Title: Art and Science: by Kip Kuhn and Russ Hopkins
Overview: The challenge for students is to create a science lab that produces art. In particular, for our Chemistry of Photography class, can students create a non-darkroom chemistry lab that other educators can use and adapt?
Big Idea(s): Education, Creativity, Science, Art
Essential Question: Can a science experiment produce art?
Guiding Questions:
Can we create a non-darkroom photographic chemistry for education and other schools?
What chemicals will interact negatively with the "photographic" process?
What photographic processes do not require the use of a darkroom?
What chemicals are needed to develop photographs?
Guiding Activities:
Basic chemistry lab procedures and activities.
Basic photographic handling procedures.
Material management
Brainstorming
Periodic Table
Chemical Equations
