Dunseath, a graduate student at Emerson College. “There is a story already there but someone needs to weave it together.” “I especially liked the fact that even Democrats can bring an over-arching vision and moral fiber to their politics as opposed to simply having disparate policy proposals,” said Vivek Viswanathan ’09, who is taking “Justice...
Fascinated by the idea of "light as material," Azambourg began developing a lampless lampshade in 2002. Created with the textile company Dubar-Warneton, the shade is wired throughout with fiber-optic thread typically used in the aviation and space industries. "My lamp glows by itself--it's magical!" he says...
...project speak for themselves. What Lath and his team of engineers and architects do is alter the composition of concrete and plastic. To create the Scintilla tiles, hundreds of light-conducting channels are carved into a transparent block of clear or pigmented polymer. These channels act like fiber-optic filaments, giving the material the ability to magically shift, shimmer and ripple in response to movement and changes in light intensity. As a result, the tiles react to shadows and moving lights and accordingly disperse them on the tiles' surface...
...merely a trivial change of focus. In developing the Food Literacy Project, officials from HUDS consulted Chairman of the Department of Nutrition Walter C. Willett at the Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH). Willett emphasizes a heightened concern over saturated fat, instead of total fat, and amount of fiber intake. In keeping with these findings, the HUDS menu planners added whole grain pasta as a daily lunch item last spring. Additionally, the Food Literacy Project is currently modifying the six identifiers on menu cards in dining halls, replacing “percentage of calories from fat” with...

Conservation, too, benefits from technology: auto companies are suddenly getting more serious about boosting mileage by replacing steel components with materials like strong, lightweight carbon fiber...
