Open Dream takes on the Laws of Motion
1. An object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object in uniform motion tends to stay in uniform motion unless acted upon by an outside force.
2. The change in velocity (acceleration) with which an object moves is directly proportional to the magnitude of force applied to the object and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
3. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Fifth grade science. Remember?
Isaac Newton was an amazing thinker. Not only did he create calculus, discover properties of light and optics, run the British mint, and prove the laws of motion, he was largely responsible for ushering in the era of scientific method and proof.
What would our world be without him? Likely, very different.
What does this have to do with Open Dream Ensemble? Well, Isaac Newton and his Laws of Motion are the basis of our upcoming webseries. In a seven-episode series, Open Dream Ensemble will examine the Laws of Motion in the only way we know how -- through dance, drama, and music... and time travel -- of course.
More to come in later posts....
