Science meets Art

In 1971 in Future Shock, Alvin Toffler wrote about the high tech/high touch dynamic that would become more and more pronounced as we move through this high technology age. So many of the technical people in my life, both programmers and technical communicators, have had an artistic side to them. In, fact the more technical (high-tech) they are, the more artistic (high-touch) they are.

This amazing article came to my attention today. I just thought I would share. This is for all my high-tech/high-touch friends and the art they do so well, including: Mary's writing and origami; Andrea's writing and quilting; Ryan's music; Maurice's music; Bob's music; John's writing and music; Bob's photography; and Tommy's music:

Good article! I've used a Tom Hull unit to create an origami dodecahedron that's really pretty...
