance to perform for the Duke have been lost forever. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/9ecbc021-9b83-4cc2-879b-a49f872c8580/1403375_10201374551824451_1630501942_o.jpg Coleman Our goal was to create a truly unsettling production Macbeth, one that did justice to the dark rhythms of the text. We also sought to foreground a second tragedy within the story: the dissolution of a marriage. Our reading of the text revealed the close, nearly supernatural link Lady Macbeth and Macbeth share when the play begins. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/b709dc7b-eaef-4938-9a74-85aad0e381ab/Screen+Shot+2023-07-06+at+8.31.24+PM.png Coleman The Wichita Center for the Performing Arts, 2018.

We considered the dance as form of Shakespeare's heightened speech: when emotion breaks the bounds of prosaic life, form is intensified. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/3b38ab2e-17c2-4de9-b917-38df790e8733/50309632_10219072800671374_4633464676598939648_o.jpg Coleman Though set in our time, our production of Hamlet was also set within a cycle of violence that has run through centuries, where one generation's violence creates the conditions for another's, where revenge is expected, where even a dead father retains the power to charge his son to shed another’s blood. It is a culture of violence both overt and casual, where women are objects to be shaped by men’s words and plans, used and then forgotten.

For example, the letters that are brought out at the end to reveal Benedick and Beatrice's secret feelings for each other were imagined in our production to be two white boards, upon which each lover has composed one half of Shakespeare's sonnet 18. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/57507855-2807-47f2-87ed-95c4fa42c5f9/Screen+Shot+2023-07-04+at+3.30.42+PM.png Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1d7fb23d-5c25-41d5-9376-8cfb194f1c78/Screen+Shot+2023-07-03+at+5.04.41+PM.png Coleman The flower imagery returns in Ophelia's final scenes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/496dc349-cc0f-47e8-bfe3-8ed57ee2a6ec/Screen+Shot+2023-07-03+at+5.04.30+PM.png Coleman Often productions of Hamlet reduce the gravedigger scene to one actor. When we read the texts, we found a great--and very funny--double-act in the banter between the two diggers.

It's when the mechanicals enter fearing that Bottom and their company's chance to perform for the Duke have been lost forever. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1d09d4e8-558c-478d-bd9a-c44e54bba369/21640814_10214820434964889_7251986959061027219_o.jpeg Madi Coleman Our production of Much Ado About Nothing was performed at the Guild Hall Theatre in 2018. The show was set in the present moment while staying true to the Elizabethan text. We celebrated the joyful exuberance of the play, without backing away from the tragic Hero/Claudio plot that's nested inside the comedy. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1688425542214-WPOC5W3NL0QD4RJCLUWQ/fringe%2Bfest%2Bposter.jpg Madi Coleman In 2018, my wife and I created The Wichita Fringe Festival, an annual, one-day theatrical event that celebrates the work of local high school playwrights. Working with professional mentors from the Wichita theatre community, playwrights from schools throughout the city take their scripts through the process from stage to page, culminating in a performance of their works by area high school actors. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/9ecbc021-9b83-4cc2-879b-a49f872c8580/1403375_10201374551824451_1630501942_o.jpg Madi Coleman Our goal was to create a truly unsettling production Macbeth, one that did justice to the dark rhythms of the text. We also sought to foreground a second tragedy within the story: the dissolution of a marriage. Our reading of the text revealed the close, nearly supernatural link Lady Macbeth and Macbeth share when the play begins. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/93b3c171-f732-4c6b-a764-95987d50659a/Screen+Shot+2023-07-06+at+9.17.14+PM.png Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/c7326833-0e60-431b-b70b-2daaaab0b5c6/272880271_10228790243441370_8156259011765825596_n.jpeg Madi Coleman ARTHUR MILLER: After I’d done “All My Sons,” which was, of course, in a straightforward, realistic form, I got the feeling that I could start to tread new territory, that here was a kind of play which would allow me to treat time concurrently. I think we all think on two, three, or four different levels at the same time.... I thought, Wouldn’t it be marvellous to be able to do a play where somebody is in two or three different places concurrently." https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/c81e9441-6ceb-4dc4-8d2d-815a6249923e/DSC02517.jpg Madi Coleman The show opened with a musical-theatre style dance number to "Sing, Sing, Sing" (a post-war tune) in order to underscore the excitement the townspeople felt as they gathered to hear the news of Don Pedro's approach. We considered the dance as form of Shakespeare's heightened speech: when emotion breaks the bounds of prosaic life, form is intensified. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/545154eb-d61e-4a0c-af59-365dc9bba59e/17632389_10213092051996395_8362390072033512505_o.jpg Madi Coleman The play opens on a blood-soaked battlefield, which the witches peel back to reveal a dark circle. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/3b38ab2e-17c2-4de9-b917-38df790e8733/50309632_10219072800671374_4633464676598939648_o.jpg Madi Coleman Though set in our time, our production of Hamlet was also set within a cycle of violence that has run through centuries, where one generation's violence creates the conditions for another's, where revenge is expected, where even a dead father retains the power to charge his son to shed another’s blood. It is a culture of violence both overt and casual, where women are objects to be shaped by men’s words and plans, used and then forgotten. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/53a5d721-dae4-448a-81a3-f4cc3afe9fa0/i-rmHP8XB-X5.jpeg Madi Coleman The students created the props and designed the costumes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/01efc912-8cdd-4f6f-b4cc-7d77637c9cf5/145366855_10226239434552742_4429215481526968603_n.jpeg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/63f79d3f-e999-4c32-a3db-7a3ef4bd6864/130599604_10225807987846844_997426724697670362_n.jpeg Madi Coleman The students designed and created the costumes and the set.

