the_museum_of_jurassic_technology jane in los_angeles. has anybody ever been? this past weekend was my first time, though he had talked it up quite a bit in the last few years. i'm sorry i didn't get to go with him. we smoked some pot and started walking from my cousin's apartment with his two roommates. we may have been stoned but i know that it was a much longer walk than we had originally planned. the highlights for me... off the top of my head... were the x-rays of flowers... the microart made from the scales on butterfly wings, "the world is bound with secret knots", the story of olivia, the trailer exhibition. hmm. the rotating bell wheel on the ceiling. the tower of babel (in order for the tower to reach the next heavenly body - the moon - it would have to be over 200,000 miles high, thereby tipping the earth off its rotation)... 081020 ... Ouroboros I grew up 1 mile from it and still have never been is embarrassed 081021 ... nom hmm 081021 ... Ouroboros I went yesterday! exhibitions included: The World Is Bound With Secret Knots: Athanasius Kircher and No One May Ever Have the Same Knowledge Again: Letters to Mount Wilson Observatory and Garden of Eden On Wheels: Collections from Los Angeles Area Mobile Home Parks and Lives of Perfect Creatures: Dogs of the Soviet Space Program and many more followed by almond cookies and black tea served in glass mugs and the singer from the legendary pink dots, fucking strange fantastic stuff 081121 ... jane ouroboros, what did you think of the "olivia" exhibit? that was the only one i had difficulties understanding....... 081121 ... Ouroboros the logical (crazy/brain-hurting) alphabet one? 081122 ... jane yes 081122 ... Ouroboros I saw Olivia after 2 hours in the museum, after drinking tea and cookies, and I could not even stay in the room- the unrecognizable patterns of letters made my brain hurt in a serious way. SO no. But I do intend to go back... 081123 what's it to you? who go blather from
