Researching in Historical Archives
This summer, I’ll be researching the relationship between environmentally focused city planning and emerging computer technology in the 1970s. I will be using my IDEA grant funding to travel to two archives to research this project: the Library of Congress and the Architectural Archives of the University of Pennsylvania. This will be my first timeContinue reading “Researching in Historical Archives”
Exploring New York: Inspirations and New Directions
Hello! My name is Alex Davidoff, and I have some updates on my project since I have returned from my research trip to New York. I am incredibly grateful that I was granted the opportunity to see some of the most influential galleries and see many well-established works in-person for the first time. While onContinue reading “Exploring New York: Inspirations and New Directions”
May Drone Report
My experience working on the grant project has been productive but stressful—though not necessarily because of the project itself. At the beginning of the month, I had a family emergency that required me to travel to India. While I was there, the city I was staying in became a target during a skirmish between IndiaContinue reading “May Drone Report”
Typing, Coding, Modeling Away
A little over two weeks into my data analysis and I have become even more excited about the research I am conducting. My research into Hispanic voters has really sharpened my data analysis skills and my ability to identify trends within the data. Currently, I have been using R Studio to combine seven editions ofContinue reading “Typing, Coding, Modeling Away”

To me, research bridges the gap between theory and real-world application. A perfect example of this was during my Strength of Materials course, where we studied howContinue reading “Resources and Reminiscing: My Journey into Research and FSU’s Role”
Living as Animals in the Digital Age
Throughout the summer, I am creating a body of artwork that explores human dissociation from the natural world and how we use technology to reinforce our separation. My painted sculptures are informed by video game environments which function as hybrid spaces, at once human, wild, and machine. I have spent this Spring semester curating aContinue reading “Living as Animals in the Digital Age”
Growing as a Researcher Through Disaster Damage Analysis
Throughout my academic and professional journey thus far, I have discovered that what drives me the most is mission-driven work that has a legitimate real-world impact. This project is precisely that, through developing a machine learning model to assess the building damage caused by natural disasters. This project fits me perfectly in its capabilities toContinue reading “Growing as a Researcher Through Disaster Damage Analysis”
