Fringe: From Concept to Collaboration to Creation is a sponsored project TDS with major support from the non-profit The Pasadena Art Alliance. The course is designed around the collaboration between students, the conceptualization of ideas and execution of mixed media artwork. The objects and images produced will loosely relate or include some component of the concept of "fringe". The first two weeks of study will be spent determining the ideas and parameters of the project and forming student teams. Class discussions and assignments will center on direction, communication, problem-solving, collaboration and the roles of pairs. Teams can create mood boards, proposals, and research resources from traditional and historical to the contemporary forms of creative license. Students will take the lead in scheduling, following up and meeting deadlines with teammates and vendors. The culmination of the course will be an exhibition and gala opening by The Pasadena Art Alliance. Students and their collaboration partners will be invited to the event. The PAA will provide a small stipend for production costs and materials for work created.
