In the Machine Learning Studio, visitors can use computer vision and machine learning applications to discover how machines learn and perceive their environment. Working with tech trainers, they can build and train self-driving model cars here, program robots with facial recognition, and gain insights into how they can teach these devices a wide variety of activities. Step-by-step, they can experience not only how these technologies function, but also that everything the machines know is determined by us.
The Machine Learning Studio not only offers insights into the hidden inner life of our learning devices—it is also a place where prototypes and objects can be maintained or repaired by the tech trainers, and museum procedures are revealed that are usually kept behind the scenes.

Who knew that some dogs have to learn to cuddle?
From day one, Lollie Wonderdog was full of love and energy. But she had no idea how to express herself or direct her excitement. Her main forms of expression were a trotting pace around the house or yard, back and forth, back and forth; and a constantly flapping tongue—licking the air, but always pointed in the general direction of your face. Come to think of it, I should post a video of this phenomenon.
A few weeks have passed now, and we have taught Lollie to redirect some of her energy into productive things, like going for walks, solving treat-filled puzzles (kongs, Gatorade bottles, etc), and learning new commands. (Have I mentioned what a fast learner she is? It’s amazing how quickly she picks up new things.) But until a few days ago, she still didn’t know how to express affection.
You can imagine that my heart dissolved into a little puddle of goo the other night when she quietly walked over and plopped her 55 pounds of pure muscle into my lap, and rested her sweet face against my chest. As my hands stroked her still-skinny side and her mystery-scarred face, she slowly closed her eyes, looking oh-so-content.
I swear, this dog could melt anyone’s heart.

Detail from the canopy of the south pew of St Michael's, each corner held a figure representing a different concept; this particular one is learning.
St Michael's was built in the c15th as the domestic chapel for Rycote Park manor house for its owner, Sir Richard Quatremaine. Quatremaine died without issue, and ownership transferred to the family of Sibil, Quatremaine's wife. In 1521 the manor house was passed over to Sir John Heron, Treasurer of the Household to both Henrys VII and VIII; it's probably during this time that the manor hourse was demolished and replaced by Rycote Palace. On Heron's death, the land passed over to his son, Giles, who was forced to sell it in 1539 to Sir John Williams (who was closer in favour to Henry). After Williams's death, the land passed into the Norreys family via Williams's son-in-law, Henry Norris, 1st Baron Norreys. On the 2nd Baron's death, the lands and title passed onto his nephew James Bertie, and remained in the family until the early c19th. During this time, the palace was rebuilt after a fire in 1745 and Lancelot Capability Brown (1716-1783) redeveloped the landscape in 1778. However, the manor was past its heyday, the house was sold off in lots early in the 1800s. A manor house (of sorts) remains, with the stables converted in the 1920s.
Perhaps the height of the palace was during the Tudor period, Henry VIII and Catherine Howard spent their honeymoon here; Henry's daughter Elizabeth visited Rycote on her way to her confinement at Woodstock (Williams being instructed to be her guard by Queen Mary I), Elizabeth would visit a further 5 times during her own reign.
Throughout all this time, the chapel remained alongside; slowly changed inside, shifting from Roman Catholic to High Anglican, extended and redecorated, always watching.

Lately, I've been doing a lot of research on cameras and lenses. I think it's time to upgrade.
In the midst of my research, I found a post-it in my planner with this very quote written on it.
And then it hit me.
A writer needs nothing more than a pen and a sheet of paper to write. The kind of pen and paper you write on will not change the way the words flow onto the page. The writer is the only one who can make the words on that sheet of paper worth something. Only the writer can piece together words to create something utterly poetic and beautiful.
A photographer is like a writer- the camera and lenses s/he makes photos with is, essentially, no different to a pen and sheet of paper. At the end of the day- it all comes down to the beauty of the photo, and not the camera and the lenses. Those tools, yes, do help.
In writing, a good pen and a quality sheet of paper does make the process easier, but a thoughtful poem written on a sheet of paper is no different to one written on the back of a napkin.
In writing, it's all about the writer's vocabulary and creative use of words. In photography- it's all about the way a photographer manipulates light like putty in his/her hands, to create a photo filled with meaning and beauty.
So, I'm learning. Maybe I won't need the biggest camera and most expensive set of lenses. I need something that just works. It could be a camera phone. It could be a crappy point & shoot camera, or a small dSLR camera with a basic lens. Or heck, it could even be the camera of my dreams- it just needs to work.
I've learned that it's all about the person behind it all. It's all about the masterful writer in front of that sheet of paper that makes the words appear as they should on a page. It's all about the photographer behind the camera, manipulating light, and moving things, people- whatever, in and out of the frame, and creating a capture of a split second in time.
We can all be masters of every thing and any thing we do. We just have to work hard, and not find ways to skip the most important part- learning.
I've seen so many photographers on the internet talk about how easier editing is with a tablet so i decided to give it a try and i was lucky enough to receive photoshop elements with the tablet. That program is sooooo complicated lol today i messed around with the lens flare options and the other stuff. this image was edited 3 times because the program crashed on me twice x.x but i finally got to finish it and then i did the color editing with lightroom 2. If anyone have any photoshop tips or great places to learn from i would be joyful ro hear them :D
but I'm loving this new style of photography. everything is so bright and nice. lol

Portraits of Hope's massive public art and civic project – involving more than 20,000 kids, adults and volunteers – that visually transformed Manhattan. By recruiting and utilizing more than 5,400 fully operational NYC taxis to participate in the unprecedented 4-month exhibition, the cabs and city streets of New York were transformed into a giant mobile canvas. The unprecedented event integrated two key characteristics that define the City: the saturation of the iconic taxis; and the vertical physicality of Manhattan. www.portraitsofhope.org

e Rolex Learning Center, conçu par le bureau d’architecture japonais de renommée internationale SANAA, est à la fois un laboratoire d’apprentissage, une bibliothèque abritant 500’000 ouvrages et un centre culturel international. Il est ouvert aussi bien aux étudiants qu’au public. Sur une surface continue de 20 000 m2 il offre services, bibliothèques, centres d’information, espaces sociaux, lieux d’études, restaurants, cafés et magnifiques extérieurs. Le bâtiment est extrêmement novateur, avec des pentes douces et des terrasses ondulant autour de «patios» intérieurs. Sans oublier les piliers quasiment invisibles qui soutiennent le toit courbe, une structure qui a exigé des méthodes de construction inédites.
«Le Rolex Learning Center illustre parfaitement notre école, où les frontières traditionnelles entre les disciplines sont dépassées, où les mathématiciens et les ingénieurs rencontrent les neuroscientifiques et les microtechniciens pour imaginer les technologies qui amélioreront notre quotidien. Nous invitons le public à découvrir cet espace afin qu'il comprenne que travailler dans le domaine scientifique, c’est participer au progrès de la société», déclare Patrick Aebischer, président de l’EPFL.

I had this "job" living in undergraduate residence halls being an all-purpose big-sister/organizer/mediator/task-master. I think I was also supposed to be an intellectual inspiration, but not so sure if that happened. As vaguely worded as the job was, it was intense and took up a lot of my dissertation time... but in return I had a place to live and discovered an energetic crew of student friends. The toughest part was having to draw the line on certain types of behavior according to the rules (some of which might be necessary, but didn't really make sense).
Here, we are learning meringue. We helped organize an event for international students - we had lots of great food. Fun and food seem to attract people. This was a pretty successful event as college programs go... managed to appeal to a wide spectrum of students who usually don't seek out stuff beyond their comfort zone. We had a blast.
