I had lunch with Elaine and Alex today. They are Radcliffe fellows this year so I joined them at the Fellows lunch. We chatted with a couple of interesting people, including an artist from LA! The Fellows are from various academic areas and all have their own projects they are working on. After lunch, we took a bus to MIT and walked through the main building (and the infinite corridor) and then to see the new Stata Center. (That's us reflected in part of the building.) This facility was designed by Frank Gehry. It is a typical Gehry building. Before I headed back to D's, I stopped at the MIT Museum. Among the exhibits was a series of kinetic sculptures by Stewart Ganson, basically little sculptures that are driven by a motor and have moving parts. Many of them are quite beautiful and a little odd.
