Augmented Reality Exhibit of the Underlying Skeletal and Vascular Structures in Rodin's... - 0 views

    The Cantor Art Museum at Stanford is hosting a new exhibit that is the result of a body of work designed and implemented by a host of medical experts. James Chang MD is the chief of plastic and reconstructive surgery and has long had an affinity for observing the hand conditions he often treated in sculpture by Rodin. In this project, the bronze hands were scanned and the internal structures superimposed digitally, which are then viewed by a museum patron with a smart phone or pad via an augmented reality application. This is a lovely example of the collapse between disciplines - medicine and art - that advances in imaging technology allows.

    Michael Wesch delivers a powerful message regarding how we educate ourselves in the classroom. Wesch uses several examples of the psychology of learning in the modern world and how we can take steps to correct the outdated patterns of teaching. His critique of higher education is on point and easily understood. His biggest message is that we need to consider alternative learning environments that utilize new media in ways we have not yet seen. We should challenge the notion that critical thinking is the linchpin of education, and look to enhance and augment how we learn.
