As a faculty member Wichita State University’s College of Engineering (WSU), I worked with students to create and install a mini-golf hole as part of FIGMENT at Governor’s Island, NY in 2010. I also gave the keynote address that year for FIGMENT’s public art opening.
WSU’s mini-golf hole was chosen from a juried selection. Our hole contained multiple interactive elements, all powered by sustainable energy (wind and solar). As part of the mini-golf course it was well-received, entertaining over 250,000 visitors through the course of the summer.
