Today’s busy schedule gave everyone a longing for sleep, even without the walking. Just like every other day, we started off with a lecture on Shapes from Rita and Gau. The lecture began with shapes of nanomaterials and their functions; and then moved into shapes in art. To start off, despite the common belief, atoms […]
YAY IT’S MIDTERM DAY! Personally, out of all the presentations, I believe mine is the best. Just kidding, I became really interested Lily and Eddie’s Nano Monuments. I feel that could be really useful for artists who want to study works of art in detail and want to be able to recreate them or with […]
A microscope is an instrument for viewing objects that are too small to be seen by the naked or unaided eye. The science of investigating small objects using such an instrument is called microscopy. The term microscopic means minute or very small, not visible with the eye unless aided by a microscope. Microscopes […]
Humanity has been excessively using fossil fuels to meet our energy needs in life. However these sources are limited and will eventually disappear. Therefore scientists have been trying to develop new, innovative methods to create and store energy. Such an example is solar energy. The sun exerts nine to ten times more energy than the […]
On Friday, we listened to a lecture on the career path Victoria took from wanting to be a fashion designer to doing different types of fine art and science. It was comforting to know that even adults change their minds about their career paths and that we don’t have to know what we want to do […]
Well, today was our first day visiting the many labs in CNSI and obtaining help on formatting our midterm presentation. However the entire day, just like many others, felt like a big blur. The most interesting thing today was during the daily intro when we watched the short video clip, “Imagining the 10th dimension“. The […]
Leonardo da Vinci was a genius who’s talents overpowered all of those around him. He was a great artist, philosopher, engineer and scientist. Most people know him for his art, but of true value was his science. To him, his astonishingly painted works of art were nothing to his preoccupation with Nature, and […]
Today was the first day I saw a direct connection between art and science. Regardless of the fact that it was the most obvious and straightforward correlation one we’ve witnessed so far, the message of this program has finally settled in my head. A skeptic in the beginning, I can now see that […]
Nano Bots for Cancer Nano bots have many different uses within the body. A very useful nano bot is the one they use to deliver cancer medication directly at the source of the cancer. This makes delivering the cancer medication much more effective. When one has cancer, most of the time they use a […]
Nano Silver Nano silver is used in everyday society to keep things clean and fresh. Nano silver is used in socks to keep them from not stinking as much. They also put in toothpaste to aid in plaque clean up! In my project we thought of putting nano silver inside casts to keep bacteria […]
