The New York City Science and Engineering Fair (NYCSEF) is the city's largest high school research competition. Each year, several hundred high school students from throughout the five boroughs of New York City present their research projects to expert judges and compete for a variety of prizes. The NYCSEF is an Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. The Preliminary Round of judging will be held on Sunday, March 1, 2009 at The City College of New York (Manhattan). My idea of the (a) fair: science by design (post-enlightenment)!

materialecology
materialecology
materialecology was formed in 2006 by Neri Oxman as an interdisciplinary research initiative that undertakes design research in the intersection between architecture, engineering, computation, and ecology. As such, this initiative is concerned with material organization and performance across all scales of design thought and practice. As such, it seeks to promote and define a design research agenda which is ecological in nature, in ideology and in material practice; it aims at embracing the evolving elements of change in both (and indeed related) social constructs and environmental descriptions of the ever changing built environment. materialecology undertakes research in advanced digital applications for architectural practice and pursuits their contribution to a design paradigm promoting generative design processes.
