    After watching “Proteus” please post a 200-word response on Moodle under the “Proteus Reflection” Turnitin spot, that addresses the following questions:

    • What did you learn from this film about radiolarians?
    • What aspects of Haeckel’s life and work interested you most?  Why?
    • Did this film make you think differently about the relationship between art and science?  Why and how?
    • Proteus discusses a number of intellectual, philosophical, and historical issues related to Haeckel’s inquiries.  Please describe the issues that you found most interesting, and share your own thoughts on these issues.
    • There is deep conceptual significance “baked into” the act of studying and reproducing the radiolarians recorded in Haeckel’s drawings.  Your projects are in dialogue with complex natural phenomena that are interwoven with history, intellectual paradigms, and Haeckel’s life.  From your perspective, what are the conceptual implications of creating radiolarian sculptures based on Haeckel’s drawings?
    • Please describe anything else about this film that you found interesting, surprising, or thought provoking.

    This assignment will count toward your Research Materials grade.

  • Core assumptions about art making

    #1: Art is about more than making aesthetically interesting forms. Sculpture is an intellectual activity!

    #2: Time, skill, energy in MAKING… leads to value, depth, appreciation in VIEWING. Craftspersonship is critical!