In our performance, the ghost literally puts the dagger in Hamlet's hands, as though completing a circuit (we had noticed in the text early in rehearsals how the encounter with his father jolts Hamlet with energy). A kind of violence enters him. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/f37d2211-9f98-4cf4-a06e-75d7a27b9dfb/DSC02554.jpg Madi Coleman ...or dramatizing Benedick's sudden and full-throated embrace of emotion by having him lip-synch to a Smiths song. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/b3b1b77b-eebd-4594-ad14-c4e25932f81d/i-Zh6Lvpd-X5.jpeg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/0b8f798e-ebf3-4fa5-9ca3-ec0bc7426310/DSC02558.jpg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/162051a0-f41c-4c1d-a984-06078172e0bd/145176644_10226239433512716_2701625883948816469_n.jpeg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/cc07b125-97e2-48a9-a399-48a4f43ad106/4.jpeg Madi Coleman Hamlet's powerful imagination, thrust into the cycle of violence, takes physical form in certain moments of our production. Here, he imagines killing Claudius as the latter prays. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/dd7d2fb0-d7ec-4c80-9cf4-d3bb549a38f3/i-h9LFFVG-X5.jpeg Madi Coleman We based the choreography of the masked-ball on that of the classic Muppet Show sketch "At the Dance" (in which couples wheel into the foreground, deliver jokes, then wheel away), after noting how the two scenes bore structural similarities. All of this was set to a live piano-and-bass rendition of the song that plays in the Muppet Show sketch. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/25bda501-24ce-432c-bcd7-36df888e4d52/145476177_10226239465873525_1500444267704206774_n.jpeg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/060354c4-dc25-4118-bbc7-7bcca592cea4/2.jpeg Madi Coleman The cycle of violence continues its course when Hamlet commands his cohorts to swear allegiance upon the father's dagger. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/d32a8f2a-aaac-4587-bfe2-a14e3c7ade0b/i-7tjWrgD-X5.jpeg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/fdf04482-86f9-4e6d-b0a8-614054004030/145325829_10226239465993528_5927221494503492312_n.jpeg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/33fdd105-5340-469c-b008-dadaaef440e2/145866372_10226239461833424_8001605157337876475_n.jpeg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/88683521-c619-432f-902f-1ffaca1296ad/Screen+Shot+2023-07-07+at+12.35.20+AM.png Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/e2bf661b-33a6-4e9c-859b-6dd4b34d15a3/DSC02534.jpg Madi Coleman "We are the only love gods!" https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/7b93f391-7534-4a19-857e-0508c83336ad/i-9X5Vvzc-X5.jpeg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/89868214-e2ad-454b-b34d-556e227d3f09/145811362_10226239460993403_6764824038607745389_n.jpeg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/3cfdb25a-380e-49da-ba54-ea240b2d3023/closet1.jpeg Madi Coleman We also noted in our early close readings of the play how often female characters are isolated, or appear onstage without words, or whose words are reported by men, or whose actions are directed by men. Our production highlighted these power dynamics. Here, Gertrude waits for her son. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/acf246f8-1e82-4cf2-b5ef-ee7a99cf84da/i-wZC6Gfd-X5.jpeg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/f91b44ff-87ab-4a27-a3b6-cf162f2c149b/145734484_10226239461633419_8655636897453590247_n.jpeg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/6bd1cbf4-9513-4abc-aaef-ef0cfe1fcec5/closet2.jpeg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/baf33467-2dc3-4a8d-b231-4e7aa657934b/145334452_10226239461313411_8468074198524884104_n.jpeg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/0417f2e8-d315-4cd5-8ffb-bf7762afe67a/i-v5gbvck-X5.jpeg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/3b6c14a8-71ad-460c-9831-2435178a6f40/i-37P2Qs7-X5.jpeg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/a414bcd7-90ff-481e-a77e-d5828add5d28/closet3.jpeg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/65833885-e4c7-420b-b80c-534ccca35202/145353295_10226239483913976_4116384965333590794_n.jpeg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/9d4cda13-8c9b-4296-a428-40a4ccf69e3e/DSC02546.jpg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/b872819f-1119-4f01-a43a-8f3ac678c2ca/closet4.jpeg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/886483bb-5c0c-4a0b-9e09-1f553bff7a04/i-qfwRpqF-X5.jpeg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/f9c7855f-8533-4242-8cbf-8d7c20d2f917/DSC02592.jpg Madi Coleman The actor playing Dogberry noted how many religiously charged words Shakespeare includes in the character's dialogue. This informed his choices in terms of vocal delivery; he often spoke as if he were a wildly confident and inept preacher. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/6e4799fe-ddb3-49bf-8fc1-082225767ea4/closet5.jpeg Madi Coleman We also highlighted the close bond the text reveals concerning Hamlet and Gertrude. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/ea515fd8-3f91-4d76-97b0-6c78422c30c9/i-5HLjTcW-X5.jpeg Madi Coleman The song "It is Only a Paper Moon" is sung three times in the production, as its theme--the power of artifice and theatricality ("it wouldn't be make-believe if you believed in me")--infuses the plot of Much Ado. This power is used in the gulling scenes to bring Benedick and Beatrice together. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/56cf7b26-43de-455a-a674-a08b6b016f6b/Screen+Shot+2023-07-04+at+1.59.48+PM.png Madi Coleman This theme is seen in tragic light in the Claudio and Hero plot. Claudio rejects Hero after being deceived by Borachio's act of artifice and theatricality. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/a4eef859-8395-443a-a813-0da21f811698/Hamlet+Photos+7-23+%285+of+27%29.jpg Madi Coleman The fall of Ophelia is a tragedy equal to Hamlet's. We began to dramatize this by showing her joyful, playful spirit we first we meet her. She is arranging the flowers we imagined Hamlet had sent her, humming a light tune and reading the note that accompanied the gift. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/55386a40-fa26-4414-af15-d4ae816b2a47/DSC02586.jpg Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/3f7ce234-e304-4c7b-b25b-eb957c70fc24/Hamlet+Photos+7-23+%2810+of+27%29.jpg Madi Coleman She is confident and witty, bantering with her brother. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/bcc5dae4-a6d3-4a45-9466-3fb0602da874/Screen+Shot+2023-07-04+at+1.50.17+PM.png Madi Coleman At the end of the play, Hero returns, bearing the bright paper moon from their ruined wedding. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/8ef62370-c6f8-40da-b428-0cb8fdad02e9/Screen+Shot+2023-07-04+at+1.50.46+PM.png Madi Coleman https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/a1642911-818a-489e-bcd9-52a737187ecd/Hamlet+Photos+7-23+%2811+of+27%29.jpg Madi Coleman Soon she will be forced into serving her father's political ends, her identity effaced. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/4a82cc46-0790-4bd9-8cfd-b4341935d5af/Screen+Shot+2023-07-04+at+1.51.21+PM.png Madi Coleman In an act of theatricality, Hero tears away the paper surface of the moon, tears away the artifice. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/5489d035-5190-4302-841f-46763657b351/Hamlet+Photos+7-23+%2812+of+27%29.jpg Madi Coleman Polonius finds Hamlet's note with the flowers, violating his daughter's privacy.

