iLand’s 2012 iLAB Resident Update – Higher E.D.

This post comes to you from Cultura21

On Sunday September 23 from 11 am – 5 pm, the public can join Higher E+D  (Ecology and Dance) to gather aerial data with kites/balloons and field data through dancing bodies.

Meet Lailye Weidman, Jess Einhorn and Liz Barry at Governor’s Island and travel to Lower Manhattan (NY, USA) with Higher E+D for a day of kite-mapping and dance based weather observation.  Wear clothes for moving (and possibly getting dirty), bring plenty of water, a notebook and pack a picnic lunch. Contact HigherED12 [at] gmail [dot] com for more information.    

The ferry to Governor’s Island runs every half hour from Brooklyn and Manhattan. http://govisland.com
