Extra Credit Event 2

For this event I went to the Art + Brain + Morpho Nano Catalogue launch. First there was an online example of the book that I am posing next to. According to the catalog intro, most of the stories and structures were organized by Patricia Olynyk and Professor Vesna. While the Morpho Nano portion came from David Familian, a professor at UCI. Their catalog really explores biological dynamics and different parts of cellular structures.  First Professor Vesna did a short introduction and Professor Olynyk and the other professors all concisely explained their contribution to the catalog. I really appreciated the event because well for starters there were excerpts of the catalog virtually. I also liked how everyone was allowed to mingle and keep looking at different ideas/concepts that led to the catalog. It was also really cool to see Professor Vesna around colleagues and to see her in what she does best. This was my final event and I can see that this was a representation of DESMA 9 all in one, because it literally combined elements that I never would have thought, and they all came together. I enjoyed my time in this course throughout the quarter and it was a wonderful experience.
