Another car exhibit in a Massachusetts
art museum
04/18/2005 02:34 AM

In an attempt to build up my skills in the Piper Arrow, an example of the "complex" airplane that must be used for an FAA flight instructor flight test, I went out to western Massachusetts on Saturday to MassMOCA, an electronic components factory converted to contemporary art museum.  The most arresting exhibit currently is by the explosion artist Cai Guo-Qiang.  He tricked out Ford Tauruses with fiber optics to simulate rockets and fireworks then hung them from the ceiling in one of MassMOCA's largest rooms.  This is well worth the trip to the North Adams airport (KAQW; surrounded by mountains and not suitable for IFR or night operations).  If you were bored by the car exhibit at Boston's Museum of Fine Arts you'll like this one.

ht tp://www.caiguoqiang.com/project_detail.php?id=114&iid=517 sh ows some photos.  The exhibit closes in October 2005.

There is a place in Los Angeles I've never visited, but would love to: The Museum of Jurassic Technology. It is the subject of Lawrence Wechsler's delightful 1995 book, Mr. Wilson's Cabinet Of Wonder: Pronged Ants, Horned Humans, Mice on Toast, and Other Marvels of Jurassic Technology. One Amazon reviewer called the museum "a straight-faced, Andy Kaufman-esque joke, blending exhibits that look too nutty to be true, but are true, with outright hoaxes." ...

What to do in LA: see NANO exhibit at
LACMA
12/26/2003 07:57 PM
Recently opened at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art: "nano," a cool art/science exhibit for geeks of all ages:
nano [is] an exhibition that merges the arts and the atom by presenting the world of nanoscience through a participatory aesthetic experience. The exhibition, a collaboration between LACMALab and a UCLA team of nanoscience, media arts, and humanities experts, is free to the public and runs through September 6, 2004 in LACMA's Boone Children's Gallery.

This groundbreaking project provides a greater understanding of how art, science, culture, and technology influence each other. The exhibition addresses sophisticated subject matter that is especially relevant for the next generation. Modular, experiential spaces using embedded computing technologies engage all of the senses to provoke a broader understanding of nanoscience and its cultural ramifications. The various components of nano are designed to immerse the visitor in the radical shifts of scale and sensory modes that characterize nanoscience, which works on the scale of a billionth of a meter. Participants can feel what it is like to manipulate atoms one by one and experience nano-scale structures by engaging in art-making activities.

Occult book exhibit


Occult book exhibit 06/02/2004 12:10 PM
xoccmoon Here's a stunning collection of rare occult books from the Monash University Library in Australia. From the 1998 exhibition ca talog:
"So great is the variety of 'occultisms,' that it is often difficult to find any connecting link between these traditions. The word is derived from the Latin, occullere, to cover over, to hide, or conceal, and all occult belief systems lay claim to some esoteric or hidden knowledge, but so too do many religions and mystical and philosophical systems, which are not defined as 'occult'. It is also clear - at least as far as those 'occult systems' with their own complex cosmologies are concerned - that what might be perceived by an outsider as "occultism", is to the practitioner quite possibly religion. This difference of perception serves to underline the only definite link that can clearly be demonstrated between these disparate 'occultisms': all were (or are) belief systems which existed (or exist) either on the margins of, or altogether outside, the mainstream religious or philosophical orthodoxies of the cultures in which they evolved."

Pete Gray is forming a new robotics group in Massachusetts. If you're in the area and would like to get together with other homebrew robotics people, visit the Yahoo! Groups MassRobotics page and sign up. At present they haven't settled on a name for the group or an initial meeting date. Pete says, "At the moment, the group is just an 'online' entity, created just this month...although if enough people join up, I'm sure we'll become a 'real world' entity." You may recognize Pete from his work with New Micros on C compilers and assemblers for the Motorola DSP56F80x that's used in the IsoPods.

New kinds of marriages in Massachusetts


New kinds of marriages in Massachusetts 01/07/2004 04:19 PM

Our home state of Massachusetts has been in the news recently for a positive decision on gay marriages.  It would seem that the next natural step would be state recognition of other types of alternative unions.Apparently we don't think heterosexuality is worthy of special legal treatment anymore.  Why should duality be favored then over plurality?  Why can't a voluntarily polygamous family or polyandrous family apply for a marriage license?  The cultural and cross-cultural precedent for polygamy is certainly much stronger than for gay marriage.

My friend Richard and I were flying to Bradley Field in Connecticut today (excellent airplane museum) and it occurred to us that this could solve America's health insurance problem.  Consider 50 uninsured people.  They could all get married in one big union.  One of the 50 could take a job with really good health benefits, e.g., for the government.  The other 49 would then get spousal health benefits.
