Sensing Nature

Milada and I went Mori Art Museum on Sunday to see an exhibit called, "Sensing Nature." It was really cool, but kind of small. The best exhibits were these two. The first one was a snow scene made with feathers and powered by fans that would timed to turn on and off. The effect was amazing, snow on the inside of a building in Tokyo! The only thing that ruined it was the two lines across the glass, can you see them? I wonder how many times the "snow" has moved around?
The best part of the exhibit was the tree one. When I first walked in, I thought we were supposed to be in a cave, but when I saw a hole I poked my head through and was delighted to see a whole world above the handmade paper cave. It was a huge white forest made out of paper! The artist encouraged viewers to try different areas to see many boundaries. It was amazing!

Those trees are phenomenal. I wish I could see that.