"Every time I pictured him, he changed," Lydia told us in her presentation. The figures that emerged from her experimentation in imagining Grendel explore the source text's verbs ("It's mentioned twice that he 'swoops,' she noted, adding that that word's definition, when combined with the mention of "talons," compose a descending bird of prey), even as they dramatize the humanioid/avian mixture that strikes at the heart of the creature's fearsomeness. Along the way, she analyzed the text for subtle clues in imagery and turns of phrase that might suggest aspects of the creature's surface textures, and disposition. "Overall, the collage I did of him was fragmented," Lydia concluded. "I never drew all of him, for evidence about his appearance is antithetical and confusing. His actions speak louder than his descriptions." https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/11863688-9893-4a49-b425-632039edb917/245745727_10228101760229720_6223172040055608098_n.jpg Deep Dives - Monsters' Ink https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/7dce88cd-cd0b-4177-ac24-426f5692413e/245751688_10228101526943888_2994449433631782164_n.jpg Deep Dives - Monsters' Ink https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/0ddf4035-7eae-4389-93de-cc73f2c901b4/279735334_120117467322773_4252888372906028451_n.jpg Deep Dives - Monsters' Ink Henry's Grendel took inspiration from some of the verbs the scop uses in the text (as rendered by Seamus Heaney in his translation). The creature's said to "lope" and to "swoop." The former's definition included a horse's gait, which informed the creature's legs, while the latter's definition, constellated with other mentions of Grendel's night-work, inspired the monster's night-filled wing-span, which, in the light, shows its feathers. https://www.starsplitteracademy.com/deep-dives-1/project-one-mb48j monthly 0.5 2022-06-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/292912b1-cf6c-4901-9f74-e7804c02a850/2.jpg Deep Dives - Camera Obscura https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/769aed3c-efdf-4efa-9e0b-dbaadd3a3867/1.jpg Deep Dives - Camera Obscura https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/82e628ba-ced6-4d3f-a6b5-ba8e62b52e4c/3.jpg Deep Dives - Camera Obscura The Star-Splitters' open eye to the world's wonders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/78cc9c96-9fdd-4f4d-ad1b-6c4ec4a7d02c/4.jpg Deep Dives - Camera Obscura We covered the windows in trash bags, then cut a hole the size of a dime. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/cfbd533f-78ba-41ff-9a47-999204146fa3/5.jpg Deep Dives - Camera Obscura Before we opened the room's pupil.

