Exhibit update. A single cell

So this is actually 2 years in the making 

it started as an concept to update the current exhibit

with some relevant current research on this old dusty

section of out of date cases cursed with this hospital blue 

color

i wind up using that to inspire a color pallette

its really a section of curiosities we have at the museum. 

skeletons, conjoined twins, cyclops baby and so

these specimens could and did serve as this section
of human dev anatomy

called a single cell...

but 

there was not much info, label text, which was fine, but no supporting

information, one of my colleagues, Emily Wilson, an anthropologist in the

human developmental anatomy section had a great research topic

that dealt with the limb development, and also co wrote other areas of the exhibit, these panels
contain her

research which I believe was presented at last years Mayo Clinics Symposium.

Congratulatons to her on a great job. Here Ms. Wilson (pictured below) is preparing
the specimens for redisplay in the exhibit.
hopefully
this redesign can elevate this exhibit to another level.
More to come...

Deinstall of AAOS in Baltimore

Went up to Baltimore
with our exhibits manager (Pic right)and registrar(pic left) to deinstall the AAOS wounded in action
exhibit.  This is the lower gallery where we packed and cataloged the artwork. Here we are struggling
with a poorly packaged -- not crated -- artwork, the tatters that you see here was how it was sent to us, in a cardboard box, ...nonetheless I really enjoyed

designing this exhibit for this space, and hope to 

have shows there in the future. Thanks AAOS UMB.

containers and their relevance to humans, where we send containers, containers inside containers inside containers...the house, the room, the closet...the way we live our lives. hmmm? ok whatever did this last night just a draft. enjoy

Heres an early rendering of the exhibit. Kathleen took the photo of the the museum floor and I used that as a canvas to map the 3-d design to it, Its good to see what things look like at scale. I used photoshop, illustrator, Indesign, Vectorworks, and Cinema 4-d.
