I travel to teach drawing and painting. Each year more art and music programs are eliminated from the public school curriculum. It is important to keep creative thinking alive and well. When traveling, I spend time on city streets and mountain trails creating polyhedra (solid figures with many plane faces, typically more than six) or triflexigons (folded paper figures that can be flexed along its folds to expose various arrangements of its faces) illustrated with line drawings of the surrounding landscape, buildings or structures. I give the illustrated constructions to interested spectators along with infromation on how to create their own geometric wonders.
I would like to put together an instructional ebook that includes some of the video footage shot while illustrating and creating the forms in public venues world wide. The ebook will be made available, without cost, to the public through my website. In order to accomplish this, I need $1,000 to cover production time. Any additional funds will be put toward school presentations. For every additional $500 raised, I will schedule a free StreetSmart Geometry workshop for teachers and/or students in schools close to where I travel to teach.
