and amplitude via performance, installation, fabrication and digital
media. His work combines sophisticated technology with crude humble
structures, inviting listeners to question their relationships with
time, technology, space, sound and silence. He received his BA from

Michael Wilson and Chris Weisbart

Michael Wilson and Chris Weisbart of the Natural History Museum of Los
Angeles will be presenting on the incorporation of DIY and open source
technologies in the museum exhibit world, where the need for
interpretive and educational technology is often not matched by
budgets. The team will present a lecture on projects they have
developed for the NHM as well as a current project that Michael and
Chris have been working on in collaboration with students at New
Mexico Highlands University dealing with the Miller-Urey experiment.
