From Laura McGough's March 2015 Sculpture Magazine Review:

Timothy Noble’s The Semi-Automatic Chalkboard, a robotically controlled drawing machine, offers a timely consideration of artistic labor. Using open-source software and servo motors to run coded motions, the chalkboard etches out reproductions of sketches created by Charles E. Burchfield in preparation for the oil painting Grain Elevators (1932–38). Working much like an old daisy printer, the automated machine interprets each original drawing by methodically positioning and repositioning itself across the blackboard as it prepares to lay down another stroke.  ]]> From Laura McGough's March 2015 Sculpture Magazine Review: Timothy Noble’s The Semi-Automatic Chalkboard, a robotically controlled drawing machine, offers a timely consideration of artistic... http://sculpture.org/documents/scmag15/mar_15/mar15_reviews.shtml https://my3.my.umbc.edu/api/v0/pixel/news/51651/guest@my.umbc.edu/2bf101390159ec1cd7049c422c582353/api/pixel 3-d imda magazine mfa noble open printing program robot sculpture software source tim CIRCA https://my3.my.umbc.edu/groups/circa https://assets1-my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/c82b5d452621302114ac215d91fcf846/xsmall.png?1762367739 https://assets3-my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/c82b5d452621302114ac215d91fcf846/original.jpg?1762367739 https://assets1-my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/c82b5d452621302114ac215d91fcf846/xxlarge.png?1762367739 https://assets1-my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/c82b5d452621302114ac215d91fcf846/xlarge.png?1762367739 https://assets3-my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/c82b5d452621302114ac215d91fcf846/large.png?1762367739 https://assets4-my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/c82b5d452621302114ac215d91fcf846/medium.png?1762367739 https://assets4-my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/c82b5d452621302114ac215d91fcf846/small.png?1762367739 https://assets1-my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/c82b5d452621302114ac215d91fcf846/xsmall.png?1762367739 https://assets3-my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/c82b5d452621302114ac215d91fcf846/xxsmall.png?1762367739 CIRCA https://assets2-my.umbc.edu/system/shared/thumbnails/news/000/051/651/f13573e13bf730fdfd555c1e8516d251/xxlarge.jpg?1430408593 https://assets3-my.umbc.edu/system/shared/thumbnails/news/000/051/651/f13573e13bf730fdfd555c1e8516d251/xlarge.jpg?1430408593 https://assets1-my.umbc.edu/system/shared/thumbnails/news/000/051/651/f13573e13bf730fdfd555c1e8516d251/large.jpg?1430408593 https://assets2-my.umbc.edu/system/shared/thumbnails/news/000/051/651/f13573e13bf730fdfd555c1e8516d251/medium.jpg?1430408593 https://assets3-my.umbc.edu/system/shared/thumbnails/news/000/051/651/f13573e13bf730fdfd555c1e8516d251/small.jpg?1430408593 https://assets2-my.umbc.edu/system/shared/thumbnails/news/000/051/651/f13573e13bf730fdfd555c1e8516d251/xsmall.jpg?1430408593 https://assets2-my.umbc.edu/system/shared/thumbnails/news/000/051/651/f13573e13bf730fdfd555c1e8516d251/xxsmall.jpg?1430408593 1 0 true Thu, 30 Apr 2015 11:46:47 -0400 INDS is Offering INDS 330-Ways of Knowing as a Summer Course Interdisciplinary approach to complex issues facing us today

WAYS of KNOWING - INDS 330

An interdisciplinary approach to complex issues facing us today



Summer Session II – Six Weeks 

Class Number - 2556

July 6th – August 14th

Mondays, 1:00 – 4:10 PM

The critical challenges of our time involve a tangle of disciplines: from pollution to crime, cancer to climate change. Tackling those problems requires knowing how to effectively integrate different areas of knowledge.


“Ways of Knowing” provides interesting, fun and wide-ranging experiences in constructing big-picture analysis of the important issues facing us today.  Using real-world examples, you’ll practice creative thinking and problem solving by learning how to integrate complex information across multiple disciplines.  It helps students transform the way they think, learn and write.

Professor and philosopher Jim Thomas, who was previously featured in the Baltimore Sun as “one of the most popular college instructors in the nation” teaches the summer course.  He is known for “pushing students to laugh and think” and INDS 330 will be no exception.

"Baltimore Cyclist Catches Riots In Action" From Bicycling Magazine, full article available here: http://www.bicycling.com/culture/news/baltimore-cyclist-catches-riots-action


Kate Drabinski rides around Baltimore everyday and writes about what she sees on her blog What I Saw Riding My Bike Around Town Today. 

On Monday, her wanderings led her to a standoff between Baltimore police and high-school students from Coppin Academy.

Police had gathered outside the Mondawmin Mall, which is adjacent to the school and earlier in the day had been the site of looting following the funeral of Freddie Gray, the 25-year-old black man who died in police custody on April 19.

Drabinski watched as students crossed the mall parking lot to board busses that would take them home. Some kids started taking selfies with the cops and goofing around, she says, and the situation escalated.  Drabinski backed away as police donned riot gear and moved to break up the crowd. “The cops were so heavily armed, it’s scary to think about what they were going to do, and I didn’t want to be in the way,” she said. 

She managed to grab one shot of the chaos with her iPhone but didn’t fully understand its significance until she arrived home and learned of the extent of the riots. “Taking the picture and writing about it helped me understand the difference between what was going on in the news and what I saw. It helped me understand how escalation can happen,” she said.

Drabinski, who teaches gender and women’s studies at the University of Maryland Baltimore County, rides daily because she believes it gives her a better sense of a community—its achievements, problems, and shifting moods. So she was not surprised by Baltimore’s riots. “One of the things that I’ve learned from riding a bike around the city all the time is that you can see the things that people are organizing about. Ride your bike and keep your eyes open; you’ll see a lot more.”
