A week of culture

February 9th, 2010

Daniel came to London so it was a great excuse to see/do as much as we could for the week.

Saatchi Gallery

Shunt Money. This was sooooo cooool. They built a three level container inside a warehouse then throughout the show you are taken up and down the stairs whilst actually being a part of the show. I would love to spoil the entire experience by explaining it. But maybe another time. It was just so so so good.

Amazing and delicious as always.

Darwin Centre Cocoon

January 31st, 2010

We went to the Darwin Centre Cocoon in the Natural History Museum for reasons that we were just curious, I guess. During the day you can watch scientists working, but we went during a late night opening session of the museum so no one was there except one woman who entertained us for a little while.

Everything seems to be interactive now. We were all given little cards with barcodes to scan when you want to store information for browsing later on the internet.
