![]() ![]() Students have the opportunity to experience this versatile and unique level of discovery at UC Santa Cruz, which has the UC system’s only bronze art foundry. Students can also use 3D printers in the Arts Division to generate patterns from corn-based filament and cast into bronze, a recyclable, copper-based alloy that has a long history of being made into fine art during times of peace and melted down and made into weapons during times of war, and so on. Students discover an elegance and power in this almost “alchemical” casting process, by using positive/negative mold-making techniques to turn clay into wax, and to turn that wax into bronze through the “lost-wax” ( cere perdue) method of casting, manifesting their unique artistic visions. In this era of the “maker” phenomenon, UC Santa Cruz art students have an opportunity through the foundry program to fully explore the expression of their ideas in tangible form through proper technique, fire, and brute force. The Arts Division also now includes an Open Lab program to promote collaborative research between the disciplines of arts and sciences on campus. Much like UC Santa Cruz itself, discovery and the blending of innovative technologies form the foundation of the only bronze art program in the UC system, begun in the late ’60s by Art Professor Doyle Foreman. Here at UC Santa Cruz, we’re still practicing the ancient art of bronze casting-appropriate for a campus that formed during a period of civil, cultural, and “Space Age” transformation. This was the level of radical change at the dawn of the Bronze Age, a “disruptive” period about 5,000 years ago that nearly simultaneously saw the invention of the wheel, the first written languages, sailing, the abacus, year-round agriculture (allowing urban civilization and an intellectual class), and its namesake: the first alloyed metallurgy on a broad scale. Imagine a revolution in communication, social media, data storage, augmented human intelligence, computers, advanced calculation, transportation, globalization, tools, art, and technology. To this end, imagine a technological “boom” that changes everything all over the world, almost at once. Real Ingredients - We use pomegranate, cane sugar and orange blossom water to make a natural grenadine syrup we're proud of.As a practicing studio artist and teacher, I approach new subjects by placing them within their greater context. Shirley Temples are often served to children dining with adults in lieu of real cocktails, as are the similar Roy Rogers and Arnold Palmer. Modern Shirley Temple recipes may substitute lemon-lime soda or lemonade and sometimes orange juice in part, or in whole. Grenadine Cocktail Syrup is well known inside a Shirley Temple is a non-alcoholic mixed drink traditionally made with ginger ale and a splash of grenadine, garnished with a maraschino cherry. It is not related to the Grenadines archipelago, which takes its name from Grenada, which is named Granada, Spain. Grenadine was originally prepared from pomegranate juice, sugar, and water. The name “grenadine” originates from the French word grenade which means pomegranate, from Latin grānātum “seeded”. This home-bartender staple will get poured over and over again, probably better get two! Grenadine syrup has been used as the primary inspiration for many cocktails and sweet-treat mocktails. ![]() Shirley Temple’s favorite companion and a bartender’s go-to add-in.
