Basic Elements, made up of performance artists Janice Pomer and Barry Prophet, engaged students in a number of activities. They included making hang- ing xylophones from copper tubing, string, and wooden mallets the students fashioned themselves; and making wind chimes made from reeds, snare wire and washers.