Whoville, the fourteen Whopreme Court Justices tested the federal law against the Constitution, and found that it was at odds with the 14th Amendment's guarantee of due process regarding property rights. The court also cited the reasoning behind the 1803 Marbury v. Madison decision as a relevant precedent in this regard. Having struck down the federal law, the Whopreme Court ruled on how the case would have turned out under the original state statute, which explicitly carves out an exception for those whose acts of thievery "resulted in self-betterment of more than 2 heart sizes in one day" and who "returned the property before being arrested." Because the Grinch 1) experienced heart growth of over 2 sizes, and 2) returned the property before being arrested, the exception in the state statute applies to him, and the theft charge is dropped. The upshot: The Grinch walked! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/ebc82b2a-efa7-4b3e-97d5-5e93fe80770a/248434940_4557011537746809_5094537372403456510_n.jpg Deep Dives - 2L: U.S. History Through Landmark Supreme Court Cases Justices Jeff Wingwho [aka Ian] and Owl Who Who [aka Isabelle], as Co-Chief Justices on the court this year, wrote concurring opinions on the case https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/533d5e07-dfdc-4dcc-8a3b-e31f21be8aaf/257759179_4557011877746775_2988745637269803087_n.jpg Deep Dives - 2L: U.S. History Through Landmark Supreme Court Cases https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/209c9204-0586-4138-a664-c109d09fa7f2/256344620_4557011594413470_5346917494956314628_n.jpg Deep Dives - 2L: U.S. History Through Landmark Supreme Court Cases https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/7832b6a4-8f8c-463c-a217-4e13472cfbdc/255972484_4557011584413471_2366685466721366537_n.jpg Deep Dives - 2L: U.S. History Through Landmark Supreme Court Cases Justice Arora Who, with her well organized binder of Constitutional Law https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/51adeaed-7a7e-427d-aafb-47891207ea05/255445669_4557011727746790_7095667583825947926_n.jpg Deep Dives - 2L: U.S. History Through Landmark Supreme Court Cases https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/bec1d7cc-0357-41d8-a5f9-f7af14647d21/257883737_4557011777746785_8045238343219083124_n.jpg Deep Dives - 2L: U.S. History Through Landmark Supreme Court Cases Justice Finn Who, ready to apply the constitution to the law! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/7aae8d65-7b9d-49f2-bda7-4c8618dad29c/250556107_10228203627656342_3918518223344661499_n.jpg Deep Dives - 2L: U.S. History Through Landmark Supreme Court Cases Star-Splitter Finn, investigating Article III of the U.S. Constitution, as we make our way through the landmark 1803 Supreme Court case, Marbury v.

Christopher Yoder is a staff attorney at Baron & Budd. He works in their Opioid Litigation Group. He studied philosophy and English literature at Wichita State University, receiving a bachelor of arts in each. His family history of farming closely connected him to grassroots America, and he applied to law school hoping to advocate for those living in underserved rural areas by providing ready access to legal representation. While attending Washburn University School of Law, Mr. Yoder was a recipient of the Hansen Foundation Rural Initiative grant, which allowed him to gain experience practicing criminal defense in remote areas of western Kansas. This advocacy at such a hyper-local level in the farm community inspired in him a passion for representing those who struggle to afford legal representation that provides them with a sincere and powerful voice in the court system. Because of the great need for attorneys in rural areas, and the difficult barrier of entry for new practitioners, Mr. Yoder was motivated to found the Rural Practice Group at Washburn University School of Law to connect aspiring attorneys with established small-town lawyers and to give them a foothold in the community. He also plays jazz guitar and studies sustainable agriculture. Chris lives in Overland Park, KS, with his wife, Rachel, who is a cancer researcher, and their son, Caspian. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/0795cafc-046f-4609-9d2a-9873483aff09/250946951_4508977459216884_339049431832639310_n.jpg Deep Dives -

