Lecture Demonstrator, FAS Science Education

In college (Harvard ’85), I gravitated to courses heavy with physical demonstrations, and I chose performance science as a career. I am a happy, hard science nerd, user of tools, friend of the social sciences and humanities. Science Lecture Demonstrations is my day job. Other projects include teaching HowToMake(almost)Anything; 1812 Overture cannoneer; Ig Nobel Prize ceremony Moments of Science, opera and pod-casts; SEAS Holiday Lectures; and Harvard Foundation Science seminar presentations. My current Harvard gig includes a maker space for select students; goal is to open the space to all students, with current work on systems to allow and enable wider undergrad access and use. The dream? Digital-creation art crossed with machine shop work raised to the power of community. Come with a project you want to make. A whimsical idea, everyone has one. My friend asks about a custom one. I can make that! So can you.
