HCSSiM 2006 pictures
We did a lot of stuff this summer. Remember that Saturday when we did four different activities at once?
 |
This is Kai Cao working with Sally Wolfe on a dissection of a dodecahedron which transforms into a rhombic dodecahedron; Cale Pennington is in the background and Annie Huang in the foreground. |
 |
Then Cynthia Vinzant displays the ability of the rhombic dodecahedra to tile space. |
 |
This is Youn Kim, Sam Markson, and June Jhe building Five Intersecting Tetrahedra while Lawrence Valby observes. |
 |
This second group includes Michael Casey, Emma Cohen, and Chun Ye. |
 |
In another room, Azi Horowitz, Harrison Brown, and Alex Weigel worked on a 120-cell... |
 |
...while Brendan Folie, Marshall Carpenter, and Danny Zhu worked on a second 120-cell. |
 |
Meanwhile, Richard Yeung stood atop Nate Harman while they worked with Vlad Sotirov, Zeb Engberg, Ashley Nagel, Carl Hoffman, Thuy-Lan Lite, Andy Soffer, Dan Moore, and Amber Verser to transform string into polyhedra. |
 |
(They're performing the transformation in this picture.) |
Not pictured: the toga party, any dance parties, story time, ...but perhaps the most consistently popular activity of the summer was the Cheese Quasi.
 |
Pictured facing us are the chief perpetrators Ofir Nachum and Eliot Kim. |
 |
Attendees include Alex Weigel, Nate Harman, Ashley Nagel, Cary Malkiewich, and Brendan Folie; Eliot Kim is, of course, the host. |
There were also many Zome escapades. Below, we have Carl Hoffman holding a creation around the jubilant Michael Gottlieb, one of Emma Cohen's crazy concoctions, and a two-floor tower initiated by Kai Cao.
Wing Mui gave a rap-proof of Godel's Incompleteness Theorem during one Prime Time, with the assistance of Hannah Alpert and Azi Horowitz.
Above: Everyone with their donated student copies of Mathematica, and below, everyone on the last day of the program.