Bard College Here's what Ian wrote about his work: This drawing is a representation of antithesis. There are several examples of such in this work. The two heads shown are blue and bluey-purple, to represent the contrast between the day and the night (this contrast is aided by the presence of a sun or a moon on each respective being’s forehead). On each face is also a mountain or a city skyline, to represent the natural world and the artificial world. The hair on each head is different, as well: the head of nature has hair of grass on the sides and hair of clouds on the top; the head of artificiality has hair made up of roads, with a strand on the side representing energy and the hair in the ponytail representing subways. However, since antithesis is the juxtaposition of contrasting words, images, or ideas in parallel structure, there are some similarities between the two heads as well. Both faces are made on a base of sky, both feature a major celestial body on their respective foreheads, and both feature tall formations on the nearest sides of their respective heads. There’s my presentation. I’m Ian Bench, and thank you for coming to my TED Talk. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/78da97b9-a0ff-4139-8249-74856e77d6de/Screen+Shot+2021-01-29+at+1.44.19+PM.png Deep Dives - Bard College West's painting, which he titled "Heavy Like a Balloon," exemplifies antithesis in a richly imaginative way. The class especially appreciated the way he rendered reflectivity on the surface of the balloon. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655074706058-3UO0T94O6JNPR50FWCG9/Lydia--Antithesis.png Deep Dives - Bard College Lydia's expressive, thoughtful pair of paintings enacts antithesis in many ways. The left-side depicts "iamb," the metrical foot often associated with the heartbeat, and which, etymologically means "to step," (which she depicted with a relatively leisurely heart rate). By contrast, the trochee is an inversion of the iamb (the heart is inverted, and defined by negative space surrounded by dappled green, red's opposite on the color wheel). Etymologically, "trochee" means "to run," thus elevating the pulse. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655074704592-AP8I31UANSJDHHV1O9CC/Arora--athens1.jpg Deep Dives - Bard College Arora chose to make clay models of Plato and Aristotle, from Raphael's The School of Athens, in order to depict antithesis and allusion. Arora placed the figures in a natural setting, one that retained the visually-echoing archways of the original Raphael work. As she explained in her oral presentation of her work, the figures of Plato and Aristotle represent differing views, ones that contrast in their ultimate focus: an ideal world of forms as opposed to the sensory world of Earth. She then added that, since Raphael himself was using these figures' gestures to allude to those contrasting philosophies, and since she (Arora) was alluding to Raphael's work by sculpting only those two figures (out of dozens in the original), her work was, essentially, "an allusion of an allusion." https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/7f657cb5-69fc-4710-848d-fdc642244ff0/Screen+Shot+2021-01-29+at+1.42.10+PM.png Deep Dives - Bard College https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1655074704927-SHPOCW3KHQGEQ32DSDYC/Arora--Athens2.jpg Deep Dives - Bard College https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1d8ee34c-03b5-46af-ad99-75de2d7bc966/Screen+Shot+2021-01-29+at+1.41.21+PM.png Deep Dives - Bard College https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/a86a9270-adab-4e77-8658-57285a3625b4/Screen+Shot+2021-01-29+at+1.41.41+PM.png Deep Dives - Bard College https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/c8c04094-d10c-475e-a5dc-118db0500805/Screen+Shot+2021-01-29+at+1.41.31+PM.png Deep Dives - Bard College https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/6d48ca42-fdef-494f-89b5-086bb3bae914/Screen+Shot+2021-01-29+at+10.36.38+AM.png Deep Dives - Bard College Gideon depicted the clarifying effect of anaphora on the reading of texts. As he explained, his ADHD can cause him difficulties in readily making sense of a text; the words can seem disorganized (illustrated by the main portion of the painting, in which black marks leave random tracings and loopings). However, when a figure of speech such as anaphora is used by the author and then detected by Gideon, that figure has the effect of bringing that disorder into order (depicted by the band of crimson that contains shades of the inky text). He then added that the proportions of the composition (the crimson band composing a small fraction of the overall compositional space) reflect the reality that such clarifying figures of speech are, in themselves, as fraction of the overall amount of words in a text, while their effect is profound (symbolized by the bold color red) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/96ad9d79-c140-475b-a9f7-8cbeec85e7b3/Screen+Shot+2021-01-29+at+12.06.00+PM.png Deep Dives - Bard College Finn depicted metrical feet through the medium of clothing. His choices were thoughtful: his "iamb" (on the right in this photo) was depicted with casual, everyday wear, in keeping with the fact that, as he said, "it is the most common foot."

