Working at NASA: A Brief Summary

Abstract

Invited presentation for Rhode Island School of Design students in a course titled 'Digital + Media.' I was asked to speak about my job and what I do, and that a technical topic would be acceptable as well. From the university:The students are a mixture of tech and more conceptual investigation. Questioning how the world is manifesting human and machine, the consequences good and bad, what technology is allowing us to experience, where technology is taking us. Even if your lecture was highly technical it would be interesting and inspiring, the students are grad students focusing on art in varying forms in relation to technology. Inspiration can come from being confronted with things you don't understand and translating it through art. Art, technology, society + culture is our overarching theme.
