Wow, I kept thinking she was gay and then I kept checking the list of out gay players and was like, oops guess I was wrong ♀️ but really GUESS I WAS RIGHT!!
Stanford engineers have developed a low-cost, plastic-based textile that, if woven into clothing, could cool your body far more efficiently than is possible with the natural or synthetic fabrics in clothes we wear today.
Describing their work in Science, the researchers suggest that this new family of fabrics could become the basis for garments that keep people cool in hot climates without air conditioning.
“If you can cool the person rather than the building where they work or live, that will save energy,” said Yi Cui, an associate professor of materials science and engineering and of photon science at Stanford.
This new material works by allowing the body to discharge heat in two ways that would make the wearer feel nearly 4 degrees Fahrenheit cooler than if they wore cotton clothing.
Cantor Arts and Stanford Campus, shot on MiNT InstantKon RF70. I never get tired of walking on campus and wandering around. It feels so lush with all the trees. One of my favorite places in the Bay Area to visit cause it’s free, and no one really minds that you take photos.
Richard Serra’s piece, “Sequence” at The Cantor Arts Center at Stanford. It’s finally back after being at SFMoMA after all these years. It’s really nice being able to not drive too far to see it again. Really great piece. I figured i’d do a little bit of contributing for Polaroid Week this week since i’ve still got film in my type 100 camera.
RIP to peel apart film. I won’t miss you, TBH. It just makes too much of a mess and takes FOREVER to dry.
