CS241: Topics for the Week of September 10, 2007

• Please join us on Tuesday, September 11, 2007, 7:30 PM in the Hatfield Room, Hatfield Library

  The five students awarded Keck Summer Research grants, Lacy Gillham, Tatyana Zadniprovskiy, Allison Martin, Lauren Lathrop and Susannah Kelly, will be presenting the fruits of their research and talking about their experiments and discoveries in exploring ways that technology can be used in the creation of art. From improvisational music and dance to DVD, from computer modelling to sculpture, from a jumble of building materials to digital video: you are cordially invited to see and hear how these talented and creative students have harnessed the power of technology to the demands of art.
