"several people have done these in really creative ways like that person who met their dog in the middle." WHAT. 2nd time I have been featured/mentioned in an Art Assignment video!! I am SO glad I participated in this challenge, I have never felt so creatively encouraged and supported, thank you Sarah and John Green, you have no idea how much this means to me!!! I will definitely be participating in further challenges!

I never think like "oh these people are all going to die" but I do frequently boggle at the fact that all these people are all going seperate places. Like even people on the same flight, some will drive away, others will get on other flights or on trains and we all have been motivated to travel but like what motivates us is so unique... it reminds me that every other person has their own life and all of their friends have their own lives and so on and so on... so much time has been lived through.

When I travel I think about eating a lot. When I look around at people most of them will eat at some stage in the journey and pretty much everyone at least has a drink. It makes me realise that, even though their lives are complex and crazy and everything, we're basically still just animals with a basic need for nutrition and energy. Despite how interesting and different we are as a species, despite how we think of ourselves as so seperate from nature, we're just doing the same job of turning calories into life, you know? Sorry if that's uninteresting or makes no sense but it means something to me.

I don't really have an intention of participating in these assignments, but I'm very involved in watching them and tracking the art assignment tags on Tumblr. The art projects, even the ones which aren't *necessarily* "art" while they're being performed, certainly *become* art in the process of the creative expression that brings them to the internet where I can see it.

What Sarah said about art reminds me of how I feel about classical music (and opera). So many people dismiss centuries of music out of hand, and it always makes me sad and a little angry. If you don't like it, that's fine, but please don't diss it. There are so many different types of works, encompassing all different moods, narratives, and styles, that I'm sure everyone could find something that they'd like. Just like Sarah said, children love classical music if they're exposed to it. They have no preconceived notions. A teacher I used to work with played the opera "Amahl and the Night Visitors" for her fourth-grade students every year. They loved it! My middle school and high school students remembered it fondly. They loved it because they didn't automatically think that opera was uncool, and also because the teacher took time to really get into the story.

On the question related to how to teach children about art, I grew up singing (on my own, later in lessons) but my mom was also the head of a charity that helped support local artists & galleries so I went to art & visually-oriented history & science museums constantly when I was a child. While I'm not talented in relation to visual art, I constantly appreciate my mother's efforts to teach me how to approach visual beauty & expression in a different way, & it actually helped me figure out how to audibly express myself in a different manner from other people.

In which John Green popped up on every international watchlist. BUT HE'S SO RIGHT. Not just at airports, but just walking around crowded places. It's morbid, sure. But it's also fascinating. These people will all be dead in 60-100 years. And there will still be other people, and life will continue. Technology will still advance, people will still fall in love, and Doctor Who will be on season 73. It's mind boggling and yet, at the same time, so simple and, in its own way, reassuring.

Re: kids and art. My mum had a whole bunch of cheap hard back books dedicated to a single artist, like El Greco, Constable and Turner. By the nature of them being art books they were quite tall as books go and had to go on the larger bottom shelf of the book case. So for me as a toddler, I would often pull these out to look at as an alternative to the regular kid's picture book.

I use the term "art park" to describe places outside that have art, and there are many different kinds. Sculpture parks are one kind, but to me those can be a little dry. In Indianapolis, we have 100 Acres: www.imamuseum.org/visit/100acres, as well as things like the Cultural Trail: indyculturaltrail.org/ (not an art park but a great way to see art in public space). Where do you live?

The Art Assignment Thank you; I know exactly what you're describing. I'm in CT, and while I don't know of any in the immediate area without hopping a train to NYC or Boston (which isn't a bad idea), your description helped me realize what I'm looking for. I think that's a fantastic idea, for kids or adults. My daughter gets tons of art exposure thanks to my mom, who happens to be an art teacher, but I always wonder what I could do more to help her grow creatively.
