BGSU offers new Master of Design in Integrative Design degree in Fall 2021
Program prepares designers to be collaborative, strategic and social innovators
By Julie Carle
Bowling Green State University’s graphic design program is creating the next generation of designers to be collaborative, strategic thinkers and social innovators.
The new Master of Design (MDes) in Integrative Design degree at BGSU teaches creative, strategic and collaborative skillsets that prepare designers to think bigger. The inaugural program starts in Fall 2021.
“Design is no longer solely a brochure or a logo,” said Jenn Stucker, chair of BGSU’s graphic design division in the BGSU School of Art. “We think about design in a bigger context and not just an object.”

Many of UC Merced s researchers will be part of UC-funded projects with colleagues at other campuses.
January 19, 2021 - By Lorena Anderson, UC Merced - Two new projects designed and led by UC Merced researchers will address challenges facing many Californians wildfire recovery and agricultural labor but will also have global reach.
Both are funded through the University of California’s prestigious Multicampus Research Programs and Initiatives (MRPI) Awards. In addition to these two projects, six UC Merced faculty members are co-primary investigators on projects led by other UC campuses and about a dozen more UC Merced faculty members are participating in the eight MRPI-supported projects.

Abstract The Game of Life cellular automaton is a classic example of a massively parallel collision-based computing device. The automaton exhibits mobile patterns, gliders, and generators of the mobile patterns, glider guns, in its evolution. We show how to construct basic logical operations, AND, OR, NOT in space-time configurations of the cellular automaton. Also, decomposition of complicated Boolean functions is discussed. Also in this paper advantages of our technique are demonstrated on an example of a method for text encryption by mapping text to binary space. This method is based on glider and rules of Game of Life.
Will the Second Wave Mean No Toilet Paper Again?
Now that a second wave of the pandemic has hit, what will happen to the supply chain and the CPG sector?

In March of 2020, the United States and many parts of the world saw consumers flocking to stores and stocking up on goods to prepare for an unknown future during the first modern pandemic. The world was introduced to the term “panic buying” as individuals cleared out store shelves to stock up, leaving many others without needed essentials as the supply chain became strained.
SDCE detailed this first wave of supply chain stress from the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, discussing how the virus impacted the supply chain, the cause of the consumer-packaged-goods outages and the overreaching effects these issues would cause.

The skills behind the legendary sharpness of wootz steel were once forgotten, but Andy Extance talks to the researchers unsheathing its secrets
From beside his computer David Edge picks up something that marks his office as unique: a 19th century Afghan wootz steel dagger. Its chaotic, swirling patterns are striking as the blade is tilted. Although Edge is head of conservation at the Wallace Collection in London, UK, which has many exotic knives and swords, he personally owns this dagger. The patterns’ similarity to the rings that oil forms on the surface of water makes it obvious why the alloy is sometimes called watered steel.
