Mens et Manus (Mind and Hand) A variant of the MIT logo, showing a blacksmith with his hammer, a scholar with his book, and a central pillar with books and what I think is a magic lamp thing like the one Aladdin had. It symbolizes the synergy of mind and hand- the theoretical and practical, an idea that is also found at the essence of origami. This was one of my entries for the 2005 MIT Origami Competition.
