In todays session we explored the work of Sunni Brown and visual note-taking. You can follow in our foot steps by following the links below. As a class we took visual notes to the 'visual notetaking 101' lecture, you can see my notes above.

Another of the grand lecture halls at Princeton University. This is Palmer Hall, former home to the Princeton Physics Department.
Andy gave his first lecture on solar eclipses in general and our eclipse in particular. This lecture was delayed by a day or so in order to get the laptop actually talking to the projector, which required the attention of several of the techers and the sacrifice of several paper clips.
There were several more lectures over the next few days, but this is the only one I attempted to take photographs at.
RAW converted twice in ACR and merged with a gradient mask applied to 16-bit layers to bring out Andy's face with reasonable skin color in otherwise really bad lighting, while preserving the image on the screen. The result was reduced to 8-bit channels and saved as JPEG.
近年來「運動」已然成為新的搖滾樂，令全球為之瘋狂，體育場的興建概念反映了時代思潮，成為新世紀都市規劃最重要的工具，但在台灣，多數花大錢興建的場館幾乎都成為蚊子館，要如何避免這樣浪費公帑的公有建築，還能全民享用，興建今年夏季倫敦奧運主場館的建築師羅德（Rod Sheard），將首度訪台，介紹他最新的建築設計倫敦奧運主場館。
奧運將於今年夏天在倫敦舉行，為此，倫敦市區整備市容，也建造了被暱稱為「倫敦碗」的奧運主場館，以特殊碗狀造型呈現，不僅使用環保結構元件，大量建材在奧運結束後，都可以重新依需求組裝使用，這種可拆卸式的結構創舉，也開創全新的輕透美學，是體育建築領域中前所未見的新穎設計。
出生於澳洲的羅德，傾注於體育建築領域的創意及革新，為國際級賽事場館、大型專業展演場地規劃設計樹立典範，至今已成全球最知名的體育建築設計團隊。繼2000年操刀雪梨奧運主場館後，他再次擔任2012倫敦奧運主場館的首席建築設計師，這次受邀來台演講，暢談全球大型場館建築所孕育的搖滾美學與人文觀點。
羅德表示，倫敦已是一個高度發展的城市，又是第3次舉辦奧運，他利用新開發的當代建築材質，打造一棟可以組裝拆卸重新配置的主場館，也挑戰大型場館一定要永久存在的概念，對建築的未來提供一個當代的回答。

On September 1 2006, the first Kristine Bonnevie Lecture in Evolutionary Biology was held as a part of the 195th anniversary of the University of Oslo. Professor Richard Dawkins held the lecture on the topic "Is Evolution Predictable?". The slide shown was his conclusion of this lecture.

I couldn't WAIT to see inside the Chrysler Building for the first time in my life.
This crowd is listening to an openhousenewyork lecture on the building's genesis. I have to admit that I was a little disappointed that only the lobby was open to the public for the day...I wanted to go up to the top! However, a guard confided to us that it isn't worth it. Unlike, say, the Empire State Building, it does not have an observatory or viewing platform, and is accessible only by a series of ladders after the stairs end. Want to know what's up there???
A toilet.
The highest toilet in the world, or at least it was at the time. Walter P. Chrysler himself had an apartment up there and apparently liked the idea of relieving himself above the heads of his rivals (although of course, they weren't in the same building). I can't vouch for the veracity of this urban legend, but it sure makes a great story.
The ceiling mural is by Edward Trumbull, who also designed the decoration for the Chanin Building. It is called "Transport and Human Endeavor," and according to the speaker, is the largest indoor mural in the U.S. (or the world? I didn't quite catch it, but it seems hard to believe).
Incidentally, I had no idea until just now (looking up websites) that the building's ornamentation, including the gargoyles) are actually modelled after CAR PARTS- hood ornaments, radiator caps, and the like. For those who don't know, Chrysler is best-known as a car company.
Here's what OHNY said about the Chrysler:
