“I think about how astonishing the tools of discovery have become and I think about how these new tools require concepts that demand integration , imagination and  empathy - ideas and projects and experiences that are collaborative and  are very imaginative and require time and patience since they will need discussion and testing and prototypes and poetry to communicate their intent.” ~ Edwin Schlossberg, 2025 Last Lectures
