Hi everyone.

I am currently developing an exhibition called Science Studio where 
we are focusing on beauty of both art and science rather than using 
science to describe how an art piece is made.  This approach gives us 
a language to describe and interact with many kinds of beauty in the 
world around us be it man made or natural.  We are trying to give 
visitors a context in which to explore in spite of its origin.  All 
of our interactives are clustered around simple themes and we are 
giving visitors several opportunities to explore the simple theme 
through both art and natural phenomena. A conversation about beauty 
also takes place throughout the exhibit by showcasing quotes from 
famous artists and scientists.
