DOMAINS

Domains at Beam Camp include in-depth, hands-on, discovery activities in the arts, performance, sciences, athletic or cultural fields (or mash-up of several fields). In the first and second week of the session,  Beam Campers choose to explore a new Domain, exploring disciplines, techniques, or projects in small groups. Domains pursue learning, making, and experimenting with personal goals and products in mind, rather than the Beam Camp Big Project's single gigantic one.

Past Domains include: Terrariums, Long Distance Swimming, Japanese Bag Design, Weaving in the Woods: Primitive Technology & Fresh Ideas, To know or not to know, expert or not, Robot Fight, Beam Cover Band: Experimental Renditions of Popular Songs, Xylophone, Art History Selfie, Getting Lost: an active guide to the unknown, Plant Allies: folklore and ancient craft, Robot Catwalk, Beating Beam Vol. 2: Sampling and Beats, Sound effect board, The Moth, Knitting, Rice Paper Lantern, Mechanical Flip Books, Beloved Imagination: Surrealist Video Adventures, Diorama Videos: 1,000 yrs future, Hanging Tough: Postmodern Lounging Part IV, Shibori, Large-scale Mural, Archery, Screenprinting, Water Windchimes, Candle Sculptures, Rockets, Site Specific Performance, 1,000 yrs Past, Soccer, Weaving, Pie Making, Baton Twirling.