The Gates of Logic: Digital and Sentential Logic The Star-Splitters demonstrated their understanding of Boolean logic--including if/else variable statements--by creating their own 80s-style text- based adventure games. From a detective story in which the gumshoe must outwit giant logic gates to a classic escape-the-castle adventure to an intricately crafted tale in which the player's point of view changes depending on the choices they make, the games the students created are wonderful expressions of their students' abilities to blend analysis and creativity--a hallmark of a Star-Splitter education. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/6e33de45-d915-4ed8-824d-6b64d9e4e1e9/308496273_153550130646173_2628316996939244127_n.jpeg Deep Dives - The Gates of Logic: Digital and Sentential Logic To create their games, the students mapped out the decision nodes of their adventures, wrote the story's text, then coded the game in BASIC so as to keep the students as close as possible to the circuitry they've been learning about. As co-teacher Mr. Ewy explains, "What I like about BASIC is how each sequential line of code can be compared to an assembly language instruction (even though it probably represents several actual instructions). It's closer to what's happening in the microprocessor." https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/0ebc8516-5754-48f7-b840-4b1565286822/309684495_153549873979532_2646825569533693271_n.jpeg Deep Dives - The Gates of Logic: Digital and Sentential Logic https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/89344944-365f-4bcb-99ea-c1dcd2747d51/307505025_153549967312856_7399325067658703957_n.jpeg Deep Dives - The Gates of Logic: Digital and Sentential Logic https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/e49ee7f2-c08a-4f58-af61-a67783d4263b/306527034_153550203979499_2963252104542482996_n.jpeg Deep Dives - The Gates of Logic: Digital and Sentential Logic https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/f8b8fbc3-d111-40ad-801b-06ebf7af708c/305068224_153550220646164_7444559283457827254_n.jpeg Deep Dives - The Gates of Logic: Digital and Sentential Logic https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/0d45caec-c315-4db3-8047-70374190a737/305299115_153550047312848_1824170887767216455_n.jpeg Deep Dives - The Gates of Logic: Digital and Sentential Logic https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/593e2009-11fc-465d-a174-9dedd6deb1ed/306858279_153550030646183_4671880103353296263_n.jpeg Deep Dives - The Gates of Logic: Digital and Sentential Logic https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/f68d06c2-a47b-43a1-965f-ad7de27ac754/308639373_136338222476114_1166731328760121093_n.jpeg Deep Dives - The Gates of Logic: Digital and Sentential Logic Oliver created a new logic gate for the improv-loving Star-Splitter Academy: the YES AND gate, which honors any input and adds to it meaningfully. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/1f1b2b9f-e6c2-4deb-bcc5-73b6eed61d9b/Boolean+Yoda.jpeg Deep Dives - The Gates of Logic: Digital and Sentential Logic Surely the time for translating Yoda into a Boolean expression is now, right?

In honor of the occasion, Oliver wrote an interactive program for him in BASIC on Mr. Ewy's Apple IIe. Then we all did our traditional Star-Splitter Birthday Spiral of Virtues, in which we play "Happy Birthday" on our kazoos then go around the room in a spiral pattern, with each person turning to the person we are celebrating and telling them something they value about them. What a joy it was to hear our young Star-Splitters celebrate Mr. Ewy. "I've learned so much from you--about 3D Printing, about computers--in such a short amount of time," said one student. "I am able to understand what had just seemed magical." "I greatly enjoy your classes," said another Star-Splitter. "I appreciate the way you show us many ways of seeing things." "You are kind." "You know what to do." "You help us figure things out." "You have a way of rewording things that is clarifying."

Today the Star-Splitters turned from an abstract understanding of logic gates to a concrete making of those gates using solderless breadboards, batteries, wires, resistors, transistors, momentary switches, and LEDs. The students learned how each of those electronic elements works, as well as the difference between volts, amps, and ohms; Ohm's Law, anodes and cathodes, and much more, courtesy of co-teacher Joel Ewy. We learned, for instance, how resistors are coded via bands of color to indicate their value in Ohms.

(A link to a pdf of the talk is in the comments section below.) In previous years, Jeanine has spoken to us about Joan of Arc, rhinos, kaleidoscopes, cephalopods, sound as touch, illuminated manuscripts, and the act of pilgrimage. This year, she contemplated transitions, in a talk entitled "Mind the Gap," which was followed by a conversation with the students. *** Jeanine Hathaway currently enjoys Professor emerita status from Wichita State University, having taught creative writing and literature there. She was a poetry mentor in Seattle Pacific University’s MFA Program. Hathaway is the author of the autobiographical novel Motherhouse (1992), the 2001 Vassar Miller Poetry Prize-winning The Self as Constellation (2002), and a chapbook, The Ex-Nun Poems (2011). Her most recent collection of poetry is Long After Lauds, published in 2020 by Slant Books. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/e6da43a8-2be6-48f9-890b-1ec924bee07e/301961109_149715501029636_4851527216221206198_n.jpeg Deep Dives - Orientation 2022-2023 "Expanded curiosity is so expansive that our sense of time and space dilate." If you ever want to inspire a group of bright young people, invite the consummate liberal artist Jeanine Hathaway to your school. For the eighth consecutive year, award-winning poet and teacher Jeanine Hathaway has delivered our inaugural talk of the year. Jeanine has spoken to us about Joan of Arc, rhinos, kaleidoscopes, cephalopods, sound as touch, illuminated manuscripts, and the act of pilgrimage. This year, she contemplated transitions in a talk entitled "Mind the Gap," which was followed by a conversation with the students. “Every good story begins in medias res," Jeanine reminded us. "There’s the part that’s Over. There’s the part that’s Next. In the middle gapes a gap. 'Mind the gap' because the gap is the Now. The more we mind it, give attention—surrender—to the Now, the greater it seems to swell. The greater it seems imaginatively as we attend to what’s possible, perhaps especially to what’s improbable.” Thank you, Jeanine, for helping the Star-Splitters attend to possibility! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/c9417212-f477-44af-ab6b-c055ceab16cc/301114753_149715427696310_8427496215075033844_n.jpeg Deep Dives - Orientation 2022-2023 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/c82d1a4e-77b5-43b9-b508-d3ac9cab7160/301784287_149523257715527_4527074195748493977_n.jpeg Deep Dives - Orientation 2022-2023 Today the Star-Splitters improvised a Ted talk on a very important topic.

