Pascal Triangle
In my math and science class we are looking at math problems and their relationship to urban planning. For my project I chose to look at the Pascal Triangle. The Pascal Triangle is really fascinated and the amount of patterns in it is mind blowing. I connected the math of binomials to the engineering process for blueprints in urban planning as Read More…
Bridging It Together~DC~
Our first action project in Urban Redux was to build a bridge. My group decided to use bamboo for it’s well known strength. First we calculated the dimensions of the joints and members. With the proper calculations completed we began to construct the bridge. We used guerrilla glue and duct tape to piece together our bridge. Once it Read More…
Radios and Waves
In our second action project we worked on radios. With this project we were able to understand the principles of frequencies by building the radio. We learned about how people use radios for a variety of things including entertainment, news, weather and sports among many others. They are used around the world for political, social, Read More…
Spectrograph-Light and Sound
In our Math and Science course we are studying the language of the universe through light and sound. Our first unit we studied the fundamentals of electromagnetic physics and mathematics of a rainbow by making a spectrograph. We learned about how rainbows were made and studied the process of graphing it’s intensity and color. I Read More…
