Nano+Bio+Art

Today Sara and Pinar gave a lecture on vision and optical illusions. We see colors by four steps. First the source of light gives out light light which ranges from blue to red in the visible spectrum. White light hits and object for example an apple. The apple absorbs all colors except red, therefore leaving a [...]

This afternoon Adam lectured us on bioluminescence, which is the product and emission of light by a living organism as the result of a chemical reaction durring which chemical energy is converted to light energy. Bioluminescence is a naturally occurring form of chemiluminescence where energy is released by a chemical reaction in the form of light emission [...]

Mattia and Rita from group X gave us a lecture on Bio Waves and the comparison between human and animal use. Humans use sound, color, and smell. Sounds affect humans through music and change thier emotions. Mothers also are more likely to hear their children then anyone else. Colors are used to change our feelings also [...]

The desert exibit  was one of my favorite exibit because it had the heat sensing camera. The turtle and the ants were my favorite parts. There [...]

Today in the morning we got a lecture from Sarah and Pinar on Optics. The optics seen by the human eye all all created by the electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic spectrum are wave from radio waves to gamma waves. The one group seen by most human eyes is the visible light which ranges from 400-700Hz which [...]

In the afternoon we met in the presentation space and Mattia gave us a lecture on the sound of complexity. He used a the quote “render visbile invisible forces” from G. Delevze. This quote is an attempt to make audible and visible dynomics for things that are unheard and invisible. One example of such a force is brain [...]
