The Crystal†Matrix

My MATRIX vision (1991-2006) was integrated into the MIT UROP at the Ctr. for Materials Science and Eng in 2006. See MIT LINKS (1),(2:see p.3-45)

We presented one of the first models for global learning involving free-access to on-line resources involving the people. Our "hub model" preceded the current University of the People, which recently partnered with New York University, the Global Network University.

The MATRIX Network is a connected learning community. This connectivity involves information transfer for learning purposes (e-learning resources) and human interaction through internship and mentoring. This program was patterned after the Crystal Matrix, which is my view of the connectivity and organization of all vibrations before and after they take form.
