[Aspuru-Guzik group list] [iic-seminars] IIC Seminar Reminder - Bernard Frsicher and Dean Abernathy on April 16th

by Helene Tingle

Initiative in Innovative Computing @ Harvard and the Humanities Center at Harvard as part of the Digital Humanities Seminar Series Wednesday, April 16, 2008; 4:00-5:30pm 60 Oxford Street, Room 330 Bernard Frischer, Director, Institute for Advanced Technology in the Humanities, University of Virginia and Dean Abernathy, Assistant Professor, Department of Architecture, University of Virginia Seminar Title: Making Heritage Virtual: Rome Reborn 1.0 and Other 3D Modeling Projects at the Institute for Advanced Technology in the Humanities Abstract: This talk will discuss the digitization of 3D cultural property such as pottery, statues, buildings and even entire cities. Current projects at IATH include Rome Reborn, an international initiative to create 3D computer models of Rome's urban development, from first settlement to the city's depopulation in the sixth century A.D. Rome Reborn 1.0, the first result, shows Rome as it might have appeared in 320 A.D. The talk will conclude with discussion of some new directions and challenges: populating models with people and their activities, using them as tools for discovery, and collecting and disseminating real-time 3D models on the Internet. Upcoming IIC Seminars: Continue to stay up to date with our IIC Seminar Schedule. Parking is available in the 52 Oxford Street Garage. Please tell the attendant that you are attending the IIC Seminar. _______________________________________________ iic-seminars mailing list iic-seminars(a)calists.harvard.edu http://calists.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/iic-seminars

[Aspuru-Guzik group list] PS

by Ivan Kassal

One minor thing I forgot to mention: Please do not eat or touch the zoanthids. They are possibly the most toxic creatures in the world. They contain palytoxin: In which case not even Prof. Kishi will be able to save you. Ivan

[Aspuru-Guzik group list] The aquarium

by Ivan Kassal

Dear group, Thanks to Shuting's good graces, we now have a group aquarium. It is between my desk and Alejandro's. You are welcome to come introduce yourself to the inhabitants or come watch them when you are stressed out (it is very soothing). Currently, there is a small conch, some zooanthids, a bunch of snails, at least three featherdusters, and assorted worms and small starfishes. You are welcome to suggest names for the different creatures, and then a committee consisting of Ivan will decide which names to give them. Two rules, though: the conch is already named Herbert, and no one can be called Professor Mukamel. Also, a few aquarium rules. Please don't turn the light on or off or try to clean it (Ivan will do that). And don't tap on the glass. Ivan

[Aspuru-Guzik group list] Fwd: thesis defense

by Alan Aspuru-Guzik

Dear group, As you see below, Stephen Jordan is inviting you all to his thesis defense. I have a previous commitment (that I will try to escape, if possible, but I doubt I will. It has to do with my chairing of the computing committee and the use of electronic lab notebooks), but hopefully some of you can attend. You will learn a lot of quantum computing for sure! Cheers, Alan ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: <sjordan(a)mit.edu> Date: Wed, Apr 9, 2008 at 7:26 PM Subject: thesis defense To: Alan Aspuru-Guzik <alan(a)aspuru.com> Cc: Ivan Kassal <kassal(a)fas.harvard.edu>, Masoud Mohseni < masoud.mohseni(a)gmail.com> Dear All, I'll have my thesis defense tomorrow at 2:30pm in the upstairs CTP seminar room (building 6C room 442). I want to invite my Harvard chemistry buddies in case you are interested in attending. (If possible, please forward this to the rest of the group. I don't have all the email addresses.)
