Princeton: Art, Democracy, and Debate

Filed under: art — Wendy @ 5:02 pm

During a too-brief visit to Princeton, I got to see the terrific Art of Science exhibit. Gathered in a competition for “imagery produced in the course of research or incorporating tools and concepts from science,” the exhibit collected images from archaeology through zoology. They make fascinating art and engaging science.

The image at left, from Anton Darhuber, Benjamin Fischer, and Sandra Troian in the Department of Electrical Engineering, Microfluidic Research and Engineering Laboratory, “illustrates evolving dynamical patterns formed during the spreading of a surface-active substance (surfactant) over a thin liquid film on a silicon wafer.” Who knew? (Note, images in the gallery may be blocked by a default Privoxy install.)

In the same day, I also got to support the filibuster and debate Dean Garfield of the MPAA.

Thanks Daniel, Stacy, Harlan, Alex, Ed, and Dean!
