Love makes the world go round. Build a machine that uses love to spin a globe.
Item 79 – Under-Appreciated Insect Sculpture
The insect world is under-appreciated, but they are tiny works of art. Create a realistic-looking, oversized detailed sculpture of an underappreciated arachnid or insect out of bread, ice, or marble, the way Michaelangelo would have done if he’d had the time. You may not make a dragonfly, ladybug, butterfly or any other insect that has already been socially normalized as “cute”. – Inspired by Kat F.
Item 76 – Insect Hobby
Not all insects aspire to just be insects. Some have ambitions and hobbies! Without harming it, get a live fly, beetle, roach or other insect to sit on a sheet of paper and doodle an environment around it showing it at its job or hobby.
Item 74 – Stop-Motion Heimlich
(Up to 30 seconds) A stop-motion animation of a life-saving first aid technique (CPR, the Heimlich maneuver, etc.) featuring dolls or puppets in crisis.
Item 70 – Jensen Ackles Skittles Pie
Over the years, Jensen Ackles has been depicted in Skittles, but we all know his character Dean loves pie. Let’s do a crossover: Bake a Skittles pie with a portrait of Jensen baked into the upper crust. Lattice work in the top crust should allow you to see the Skittles inside behind Jensen. Here’s some inspiration.
Item 69 – Firefighter Relaxation Station
Nobody’s more devoted or grateful to firefighters than we are, except maybe a dalmatian. Or Smokey the Bear. Go to your local fire station dressed as a dalmatian or Smokey the Bear and create a relaxation station to thank them for their work. You can bring treats, offer mani-pedis, foot or shoulder massages, aromatherapy… You get the idea.
Item 68 – Jared Padalecki Toasted Marshmallow
I’m not saying Jared Padalecki is a big softie, but here’s a portrait of him toasted onto a marshmallow. Just the way it should be.
Item 77 – GISH Patch with Spacesuit
An actual space suit with a GISH 2019 patch on it next to the national flag.
Item 59 – Cement your Own Joy
Cement your own joy.
Item 58 – Conquer a Child’s Fear
Ask a child aged 5 or under what their greatest fear is. Create and photograph or film a scene of you and them conquering this fear together. – Kristin L.
