Examples in everyday life. Where do you see evidence of these patterns? Post a photo of patterns that you find at home or school that might relate to the patterns previously discussed. Finding these patterns as they currently exist will help me understand their evolution and their connection to the more contemporary work of Reid. Thanks for your help.

Note Under Office Door


I arrived at work today to find the this note slipped under my door in a manilla envelope. I am a little uneasy about it. It had no return address and I will not be able to go to MICA to check this out for a while. If you are there at MICA and could check this out for me, I would appreciate it. Please let me know what you find in the comment section below.

Strange Package

A strange package arrived on my desk today. I had no time to open it. I took it with me to my speaking engagement at the Maryland Institute College of Art. While there is I stopped by the Art Education office to see my old friend Karen Carroll, Dean of the Center for Art Education. We talked for so long that I left the package sitting on the floor in her office. I called and talked to the Administrative assistant Katie and she said she would leave it in the resource room. I am not scheduled to be back in Maryland for sometime, so I guess it will have to wait. However, if you find it would you please open it and post its contents in the comment section?
