Hello all!
 
We have started working with a local organization that is involved with
creative writing in local high schools.  Their classes are working a lot
on perception, on how artists, poets, and scientists see the world -
both similarly and differently...As part of the program, groups will be
coming into COSI and dealing with a subset of our exhibits that explore
human perception ~ they will also be going to the Toledo Museum of Art
and exploring different periods of visual art, looking at differences in
how they portray the world.
 
Who out there is working with creative writing/literature/poetry groups
as part of their museum programming?  What kinds of interactions are you
doing?  I'm trying to get a sense of what's already been/being done...
 
And on an entirely separate note, to anyone who does demonstrations of
topology in their museums

Thanks!
