人算不如天算
I was asked to make a blog for the NYU IMA Low Res graduate program. (I started with no tangible experience in interaction design.) Math is nature’s poetry, and these are just diary entries.

A Guide to Understanding the Undefinable Tao in Practice
Just a quick couple thoughts.
Not sure if there will be next steps for this guide... Not sure if I did the 2,500 year old text justice (though I tried). Also not sure if a few weeks, or even months, is enough time to fully study this ancient, intangible text enough to contextualize it using a tangible topic. Even the Chinese/English translations don’t quite capture the meanings accurately.

On the flip side, I did find empathy for my red blood cells, and maybe being able to cultivate that type of simple awareness and harmony within oneself is how the Tao intends for us to find the same in the universe around us?
I've never quite connected with my red blood cells on this level, understanding the finitude of their lifespans is a strange experience. How can the cells in my body constantly be dying when my consciousness is only capable of experiencing living?

Quick reflection to add post-class: I think I changed my mind about next steps. Kind of interested in creating an actual prototype to submit to Printed Matter (feeling inspired by Adam’s comment).
