WORLD TOUCH: DEMOCRATIZING INNOVATION ACACIA ROAD VENTURES,, 20155 HARVARD SQUARE Q | CAMBRIDGE,, MA

Worldtouch is an online mentoring platform developed to support David Edward’s Artscience Program. Teams of students from a number of high schools around the world engage in educational experiences that foster artscience innovation, occuring across traditional disciplinary boundaries between art and science. By migrating the program to the web, it democratizes access to innovation education previously available only to students from a select number of schools.

Insight 1: Mentors who are interested in being mentees and vice versa find the Worldtouch interface incompatible as one must choose between mentor and mentee when signing up for the app.

Insight 2: Recording videos of sessions is mandatory, even if a mentor is having a bad day and would rather not record a video that day.

Insight 3: The computer doesn’t automatically make an appointment based on a mentor and mentees’ correspondence. The people involved must manually enter the appointment.

Insight 4: When someone is finalizing an appointment,a window for booking an appointment a week from the current date appears. The individual can change the date of the future appointment,for instance to two weeks rather than a week from now.

INTELLIBADGE: ARMING THE POLICE WITH STRESS DATA ACACIA ROAD VENTURES,, 20155 HARVARD SQUARE Q | CAMBRIDGE,, MA

IntelliBadge is an information system designed to optimize police performance. It consists of three parts: a fibit with an electrodermal stress sensor, a mobile application, and a desktop dashboard with data analytics. There is an urgent need to manage police stress: 25% of police oﬃcers have metabolic syndrome, which includes obesity and hypertension, and a high risk for cardiovascular disease. All police are under the spotlight, though only an average of 6.6% will have a complaint filed against them for misconduct. Finally, police are first responders whose wellness determines their ability to protect the wellness of their fellow citizens. Stress is a reliable predictor of police performance. The cumulative toll of police stress results in impaired decision making and societal costs. By monitoring a trainee’s stress levels, headquarters can better evaluate a trainee’s readiness for service using standardized metrics. It can create a more resilient support network for oﬃcers on duty, with a system capable of detecting when backup may be necessary. In the long run, it can inspire and drive improvements in police practice and policy. IntelliBadge has partnered with the New Castle County police in Delaware to introduce innovations to training and operations.

trouble.

4. He knows that officers have trouble admitting that they need backup at any time, and trains his officers that the “call for help” is the most responsible conduct an officer can have.

Based on the two personas, we use storyboards to tell the user stories. This way, we can ensure we meet all the user’s needs.

Pain Point 1: Having headquarters observe an oﬃcer’s stress score at all times is like having an older brother keep an eye on you at all times. Some oﬃcers may feel that the surveillance is bothersome.

Pain Point 2:

While headquarters might feel justified in sending backup when an oﬃcer’s stress score spikes, the oﬃcer in question may not feel that they need backup.

Pain Point 3: The same stress score means something different for each officer. A stress score must be compared to an officer’s average and median stress scores to be

set in context.

Pain Point 4: An oﬃcer can keep track of their stress score, and whether it is in the alert zone, so that when headquarters sends them backup, it is not a surprise.

Pain Point 5: Some citizens insist that they should have access to oﬃcers’ stress data. The makers of IntelliBadge refused, because it is confidential data.

OPENNING LAB O T f

Drawing on collaboration with and between the Air Force Civil Engineers and the Protection Agency, the project will reveal a terrain of legible riskk and access, as encoded in slope typologies and infrastructural configurations resulting from unexploded ordinance clearance and soil remediation activities. On site bioremediation is use to eliminate residual explosives and unclean contaminants in the ground. Removal and deposition of the remaining contaminated soil, by cremacro-patterns of soil through cut-and–fill, will reflect visually and spatially where is taking place the process of remediation. Also, groundwater contaminants are identified through monitoring wells.

TTesting esting plots

Connecting Passage Territori

Controlled testing plots will be developed at strategic junctures within this pattern, and in potential source areas of biodiversity in the ecological gradients adjacent to the MMR. Research institutions, starting with Harvard University and the University of Massachusetts-Amherst, will curate the test plots to maximize their potential as triggers to increase dynamic flows and movements of flora and fauna, and eventually the instigators of passage territories throughout the region.

MYCHORRIZAL CITY

FILTRATION AS CIVIC SPACE Our project proposes the landscape as a mechanism for redistributing the energy collected in the form of sewage, in a manner that engages rather than obstructs ecological processes.

By implementing a system of diﬀerentiated and specialized basins along l paths h off highest hi h water flow, we amplify the landscape’s inherent ability to act as a filter and set a stage where the acts of decomposition, digestion, and purification become part of a g p

Thus, the project raises previously

hidden networks to the surface where they can educate and engage the population as it evolves from a remediative landscape to a fertilized, recreational one.

As a basic unit and a synergetic group, the basin is a catalytic device. Each basin type is defined by a specific range of slopes and depths, which interact with the dissolved oxygen in the sewage and the water carrying it in such a way that it activates specific processes of purification and decay—filtration, settling and separation of particle sizes, aerobic decomposition, anaerobic decomposition, and oxidation.

EXHIBITED, HARVARD ROCKEFELLER CENTER FOR LATIN AMERICAN STUDIES PUBLISHED, HARVARD GSD WEBSITE

1519 AD, the narrative of food was the spatial and spiritual foundation of the largest city in the world: Tenochtitlan. A vast web of canals linked chinampas, markets, and temples into a single urban phenomena, and gave tangible form to a cosmology that personified its deities as crops.

Throughout Mexico’s history, La Merced’s cultural prestige has derived from its primacy as a main node in that historic energetic network. Mexico City today, the historic markets are the last stewards of the doctrine that food systems should be an urbanizing and civilizing force in society society.
