August 14th, 2017: Day 28

The morning meeting was pretty relaxed, people turned in their presentations. Paige and I are still making some last minute changes to ours. The morning was spent editing the presentation and then we gave another practice one in the auditorium. It was 17 and a half minutes this time so we added enough information in. We added things in during lunch. We found Roger so I could get his hard drive and finish downloading more C73 files to work on for the next two days. I think we've done a really good job with our presentation. I'm proud of the results. We finished it around 2 and gave it to Joe. The rest of the day we spent making image cubes for Roger and putting together results for Todd Hanneken. Tomorrow we have the run-throughs of our presentations in the morning. I'm really excited to stutter in front of everyone!!!! I'll post about it 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...

August 3rd, 2017: Day 21

During the morning meeting we went over a few more abstracts and Matt asked some trick questions about them. We briefly talked about the symposium tomorrow but unfortunately, I can't go. Paige and I are getting through the data Roger gave us and we have decent results for them. They're almost presentation worthy. I've been working on the Ambrosiana/Jubilees section, mostly the introductory slides until we decide what we want to put in. We're waiting for a response from Todd Hanneken, the guy who gave us the project, to tell us the significance of the palimpsest and if there is any particular reason he wants us to work on it. I got a short answer from Roger and it was "because Todd wanted you to" but I know that there is more behind it. Paige has some really good results and I think that our presentation will be mostly about the Selden Map, there's a lot more information about it and we were asked to do less with the Jubilees. Matt came in and we had a soli...
