I am currently putting together a slide show presentation for my 2nd thesis review here at MIT. How do I begin to talk about semantic networks, knowledge databases, robotic articulating arms, and 3 traditional and non-traditional case studies of architecture into a cohesive platform? Each of what was mentioned stem and cross-over onto each other forming a system that bridges the gap between high level design knowledge and low level construction knowledge.
Last week, I was invited by a good prof. to share my thesis research in the form of a presentation to sponsor companies for the MIT Media Lab, including Samsung, IBM, Microsoft, Steelcase, and many others along with some press like Popular Mechanics.
It was a great way to share my thoughts and describe the thesis in a nutshell to a crowd who may be unfamiliar to architecture, software, software programming, and artificial intelligence techniques.
On a side note:
I use the word “desk at MIT” to refer to two primary locales: the desk at my dormitory OR the desk in my assigned office that I share with my Beirut buddies (Beirut buddies = MIT colleagues).
As of this moment, it is the desk at the war office.
Signing out,
Rachelle
