February 7, 2010

Once again, a busy week. Unfortunately that’s par for the course now that Matt’s back at school and I’m taking a couple of classes of my own. But we still managed to squeeze in a visit to a museum yesterday. We decided that “new” had to mean “new to both of us” but it didn’t count if I, as a native, had visited the museum in elementary school. Because I don’t think there are any museums in this town they didn’t take us to in elementary school. Anyhow, we went to the MIT Museum yesterday.
It’s an odd place with an eclectic collection. Particular emphasis is placed on robotics …


artificial life …

and the future possible applications for this amazing technology.
They have a stunning collection of holograms, and a lot of kinetic sculptures (look up Arthur Ganson). It’s not a big museum but it’s fun and worth a visit.
Our new card is the Queen of Spades: Cook Thai for a week. I guess we’ll be buying some coconut milk.
