July 12th,2017:Day 5

We watched "What is Imaging Science" during the morning meeting today. Pretty corny video but not a bad one. We learned how to sharped and enhance images this morning so that was useful. After finding more images that might be Chinese characters, Paige and I printed, cut, and taped images together to see if we could get a more clear image of what we need. We took it to Dave and he thought it was funny, which it was, but it took a lot of time and effort so we deserved some more credit. We began writing our abstract about what we've learned and what the Selden Map project is. I'll keep y'all posted until tomorrow. UPDATE: It's only been like 10 minutes since I posted but Dave gave us a file to upload to look at Northern Rivers in China but haha I screwed it up in the process and we had to re-upload it so I'd have to say it was a pretty good time. We are probably going to look at it now but do actual work with it tomorrow. Talk to you 4 or 5 viewers tomorrow.

July 20th, 2017: Day 11

The morning meeting wasn't too bad today, we finished up the abstracts and had a good chat. Paige and I had the most eventful morning we've ever had, we got to go to all four floors and visit all of the labs trying to find people. We also talked to Ryan to let him know how disappointed we were with him but he's fine. We've been putting the final touches on the presentation and it looks pretty good. Peter, Ashley, and Tristan came up for lunch and we analyzed life's deepest mysteries like if Peter's shorts were shorter than mine, which they definitely were, and each others social media pages. It was a pretty good lunch. I've been doing a lot of reading today in the absence of work. Going back and forth between a dry book and a semi-dry presentation is absolutely exhilarating. Paige has been making a lot of small changes to the slides and I'm good with that, they aren't major and she's right to do most of them so I'm glad she sees some of these

July 26th, 2017: Day 15

Today's morning meeting was exciting, truly exhilarating. I have so much to report. Anjana told the group about what she is doing in her lab and why she requires charcoal. Nate told us a little bit about what he's doing in the kLab. He said he'll bring in his laptop on Friday to show the group some of his code and images. Paige and I were asked what The Jubilee's Palimpsest is, our latest project but we never received a concrete answer on that so we'll ask around. After the staff meeting, we went to help Titus and Aditi gather more information for their project. We went to the athletic complex and the ice rink with Peter and Ashley while tracking each others eye movement. The only thing I know about the experiment is that we were going to unfamiliar places. Pretty riveting stuff, I'd have to say. Today I mainly made image cubes and got a few results that I'll post later. My computer has been acting up lately and it's getting really frustrating. It&

July 19th, 2017: Day 10

During the morning meeting today Joe attempted to look up my house of Google Maps but unfortunately, the car did not drive down my street. We did three more abstracts today and they were all pretty good. Paige and I will be the second one done tomorrow so we'll give it a final review later today. Dave isn't here today so we're on our own and doing extra things to add to the presentation. I just finished a slide that has 12 chips of the map all compared to the red pigment of the chrysanthemums in Japan. I'll add that in at the bottom after I finish this. Paige is working on comparing chips of the map to a blue pigment and using the island off Southwest Sumatra as reference. Yesterday she did the same thing using green pigments and put together a map and I'm attempting to do the same but there are far less red pigment on the map so the SAM image is usually white with a small amount of black or grey. I'll add that image in later too. I guess all we have left to do
