~jurrasic adventure~

July 15th, 2010

My day began in the company of three kids, two grown-ups, a dog, and a curious kitty who would have been quite interested in a certain exhibit at the Museum of Jurrasic Technology…

Also on display were the Micromosaics of Henry Dalton. This image is through a microscope, and made of bits of butterfly wings.

We also saw the Floral Stereoradiographs of Albert G. Richards.

And a model of the Magnetic Oracle (Magnes, sive de Arte Magnetica) imagined by Athanasius Kircher.

The day ended in the rather swanky crash pad high above Echo Park, listening to the freeway, coyotes, and the eerie giggling of skunks. (who knew?)
