Synanthrope Museum
Here is the presentation that we shared with the class. After brainstorming Jess and I got to do the urban imagination exercise for our Synanthrope Museum. Here are my drawings: On this Saturday I did the Audio Walk by Janet Cardiff – HER LONG BLACK HAIR (2004). The experience was extremely powerful. Around the central
Lab 3: Analog amplifiers and operational amplifiers
The following schematics describe the circuit of the amplifier. Since we could not find a 1K resistor we end up using a 1.5K resistor and as Eric said it worked By attaching
TEAM GLAM: CONCEPT & PLAN
Team GLAM Gal Nissim Lindsey Johnson Angela Perrone Michelle Hessel Concept: Current Times (working title) Social commentary on current times where people are in a physical world yet trapped in the digital world, where they only communicate digitally. How this translates to the windows: Window 1 Standard: Sterile-ish, blah office scene. Live person sits at desk in
Nature and the City – Final Project Proposal
The issue that Jess and I would like to deal with is the relationship between human and the urban nature. We were the ones to created the city as our habitat but it does not make us the only ones to own it.
Creative solutions to social problems
This week I run across several different creative solutions to social issues. The following video tells the story of a man how realized the distractive effect plastic has on our environment What led him to invent eatable spoons. However, this solution seems too expensive than plastic spoons in the short run, of corse that in
Visit at AMNH – american museum of natural history
Visiting at the AMNH was a fascinating experience mainly because it was the first time I saw the behind the scenes of a museum. The AMNH is endless therefore I chose to focus on the Crocs exhibition in this trip report. The exhibition space is divided in such way that it leads you in a
An Urban Pain Point
My first urban pain point is the way we alienated nature from us. Nature keeps coming closer and closer and we have created urban wildlife in the cities we live in. However, when we run across one of the other tenants of the city, we see them as pests. The following drawing depicts an ideal world in
LM555 – 555 LED Flasher Circuit
Today we build a LED Flasher circuit. We created blinking LED without using Arduino, by using the capacitor properties (charged and discharged) and an “and gate”. The switch distinguished between voltage differences, if there is no difference (both High) so it is Low and if one is Low and the other one is High the output is High.
