----/ The Squid List /-------------------------------------------------- Nanoscape: Under Construction
Saturday and Sunday, July 8th and 9th 11:00am-4:00pm Included in the price of admission to the Exploratorium ----/ Event Description /----------------------------------------------- Construction Takes Place Saturday & Sundays, July 8-9, 22-23, and August 12-13 Exhibit runs through September 10, 2006 The Exploratorium invites the public to help build a scientific barn- raising - the assemblage of close to 100,000 "atoms" to be one of the largest, possibly the largest, model environment of a nanoscale landscape ever constructed. Floor-to-ceiling carbon nanotubes, hanging fabric sculptures based on the symmetry of silicon thin film crystals as well as proteins, and artist versions of molecular machinery, will gradually come together to celebrate the known and speculative aspects of emerging nanotechnology. Once constructed, the public-built nanotubes, proteins and silicon crystals will fill the Exploratorium's 60-foot-high large central space and will remain on exhibit through September 10, 2006.
