MIT Mood Meter, by Javier Hernandez and M. Ehsan Hoque, graduate students of Media
Arts and Sciences, School of Architecture
Locations: Stratton Student Center, Infinite Corridor (Building 8), Stata Center Student Street, Media Lab and viewed on the project web site, MIT Mood Meter.
Installed: Phased installation from March-April 2011
MIT Mood Meter is designed to assess and display the overall mood of the MIT community. By gathering and aggregating affective information (i.e., smiles) from people as they move around campus, the Mood Meter can estimate and reflect the overall mood of MIT during the Festival of Art, Science and Technology. Although smiles are not the only sign of good mood, they can be used as one barometer of happiness. This project is intended to raise awareness of how our own smiles can positively affect the surrounding environment, and to assess how congenial MIT is as a community. The dynamic, real-time information may lead to answers to questions such as “Are people from one department happier than others?” , “Do midterms lower the mood?” or “Does warmer weather lead to happiness?” The Mood Meter is displayed in the Stratton Student Center, the Infinite Corridor in Building 8, the Student Street in the Stata Center, and the Media Lab and is viewable on the project web site.

He was appointed a Firefighter on November 29, 1969, and after graduating from the Fire Academy, was first assigned to Engine Company 21 in Manhattan. Over the next 32 years, he rose through the ranks of the FDNY, serving as a Lieutenant at Engine Company 35 in East Harlem, as a Captain at Engine Company 8 in Manhattan, and as a Battalion Chief in Battalion 19 in the Bronx.
Beginning in 1988, while in the rank of Battalion Chief, he served in several administrative positions at headquarters, including the Chief of Personnel and the Chief of the Bureau of Health Services, where he oversaw the medical care and treatment for FDNY members.
Upon his promotion to deputy chief in 1993, he returned to the field and served in Division 3 in Manhattan. A year later, he was appointed Deputy Assistant Chief and was instrumental in merging the Emergency Medical Service of the New York City Health + Hospitals Corporation into the FDNY. Following the merger, he became the chief in charge of EMS. In 1997, he was promoted to Chief of Operations, overseeing all operations and training for more than 14,000 uniformed fire and EMS personnel.
After the September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center, he was appointed Chief of Department, following the death of his close friend, Chief Peter J. Ganci, Jr. Commissioner Nigro was responsible for overseeing all rescue and recovery operations at the World Trade Center site, and the beginning of the unprecedented rebuilding of the department following the death of 343 FDNY members. As Chief of Department, Commissioner Nigro held the highest uniformed rank, overseeing all major uniformed FDNY bureaus: Operations, Training, EMS, Communications, and Fire Prevention. He retired from the department in 2002 and returned in 2014 as Fire Commissioner.
Commissioner Nigro followed in the footsteps of his father, FDNY Captain Daniel Nigro, who served the department for 33 years.

Early morning shadows of the surrounding trees are cast on the east facade of the dormitory wing. The second and third floor facades are set back create visual interest and avoid a long, uninterrupted, shear wall fronting the grassy hillside.
Or should I title this "Not so Neutral Density Filters" as both these have quite a colour cast
I'm sure I am not alone in being disappointed to find when using Cokin filters or the rip off versions from ebay and other sources, have quite a magenta colour cast, under some lighting conditions. They are even worse if you stack several together in the filter holder, making it almost impossible to get a natural look without spending a lot of time editing.
So the first lesson I learnt was to only use one at a time and I have to say they are serving me well, giving some very nice results.
I couldnt help but wonder though if there was something better out there for the budget restricted (must remember that term) photographer, as the likes of Lee Filters are far beyond my means at present.
After a bit of research, I was seeing quite a bit of positive info on Kood filters, which instead of erring toward magenta, had more of a cyan tint to them. If nothing else it would enable me to put a bit of blue into the grey skies which seem to have become a fixed feature around here :~)
I found a supplier from Wales via ebay which seemed to be the cheapest and included postage too. To my complete surprise it arrived the following day, a little under 24 hours from making the purchase. Seemed like the gods were on my side for a change, just a shame it didnt come with some decent weather in the package. Seriously though, excellent service and if anybody wants their details, just message me.
So it was up before dawn the following morning for a walk along the canal at my faourite time of day, to try a few test shots. No wonderful light or mist to play with though, just uniform grey skies again. Not that it was going to stop me having a play and trying some comparisons between the filters.
Now you will have to excuse the shots here, I never intended to post them side by side like this, so they dont line up correctly. It was only yesterday having a bit of a discussion on colour casts and white balance that triggered the idea to show both like this.
The shots have not had any processing, just a straight convertion from RAW to JPG, sort of lined up and then resized to a more manageable size for posting here.
Camera settings were the same for both shots
White Balance - Cloudy ~6000k
30 sec exposure with the aid of a variable neutral density filter at approx 6 stops
f16 @ 100 ISO
18mm focal length on a 18-55 kit lens to check for vignetting (very slight in top corners)
Well I hope you were not expecting any conclussions, it is far too early to tell which are better under what conditions. I'm sure I will use both and over time may develop a preference for one over the other, but I'm afraid you will have to keep checking back for that :~)
