About this programme:

What kind of creative energy will you unleash? 

Let Len Lye: Energies ignite your student’s creative spirit and sense of exploration and fun. Len Lye’s cross-disciplinary approach reveals his interest in energy in all its forms – from the microbial metabolisms of early life on Earth to the quantum entanglements of particles in space, and the ocean of electromagnetic waves surrounding us.  

How many hats can one person wear? Writer, photographer, film maker, sculptor, painter dancer, doodler, all offer great possibilities for year-end fun and for ākonga to experience and engage in a variety of ways including hands-on activities.  

Len Lye said “I’m interested in the business of energy, and getting a feeling of zizz.” This experience is your students’ chance to feel that zizz. Contact the Mīharo team to hear more about how we can tailor this experience for you.
