Hi, all,

Here's a paragraph from the MacArthur Website:

"David Wilson is an artist, a designer, and the curator of the Museum of
Jurassic Technology, his own art installation and a provocative commentary on
how we organize and archive cultural artifacts. Through his collection of
biological, archaeological, and cultural curiosities, displayed as 'exhibits'
in a network of little rooms, Wilson blurs the distinctions among museum,
mausoleum, and library to challenge our acquiescence to the traditional means
of presenting and preserving knowledge. His work underscores the fragility of
our beliefs, and at the same time, highlights the remarkable potential of the
human imagination."

There's more information about him on this page:
