A Side Order of Science Learning with that Technology

<p>I attended a talk last Friday where the designer was passing around pieces of vegetable leather. The speaker,&nbsp;<a href="http://www.utdallas.edu/atec/events/index.php?id=1220439807" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Galina Mihaleva</a>, is a visiting professor of fashion design at Arizona State University. I enjoyed the talk and especially found the materiality of the biologically-inspired designs of interest.</p> <p>Although my interest is not as a fashion designer but rather as someone who is interested in science education &mdash; of the mathematical and computer sciences. Galina noted that many different&nbsp;<em>types of technologies</em>&nbsp;were used during the design process. So, I wondered what science information these technologies were imparting on those who use them. The answer is: quite a lot.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/creative-automata/a-side-order-of-science-learning-with-that-technology-403acb9bbdef"><strong>Read More</strong></a></p>
