Museums: More news from the installation front!
Here is the latest entry of Cinnabar’s installation diary, by Jonathan Katz (Executive Director) and Jeannie Lomma (project manager)
Project
: Kimball Natural History Museum at the new California Academy of Sciences
Opening date
: 27 September 2008
Location
: Golden Gate Park, San Francisco
The Cinnabar install team is finishing up all the structures on the east side of the building including the installation of Bug Rug, a floor interactive developed by Snibbe Interactive, that will entertain visitors of all ages while educating them about how researchers capture insects on the Madagascar forest floor.
We are starting installation of the modules for the California exhibit on the building’s west side. You can see the first module - Oceans- in place under the skeleton of the blue whale in the photo. Beautiful Golden Gate Park is ever-present through the new museum’s window wall.