Then we read the rules for discourse put forth by peace studies professor Anatol Rapoport, the first of which is to restate another's opinion so clearly that they recognize themselves within it. And then we put those ideas into practice: we played improv games, a foundational activity of our school. By following the rules of play, improvisers learn how to seek common ground, even as they learn to more actively listen to others, and to feel the generative force of failure. On their best days, improvisers inhabit a space where “yes and” keeps the work of living in common; keeps everyone listening; keeps conversation exploratory rather than gladiatorial; in such a space, patterns of meaning are joyfully sought and “mistakes” considered precious gifts. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/467acf6e-0a5e-442f-9392-ad5182b71d6c/301033993_149324211068765_3481447609946562281_n.jpeg Deep Dives - Orientation 2022-2023 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/67daf2ba-ce65-4ae5-b561-b301c1f2c56a/301922223_149324234402096_1253813805943259828_n.jpeg Deep Dives - Orientation 2022-2023 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/6f45c053-4380-4395-b2e6-1a67fd68a93f/301605390_149524497715403_3227500748204048499_n.jpeg Deep Dives - Orientation 2022-2023 This morning we read the wondrous essay that gave our school its motto ("I've an eyeful of fishscale and star"): "Intricacy" by Annie Dillard, from A Pilgrim at Tinker Creek. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/52ed3e7f-9799-442e-92e1-91979812bd50/300968609_149524511048735_8251554233006669783_n.jpeg Deep Dives - Orientation 2022-2023 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/7b8d2386-590f-4c8b-8686-33e99f400f20/305316912_149524577715395_7782368824461531852_n.jpeg Deep Dives - Orientation 2022-2023 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/64a30e95-133b-4a21-a99a-fdbd65132ad1/cosmo8.jpeg Deep Dives - Orientation 2022-2023 On Friday, parents and students embarked on our first annual Star-Splitter Academy Ad Astra Adventure, a start-of-the-year field trip in which, as with all our adventures, learning and wonder are one. This year, we traveled to the Kansas Cosmosphere, where we learned about the science that propels our exploration of space: we saw actual spacecraft, hardware, and spacesuits used in exploratory missions; a hands-on demonstration of rocketry presented in the style of Michael Faraday by a wonderful local music student named Jasper; then headed to the planetarium theatre, where we were immersed in the night sky--the visible constellations and deep-space nebulae and galaxies that can be seen in each season. When Orion, the constellation that figures prominently in the Frost poem that gives our school its name, emerged above us, our students couldn't help but cheer!

Students not only exercised their composition skills (the pitch comprised a disguised three-point essay) but also gained further experience in public speaking.

The films then went into production, with students serving in various roles for their classmates' films, including script supervisor, director of photography, and boom operator. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/287a7574-9e35-4720-84ed-c1accd6c438a/324731221_1164717594194201_8013776090464693634_n.jpeg Deep Dives - The Writers' Room: Visual Storytelling https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/23a279e4-4148-4605-9b6e-db904e1a0efc/325657206_3358194654422806_4617852111326774986_n.jpeg Deep Dives - The Writers' Room: Visual Storytelling https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/cf067f18-4190-4a8d-8644-65a1f7f1ca2e/324722239_1592249094560652_9135750908799328144_n.jpeg Deep Dives - The Writers' Room: Visual Storytelling https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/a2567991-653e-42a7-92a6-2222c64095d9/325410490_1700813310376701_170395406864371424_n.jpeg Deep Dives - The Writers' Room: Visual Storytelling https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/bf873a29-7304-4568-a68e-d6098d4f2bb5/323290690_908158763555904_8310126474850905380_n.jpeg Deep Dives - The Writers' Room: Visual Storytelling https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/4a77eb79-a821-4c7c-b89e-8a67e001f6f2/325612506_550720633778781_4927794914704384614_n.jpeg Deep Dives - The Writers' Room: Visual Storytelling Our deep dive into writing and filmmaking culminated in the first annual Stardance Film Festival.

