Bike Provocation
BIKES! Who uses them? How do they work? How have they changed the world?
Throughout this project, students will examine bikes closely through art. They will deconstruct the bikes in search of understanding. They'll identify simple machines that make them go, force them to stop, and keep them in a straight line. Students will look at individual parts, create something new, and finally attempt to re-build the bike to it's former glory.
