Photodiary

Photodiary Weird and/or neat things I saw around campus this week, brought to you through the unsatisfying yet convenient medium of cell phone pictures: As I was leaving East Campus for class, a squirrel with a full, lustrous, white beard waddled across my path and stared me down for a full minute. Either the ounce of fluff in its jaws was somehow dulling its survival instincts, or it was wondering if I was made of the same material. I didnt stick around to find out. Upon reaching said class, our teacher entrusted us to level set and record using a massive set of equipment. While walking home from the student center, I saw a strange glow emanating from Lobby 7, as if the bridge of Khazad-dûm had been bathed in the flames of a purple Balrog. It was actually just a hack. As previously mentioned, Im doing my thesis with the Media Lab, an extraordinarily spacious and light-filled building constructed using the maximum percentage of glass that the city of Cambridge could legally allow. the lobby, overtaken by an art installation open common space spanning 3rd to 5th floors, containing a wooden dinosaur model and a TV made up of 16 other TVs Opera of the Future group; the enormous hanging chandelier is actually an instrument the satirically named kitchenette outside my lab My defeated thesis proposal about to be turned in. Reese what are you doing that is not how cat feet work Thats better. Im in a cooking group on my hall dedicated to meat. I also think I have a food addiction; I just want to eat multiple meals every day. Here are some snaps of this weeks foodstuff preparation. Sometimes, MIT isnt all as terrible as they say.
