Museum of Jurassic Technology

I was introduced to this museum by my friend Alli. We went here one afternoon and I just fell in love with it. It's the most randomly awesome place EVER. It's in Culver City and it is, if I'm not mistaken, an art project by a former student at CalArts. It contains a lot of pretty random exhibitions that occasionally change.


Dave's not so skilled in the jumping pictures category.


Some of my fave stuff there include a story about a bat that flies through walls by some crazy freakish flying ability. The scientists eventually build a wall thick enough so that he can't fly through it and they trap him in there and have the piece of the wall on display. Whether this is a true story is questionable, but interesting nonetheless. A gallery with portraits of dogs from the former Soviet Union that have gone into space. A section that teaches you about the history of cat's cradle and strings for you to practice with.

Tea room with the brothers horsing around.

Truly one of my favorite places in this city that I love so much.

and...just for today's cuteness...
and in case you haven't already seen this....a live feed of 6 shiba inu puppies in San Francisco. everyone at work has it going on in the background while they work on some super high brow art history stuff....aaah! too much cute!
