The project was started by two MIT undergraduates Kendra Johnson (Environmental Engineering '09) and Froylan Sifuentes (CHemical Engineering '09) through a summer public service center fellowship. After three trips to the community, the water system now serves eighteen families with a regular supply of potable water. As a sustainable source of funding for the water system, Sacha Yaku is now starting an "Art for Water" program to tell the story of Santa Ana in the United States by selling traditional jewelry and pottery to raise money for the water system.</span> 461 tag:techtv.mit.edu,:Array/186020060 2007-05-14 02:38:24 -0400 chosetec How to fold the MIT logo in Origami in 3 Easy Steps: <p>In this video I demonstrate how to fold the MIT seal "Mens et Manus", my original origami design, and one of the winning entries for the 2006-2007 MIT Origami contest. </p><p>Written and Directed by Brian Chan, <br />Cinematography by Theresa Guo, <br />Mozart Piano Sonata No. 12 in F Major performed by Anna Lo.</p> 400 tag:techtv.mit.edu,:Array/185844060 2007-05-17 00:25:47 -0400 pieces by REBECCA RICE DANCE <p><strong>Choreography: Rebecca Rice</strong></p><p><strong>Music: John Harbison "Deep Dances" (2006)<br /></strong></p><p><strong>Dancers: Michelle Machon, Cydney Nielsen</strong></p><p><strong>Cellist: Emmanuel Feldman; Bass: Pascale Delache-Feldman </strong></p><p><em>Premiere: Bank of America Celebrity Series May 2006; Tsai Performance Center, Boston</em></p><p><em>Last performance: Cunningham Studio Theater, 55 Bethune St, NYC; Feb 2007 </em></p><p><em>Filmed by Chris Mehl </em></p><p><em>Photo credit: Matthew Karas </em></p> 754 tag:techtv.mit.edu,:Array/185785980 2008-03-12 12:10:36 -0400 chosetec Here I show you how to fold an origami brass rat, in only one hour. <p> origami by Brian Chan <br />music by Anna Lo, Seth Friedman </p><p><br />for more information see: <br /><a href="http://chosetec.darkclan.net/origami">chosetec.darkclan.net/origami</a></p> 316 tag:techtv.mit.edu,:Array/185752880 2008-03-11 11:54:31 -0400 chosetec An introduction to some flow visualization techniques used at MIT.
