This week I was on my first Podcast, where I talked about what water, infrastructure, and time.
"Groundwater levels are plunging throughout America. Are we running out of water? Are we running out of time? We talk with Civil/Environmental Engineering Student Brook Thompson about how we can best manage (or fight for) both. Tune in to see if Dave dies!"

ASU-Leonardo Imagination Fellowship
ASU-Leonardo and the Center for Science and the Imagination have announced the Leonardo Imagination Fellowship Program for fall 2020. The selected fellows shall participate in this prototype season of the fellowship. They will join a virtual program to explore experimental art-science innovation practices across multiple publishing and broadcast media platforms that imagine a regenerative, vibrant global future for all.
Fellows will propose and carry out hybrid creative projects and activities that integrate art and science for positive global impact aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The fellowship will support experimental work, especially across new and emerging media or publishing, to model new ways that art-science can advance resilience, justice, empathy, cooperation, generosity, trust and other qualities that make social systems and digital culture more human and more humane. The goal is not only to advance individual projects but also to connect diverse communities of practice and interest together for dialogue, engagement and empowerment.

ASU-Leonardo and the Center for Science and the Imagination (CSI) are proud to announce the Leonardo Imagination Fellowship Program in fall 2020. Fellows selected to participate in this prototype season of the fellowship will join a virtual program to explore experimental ArtScience innovation practices, across multiple publishing and broadcast media platforms, that imagine a regenerative, vibrant global future for all.
Fellows will propose and carry out hybrid creative projects and activities that integrate art & science for positive global impact (spanning local to planetary scope) aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We will support experimental work, especially across new and emerging media or publishing, to model new ways that ArtScience can advance resilience, justice, empathy, cooperation, generosity, trust, and other qualities that make social systems and digital culture more human and more humane. Through the fellowship we hope not just to advance individual projects but also to support collaborations that connect diverse communities of practice and interest as well as the existing networks of Leonardo and CSI together for dialog, engagement, and empowerment.
The inaugural Fellowship Program will offer up to three virtual fellowships, beginning in October 2020, for a duration of 8 weeks.
Each Leonardo Imagination Fellow will:
Be recognized across ASU-Leonardo, CSI, Leonardo/ISAST, and related platforms
Receive up to US$1,000 stipend as cash honorarium
Receive up to US$1,000 additionally, in support of direct expenses
Receive technical assistance from ASU to develop and complete their work
Receive access to Leonardo archives and ASU academic resources in pursuit of scholarly research and creative practice
Participate in a co-created Leo Mentor Matrix, identifying 1–2 mentors, 1–2 peers, and 1–2 protégés with whom they will engage throughout their fellowship
Lead an ASU LASER (Leonardo Art Science Evening Rendezvous) event featuring a presentation they offer, and another by a presenter whom they will select & invite
Share their Statement of Intent to be disseminated across ASU-Leonardo & CSI network
Produce two Fellowship pieces (statement, creative work, research documentation, digital media, immersive experience, etc.) to be shared midway through the fellowship period as a work-in-progress/process, and at the end as a culmination of the Fellowship
Participate in special and ongoing events and activities of ASU-Leonardo and CSI
Commit 2-4 hours per week throughout the duration of the fellowship for collaborative meetings and activities where the fellows can engage with one another and the Leonardo and CSI networks, and additional time for self-directed project work
Fellowships support diversity, equity, and inclusivity in ArtScience creative practice and scholarly inquiry that amplify voices of underrepresented talent, including but not limited to people overcoming or living with experiences of forced migration, exile, systemic racism, incarceration, discrimination, disability, marginalization, environmental justice, and other vulnerable circumstances. Priority consideration will be given to fellowships promoting social justice, antiracism, inclusion of underrepresented genders, and equity through dismantling systemic social injustice and humanizing digital culture.
