Around the third contact class with the particpating Albany Senior High School students of the Cretaive Pathways Project, we possed a couple of really big questions to the group What project? What do we need to consider?

Explaining that the resources we have and the time available to deliver of the project are major challenges, we asked for the students to think creatively about the content of their final exhibition.

This image from the exhibition currently on show at the Vancouver Arts Centre, is a great example. The group identified that a loud ticking clock was important to the “My Room” section. We discussed finding the right clock which had a loud enough tick tock, we thought through the logistics of adding a speaker with a recording of a clock or how we could add a microphone to the clock to amplify the sound in the space. All were difficult to achieve with the limited resources and time.

This is the elegant and effective solution, which is the students own work.
