There’s no way you’re reading this, right?
I’ve noticed that the blog has received a lot less interaction lately. I get it–I’m pretty boring. I don’t feel like I have as much to write about anymore because the experiences I’m having are less novel.
We finished up our MCAs last week (YAY)! I’m happy that I was able to complete most of what I expected to in that time frame and I felt pretty happy with my project.
Now the rest of the time will be spent working on our actual project. We took some more scans today and once they’re prepared Dr. Li will send them to a professor somewhere else who has a printer that prints in very fine detail in material similar to human skin. Hopefully we will be able to use these fingers to fool a fingerprint reader.
In the meantime, I suggested that we could try to print a negative mold of a fingerprint, then cast it in a material similar to human skin–maybe some type of silicone? I think this would be pretty easy to do and it would also give us something to work on while we wait for the fingers to come back.
I don’t have much else to say! Here’s a song I like by one of my favorite artists, Lizzy McAlpine:
Bye!
Ha – I’m still reading these!
