The Sci | Art 2009 program was a very interesting new experience for me. I’d never gone to this kind of summer program and especially coming alone for two weeks on a college campus. I wasn’t sure what to expect or for that matter how much we would do and see. But they had everything planned […]
Well, today is the last day before our final projects, a culmination of all we’ve learned and our collaboration. Everyone is hard at work in preparation. It was disappointing to go to bed sick and wake up sicker. But anyways, this has been an eye-opening experience and amazing opportunity for me. I’ve been made aware […]
Today is our final day of preparation. The amount of laptops in the room is taunting me. The clicks of the keyboard are maddening. My eyes are glazed over. For the past three hours, I haven’t talked to a soul… unless you count my curses directed to the laptop in front of me. My mind […]
Our project is finally almost finished. We worked for a long time and went through many little fights before getting to where we are now. We will do a little more work later tonight still. I think it is turning out quiet well. We are even making a rap song using Logic Pro on my […]
For this day, I am going to talk about art. I have with me this awesome art magazine named Juxtapoz Magazine and I would highly recommend it for anybody who wants to keep up to date with the most awesome contemporary art from around the world. I happen to have with my a magazine that […]
This day was simply really cool. Tyler Adams had the best lecture so far and the anechoic chamber expanded my mind. As I sat through this day, I felt as if something inside me was swelling up with this hope, this wonderful excitement about how sounds can change my existence in the world. Now I […]
Today was started off with an interesting lecture about morals and consequences of science and nanotechnology. This was very interesting because it discussed how nano technology and modern science can be used in a positive way or in a negative way. For example nuclear energy can be used to power homes and buildings, but it can […]
Today my group and I realized that there were a few unanswered questions regarding the intricacies of our quantum dot panel. For example, deciding the frequencies used in the sounds emitted was difficult because generally with wavelengths (in meters) in the 1.0 X 10^-7, these frequencies are in the range of 1.o X 10^14 , […]
I new idea came to my mind when we made the magnetic liquid the other day. I was thinking that if we had the resources and the tools, and if it did not hurt the enviroment, we could make a whole lake out of the magnetic liquid. So after this I was thinkin we could […]
Today we went into an anechoic chamber. This is a room where each wall, the floor, and the ceiling is covered with foam. The foam makes the room extremely quiet. Once you are in there, it is dark and silent. But it is not really silent. You can hear a buzz from the air in […]
