Graduate Mentor:
Artistic Outreach for Science, Mathematics, and Engineering
Background
Communicating with students to create visual interaction has increased my artistic perception. I am learning how to combine what I read about the mathematical and scientific procedures with the specifications that each student requests. Together we are creating applications to enhance visualization and understanding.
Project Development
For each project, my team member describes the mathematic or scientific project as well as the visual components they need me to create. I use Adobe Flash to create my artwork, so they can easily load the images and apply ActionScript to animate interaction.