We could not exist without one another, for what is an “and” without a Yes?

(a reply to the Ands’ toast to the yeses) Let us acknowledge the virtues of And on this celebratory occasion, this sentimental supper, this flavorful feast. “And” goes beyond a conjunction. And is addition and innovation and creativity, and is an extension, and inclusion, and increasing, and adjoining. Without And we would be stuck in one state (a boring, stagnant, state.) Because of And, we have improv– but beyond improv, there are groups and families and countries, and communities. Because of And there are ideas, and solutions, and conclusions, and inspirations, and lists, and repetition, and repetition, and repetition, and… you get the point. And– on that note, where would “And” be without “ond” and “unda” and “endi” and “anda?” But– and excuse my betrayal of the one true conjunction, And– some believe they’re too good for And. And I find that quite silly and incorrect and unoriginal, and narrow-minded. The truth is, And is too marvelous, and too great, and too useful, and too quintessential to language and communication for those who believe themselves to be above And. Without And, we wouldn’t have beaches… Only snake sounds. And we wouldn’t have music… only bees. We wouldn’t have fingers… only HUH– which would probably be my reaction to not having my hands. But in all seriousness, who wants a meal with only one course? Who wants a movie without sound? Who wants Surf without Turf? Who wants night without moonlight? Who wants day without sunrays? Who wants a twinkie without cream? Who wants a language without innovation? Who wants a situation without evolution? Who wants to live without And? And on this celebratory occasion, this sentimental supper, this flavorful feast– We appreciate And. To And!

He performed Macbeth's Act 1, scene 7 soliloquy ("If it were done when ’tis done, then ’twere well / It were done quickly"), deliberately physicalizing every action conveyed by the language's imagery so that we could better see the character's struggle. He spoke of the actor's constant work to find their way to truth in performance, moments of true connection to the material. He then talked about the importance of memorizing poetry, then recited Poe's "The Raven" and taught us "To Make a Prairie" by Emily Dickinson (a work Hadley then animated—see below). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/0221eb4a-caa5-4ed9-83ce-da7ef31687d4/313173007_141991185244151_242210286180321412_n.jpeg Deep Dives - Shakespeare's Phoropter: Seeing Macbeth Brian Gunter has been an actor for over twenty-five years, performing with many regional theatres across the country, including Seattle Rep, Portland Center Stage, Cincinnati Playhouse-in-the-Park, Stages Repertory in Houston, the Alliance Theatre in Atlanta, Florida Studio Theatre, Berkeley Rep, San Jose Rep, the Goodspeed Opera House in Connecticut and Northlight Theatre in Chicago. He has also performed in Europe with Vienna's English Theatre, touring in Austria, Italy, and the Czech Republic.

On Halloween, the Star-Splitters donned costumes and sat around the “fire” to listen to three classic tales of humor and horror read by Sanda Moore Coleman: M.R. James's "A School Story," Saki's "Tobermory," and H.H. Jacobs's "The Monkey's Paw." https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/4bb5e6c9-a212-4393-813a-dc0d09a4237a/313416816_144088425034427_5969551192026842022_n.jpeg Deep Dives - Shakespeare's Phoropter: Seeing Macbeth We then had a delightful discussion about the themes and implications of the stories. As the conversation unfolded, I was struck by how the day displayed the Star-Splitter ethos of blending creativity, joy, analysis, and connectivity: Where else, I thought to myself, but during a Star-Splitter Halloween costume day could I hear The Once-ler from The Lorax insightfully question the merits of Pierre-Simon Laplace's 1814 thought experiment about determinism and free will, or listen to a turkey vulture that works for the sanitation department point out the influences of Hindu culture on a classic American short story? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/733a43f5-c3e8-456a-aebc-afef967edab6/312224402_144088441701092_1159208097382589414_n.jpeg Deep Dives - Shakespeare's Phoropter: Seeing Macbeth https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/f6f4b599-d690-42eb-9214-e340899ef886/313413097_144088408367762_5027523139861383581_n.jpeg Deep Dives - Shakespeare's Phoropter: Seeing Macbeth https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/f1f22698-352f-42aa-8d90-9ef08edc581c/Screen+Shot+2023-07-24+at+10.41.49+AM.png Deep Dives - Shakespeare's Phoropter: Seeing Macbeth https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/6d7328f1-169f-4bdb-a604-1667c843940a/Screen+Shot+2023-07-24+at+10.42.10+AM.png Deep Dives - Shakespeare's Phoropter: Seeing Macbeth https://www.starsplitteracademy.com/art-and-movement daily 0.75 2023-07-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629c3939c5c83923d705592a/ab7fe359-88dd-4831-8f12-d3daa01366d0/177225530_2842650779324192_8608409262677535601_n.jpg Art and Movement - Art and Movement meets every Friday morning.
