The Cloud Foundation

Description

• The HistoryFrom Science to Art: David and Aurélie Edwards created the Cloud Foundation in 1999 to provide opportunities for urban teens to create with passion across cultural boundaries, as they have since their own youths. Scientists, the Edwards' chose to work through the arts, recognizing that very often, before ideas grow as science, they emerge as art the most natural language of youth. From Art to ScienceIn 2007, with the opening of Le Laboratoire (www.lelaboratoire.org) in Paris, France, and with the publication of Davids essay Artscience: Creativity in the Post-Google Generation (Harvard University Press 2008), David and Aurélie Edwards began to work with fellow Cloud Foundation board members to create a network of experimental idea development organizations, an international culture lab, through which opportunities for urban teens' artistic creation and expression might grow even more beneficially across cultural boundaries. Integral to this reflection was the experience of the Idea Translation Lab at Harvard (www.ideatranslationlab.org), created by David Edwards to accelerate student learning through idea creation and development, a process David has named idea translation. With the launch of the ArtScience Prize in January 2009, the Cloud Foundation enters its second decade as a core partner of the Culture Lab, an international network of creative organizations which aims to expand access to the benefits of artistic creation and expression in Boston and other cities of the world.The Boston 100k ArtScience Innovation PrizeThe Boston 100K ArtScience Innovation Prize is an urban teen empowerment program of the Culture Lab, an international network of creator organizations founded by the writer and creator David Edwards. The ArtScience Prize provides exciting opportunities for urban teens to learn through passionate development of breakthrough ideas in the arts and design, at the frontier of scientific knowledge.
