Every Saturday at 9 a.m., KNTU – FM 88.1 The One presents an episode of this series about the machines that make our civilization run and the people whose ingenuity created them.
This is the result of a project sponsored by the United Engineering Foundation to translate episodes of Engines of Our Ingenuity into Spanish. The Engines of Our Ingenuity, written and hosted by John Lienhard is heard nationally on Public Radio and produced by KUHF – 88.7FM Houston. The Spanish version Invenciones de la Inventiva hosted by Aymara Boggiano is presented weekly by KNTU – 88.1 FM at the University of North Texas.
Each episode tells about human creativity and invention — medicine and machinery, poetry and printing, architecture and airplanes — unexpected meetings of literature and technology or of music and mechanisms. While the stories circle back on engineering and technology, they reinforce the message that engineering is interwoven with every walk of life, with every dimension of human invention.
The overarching goal of this project is to increase awareness of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) in the general Hispanic community.
