A senior design capstone by Emily Zhou and Alice Fang, nano is a collection and curation toolkit that encourages people to explore their niche interests and build a personal museum around them. We wanted to create something that encourages informal learning through making, and inspires an interest and appreciation in science and nature. The framework of nano encompasses a physical kit and web interface, and by collecting artifacts, conducting their own research, and creating informative print content, people can then piece together their personalized micro museum as a lasting object that continues to display and inform others on the topic of their choice.
The physical kit includes the micro museum frame, a series of tools, and a booklet. The frame is a 4” x 4” x 5” rectilinear form that displays an internally contained diorama on the front face, a collection wall on the back face, and print information on the remaining three faces. To help support the collection and curation process, the kit also includes commonly-used artifacts and tools in science research practices, such as a magnifying glass, scalpel, curved forceps, and a smart-phone macro lens attachment. In particular, the macro lens attachment enables close-up photography for use in the creation of informational print content. The booklet gives an overview of the entire kit, as well as tips and tricks for building a diorama and some diorama ideas.
The accompanying web interface provides a space where people can design and print out labels, diagrams, and other print materials for their museum. The hope is that some of the practices with the physical kit, ie. looking closely with a magnifying glass and taking macro photography, can be placed into the web tool to create printable visuals. The web interface also contains a gallery space to allow people to share the different and unique museums that they have built, as a digital collection of collections.
With this project, we aimed to incite curiosity and create a space where people can collect and curate objects about things that they find interesting. In this way, learning is not a passive process/experience, as it would be in a traditional museum gallery experience. We hope that through a hands-on, DIY framework, and through the act of building and collecting, learning is something that is fun and personal—and with the display characteristic of nano, that other people can find interest in random topics as well.

The MRT (short for Merchise Resource Toolkit) was a powerful library, or API, developed by Merchise Software from Santa Clara Cuba, in order to automate the creation process of any application.
Formerly known as Goliat, it took many years to Medardo Rodriguez and Miguel Cepero (and other members of the team) to create this collection of Object Oriented Code that would fast track the completion of any other application.
Students and workers of the campus used MRT to program medical applications, biology simulations, mechanical and electrical and financial tools and Merchise of course used it in their video games.
With the use of MRT the team was able to develop games like "Axthor" or "Escape del castillo de la física" in few months to what otherwise could have been several years of development.
This tool was at the time called the Cuban SCUMM BAR.

Stone tool from Lomekwi 3, West Turkana, KenyaThe earliest known stone tools have been discovered at Lomekwi 3 in West Turkana, Kenya. They were made 3.3 million years ago, predating the earliest Oldowan stone tools by 700,000 years and the earliest fossils of the first member of the human genus—Homo habilis—by about 500,000 years. “The cores and flakes are clearly knapped,” says team member Sonia Harmand of Stony Brook University, but they are also very different from the Oldowan examples that were previously the earliest known stone tools. Many of the Lomekwian tools were made by striking a core against an anvil stone to produce sharp flakes, or by placing a core on a hard surface and striking the top of the core with a hammer stone. Harmand, whose team's findings were published in the journal Nature, says that the arm and hand motions used to make these tools would have been similar to those used by apes to smash open nuts. Stone toolmaking has been considered one of the defining traits of the genus Homo, but the two known hominid species who lived in the region 3.3 million years ago and could have made the tools—Kenyanthropus platyops and Australopithecus afarensis—have not been considered members of the genus. According to Harmand, “The traditional view of the genus Homo surely needs to be revisited.”

Crop them, mix them up, change the colours, whatever. I don't plan to add talk boxes to these or put them in elaborate scenes.
