    Your proposal is intriguing and shows great potential. In fact, there has already been research into reconstituting what someone is thinking by monitoring their brain waves. You can read more by following this link: http://news.berkeley.edu/2011/09/22/brain-movies/. In addition, I feel that your machine can be expanded to be used in mental health treatment. Given it is hard to experience what someone else is thinking, the visual projection of their psyche will surely help.

Blogpost 8- Space and Art

Image
Space and art are two vastly different fields. With other technology, art can make sense, but with space, it seems more far-fetched. However, due to performer Guy Laliberté, it has become more intertwined.     If the name Guy Laliberté sounds familiar it is because he was the one who founded Cirque du Soleil and is a billionaire. In 2009 he went to the International Space Station or the ISS (Foust). He claimed to go because he wanted to reach people through an art perspective and he claims that he is "an artist, not a scientist" (Foust). He claims that it was seeing Apollo 11 that influenced him into deciding to go to space.  (Guy Laliberte)        Alan Bean, is the opposite, he was an astronaut who then became an artist and creates his art based off things in space. He was the lunar module pilot and the 4th person to walk on the moon. He has at least 50 paintings on the Earth and the Moon (Foust). Rather than studying space, he ha...

Art, Technology, and the Medical Field

Art and Technology in the Medical Field (Person using the Spirometer)  One example of medical technology and art is in something called spirometry. Spirometry is used test how strong your lungs are by measuring how much you inhale, exhale, and how fast you exhale (Mayo Clinic Staff). As someone who has asthma, when I visit my pediatrician back home I she makes me use this machine. How this works is that, while blowing,there is an animation on the screen to see your progress. It shows a tree covered with leaves, but as you blow the leaves away, you can see animals in the tree. After this, it shows a graph to the nurse monitoring the activity and states whether it was a good test or it needs to be done again. Usually with me, I do it about 7 to 10 times. Strangely, this actually makes the asthma a little worse and I clear my throat a lot more. Interesting how they use an animation with this machine so one can see their progress based off of how many animals they can see. ...

Blog 2- Math, Art and Science

Image
    (Jackson Pollack Fractal)               Surprisingly, math, art , and science are commonly intertwined as seen in fractals, the Golden Ratio, and in hyperbolic crochet. A fractal, “...is composed of a singular geometric pattern repeated thousands of times” (Ouellette). This is a mathematical idea that has been made into art and paintings as seen in the TV show White Collar. Fractals have also been seen in nature in the river and tree branches, and in the destruction caused by a hurricane (Ouellette). Next, the Golden ratio, or phi, is commonly used. This number is 1.618... and is seen in the Fibonacci sequence. The sequence starts with 1,1,2,3,5,8...and the higher up you go, the ratio goes closer to the Golden Ratio (mathisfun.org). This ratio creates a spiral that is seen in art to create correct propositions in paintings. This is also seen in nature with flower petals, flower seeds,  spiral galaxies, and ...
