It’s not often that I write a post in this blog about my SciMatics course, but this is a little different than your used to from a science or math course. Recently we have been studying the properties of light. Reflection, refraction, opacity, transparency, translucency and more. But we’were also learning about pioneers in the field of math an sciences. We learned a lot about a man named Ibn-al Hatham. With his invention of the camera obscura, he proved his theory that all light travels in straight lines.

For our project we were to incorporate all of these elements into one piece, while also telling the First Nations story of How the Raven Stole the Sun.
