Pendulum Art

Fri, Jul 15, 2011

Materials: Paper, paint, yarn, plastic cup with a hole in the bottom

Activity: Use yarn to suspend the cup above some paper. Fill the cup with paint, and tap the cup. Watch the cup drip paint in a spiral pattern!

Research Questions: How does the size of hole in the cup affect the drawing? How high the cup is suspended? The consistency of the paint?
