CIT Multiverse 3795... A Public Installation for the San Jose Childrens Museum

Well on our way, this rag-tag team of misfits navigate the great black universe. Watch, ...as the very fabric of existence unfolds before your eyes. The birth of planets and solar systems, the tireless and neverending battle of navigating through astroid belts and war-ing pla-nets. Avoid space worms at all costs and try not to get burned by solar flares, but most of all, enjoy the show!!!

SUPERTRACK Open Make

Our second Open Make was a whirlwind of fast cars, zebra stripped tape, hot glun action, and art saturated mayhem. Jesse Roadkill and Michael Murnane along with the Bedford Gallery and their magic team of volunteers took the unknown number of humans, young and old, on a car making frenzy. Long live cardboard !!!! The abundant and forgiving medium.
