This project is a collaboration with Suzanne Lettrick.  She commissioned SOURCE-X to respond to and build from the following synopsis of her graduate thesis at Harvard University Graduate School of Education:

This study bridges many disciplines (i.e., neuroscience, architecture, psychology, health, education, and technology) to explore how human physiology and the brain is affected by its environment, in particular space and architecture; how humans construct knowledge by engaging with their environment; and how technology has added new dimensions to the traditional ideas of space that we must consider when thinking about the new form of learning environment for learners in the 21st century. Since it is clear that environment affects the human brain and physiology in many ways and sculpts the brain as a result, it is important for humans to determine how to utilize architecture in order to promote desired learning outcomes. This study utilizes information from the aforementioned disciplines as well as the 21st century learning goals in order to create a new, dynamic, outrageous architecture for education. This new architecture for learning comprehensively bridges the physical, virtual, and cyber realms of learning in order to meet the needs of the "whole" student.

The first HUB is slated to be in San Francisco. Stay posted!
