To come up with our final idea we brainstormed multiple ideas and then whittled down the ideas until we got to one final idea. Our idea was nanobots that make microtears in a persons muscles to promote muscle growth. We took the idea to the counselors at C(n)SI who recommended that we make it more […]
Lily thought of the idea of nano monuments. She researched famous monuments and statues as well as shapes/structures. She designed how the structure would look on the outside and the mock up photos to how the pieces would look in a museum, on a desk, ect. She also made the Powerpoint. Edward created the inner […]
07.16.09 UCLA – Today is the last evening we will share with UCLA. I hope to return here later to continue learning once out of high school. The campus is one that is extremely welcoming. The proffesors are extremely intellegent and they all welcome student help and any question you might ever have. Overall this […]
PLASMA! Today we visited the UCLA plasma labs. The first machine we saw teased us. No one knew too much about the fourth state of matter but I assumed that it moved like a viscus liquid. It didn’t. we saw “flashes” of plasma in the first machine each flash lasted only milliseconds and was being […]
The morning started off with a talk about the new innovations arising in the technological world. There was a board game, controlled by your mind, simply by concentrating. The cars that we were showed were so incredibly well modeled and innovative. One rotated around so it was easier to parallel […]
Today was our last real day in the SciArt summer program and looking back, I realize it was such an unforgettable experience. Upon arrival at the program, I had no idea what to expect. The thing that really attracted me to UCLA was having an interest in both science and art. In this program we […]
the getty museum is one of the most respected art museums in California. I was able to view the getty’s gorgeous out-door garden. The garden is arranged very geometrically. The circular design is futuristic and intriguing. The hedges are arrayed in concentric circles with breaks and extra lines like a maze. There are three surrounded […]
Overall in this course i learned how closely art and science are connected. People never usually consider this true, but after this course i can now see. What people usually connect is the coralation between science and technology, but now i can connect the element of art into it also. I learned that every time […]
For our midterm we came up with multiple ideas. We whittled them down to one. Our idea was that we would create robots that could enter a persons musculature and constantly make micro tears in the muscles to increase muscle mass steadily without the need to work out. From this idea we came up with […]
Today we watched the butterfly effect. The movie was all about cause and effect relationships resulting in ways that are unexpected or startling. These effects are shown in the life of the main character who has the power to go back in time and change his past. Consequently he has the power to change the […]
