Kevin Van Aelst

Back in school, I sucked at Math and Biology. I might have been an A student if I had a teacher like Kevin Van Aelst!! This New York Times Magazine photographer creatively uses mundane food and household clutter to depict Scientific and Mathematical concepts. These delightful images would certainly have jogged my memory!

  3. I would've learned about chromosomes so much easier had they been gummy worms.

    That's my idea of learning!
