Collaboration Canvas


The platform PLAYground has a feature called “remix” where the user has the option to collaborate on someone else canvas.
Initially I thought that when using the “remix” feature one would modify someone else’s canvas.
 So I gave it a try for the purpose of my assignment hoping not to get any mixed feelings by intruding on someone else work.

 After more than two attempts my remix did not work as I intended to do so. I thought I was doing something wrong, so I went back to the welcome page of PLAYground to reassure myself on how to create a remix.

I then learned that a remix is very practical; you do not add your collaborative work onto someone else’s original work but on a replica of that canvas.

I decided to collaborate on an interdisciplinary instruction with my "Color Theory" to “Music Form”

In my remix I included pictures of Wassily Kandinsky, which is the perfect example for an interdisciplinary lesson. Kandinsky was an abstract Russian artist who was inspired by music, and who thought that combinations of colors produce vibrational frequencies, akin to chords played on a piano.
Additionally I added some videos that explain how color and music have much in common. 
When doing my search of elements for my remix canvas I found a video that complimented my original canvas so I added it as supplementary information. The video is called "Using the color wheel"
