"Smart" Phone Photography
Have you been wondering how you could better understand the camera that you already have in your pocket and how to improve your photography? Join Manohar Srikanth, PhD ’13 and former Camera & Imaging Technologist at Apple, to learn how!
This session will shed some light on the camera tech and photography tips for anyone, but mostly MIT folks! By understanding how the camera works and by knowing the relationship between camera settings and photographic outcomes, we can improve our photography. We’ll understand some of the differences between a large camera (DSLR) and a smartphone camera and see how well we can transfer DSLR skills to a Smartphone camera. This course will be fun and quench the thirst for those used to drinking from the fire hose! -
Awaken: Tibetan Buddhist Art and the Path to Self-Discovery
Explore the intersection between Buddhist practice and Western scientific understanding of the mind via the lens of Tibetan art. The works in the Asian Art Museum's recent special exhibition were explicitly intended to awaken novices to the true nature of reality, and to culminate in a vision of clarity that offers a sharp contrast to the distracted confusion of modern life. MITCNC participants will be guided by exhibit co-organizer and Tibetan Art expert Jeffrey Durham. -
To Bee or Not to Bee: All About Beekeeping
Learn about the amazing world of beekeeping, and join us to explore the inside of an active beehive from the comfort of your home.

One former participant wrote: "I've planned events for Stanford alumni for 4 years, and this is the most interesting one I personally have experienced." Presenters Tiffany and Brian Neal maintain a home apiary of 7 beehives with their two kids. -
