This document provides instructions for an art exercise involving aggregating multiples of a simple, inexpensive object to create an unexpected form. Participants are asked to use as many multiples as possible, only adding glue, trying not to subtract anything, and exploring eccentric connections. It then lists examples of materials used by different artists, such as Styrofoam cups, pencils, toothpicks, spaghetti, cereal boxes, finger-nail clippings, Doritos, eggs, and socks.

1. First one-week exercise
Using multiples of a simple, inexpensive, recognizable object in multiple, create an
unexpected, dynamic form.
-This “aggregate” should employ as may multiples of your ‘subject’ as possible.
-Only glue can be added
-Try not to subtract anything
-When possible, explore connection/reconnection with eccentric and unexpected
angles
