The artwork in this exhibition represents collaboration between students and faculty in the art and computer science departments through the Emergent Patterns project, exploring the complex patterns and processes that can emerge in visual structures. They worked with software programs to produce different forms of recurring, natural patterns. These organic structures and patterns were then combined in layers of transparent surfaces. The multiple-layered works allow the viewer to see the evolutionary track back through the surface to the less complex visual systems from which the final image emerges.

Headed by Ed Kerns, Eugene H. Clapp II Professor of Art, and Chun Wai Liew, associate professor, head of computer science. Student participants included Rhodes Baker '10, computer science; Imogen Cain '12, art; Long Ho '10, mathematics and computer science; Khine Lin '11, pursing a B.S. in electrical and computer engineering and an A.B. in mathematics; and Scott Lyttle '10, art.

A selection of one-act comedies from David Ives’ off-Broadway hits All In The Timing, Mere Mortals, and Lives of the Saints spill onto the stage as snippets of a very odd place called human experience that can knock out an audience with both disorientation and delight in a single metaphysical blow.

Zany and smart, magical and funny, these short plays celebrate the fragility of communication to create what Time has called “theater that aerobicizes the brain and tickles the heart.” Directed by students enrolled in Theater 314 (Stage Direction).
