They contacted me for my background working in information design, scientific media, and museums. I displayed my personal work, and helped to vet, curate, and lay out the exhibition on the day of the event.<\/p>\n<p>The event itself consisted of many local artists and designers, some selling wares, some simply displaying work. a band and a few DJ&#8217;s came to perform. a projection mapping dome was set up in the back yard and a screen playing science documentaries was also erected. A few educators performed educational experiments for wide eyed onlookers. Given the nature of the Red House art collective, it was a fairly free form, strange fusion of house party, pop up educational event, museum, and concert. I am proud to have been part of it.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_161\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-161\" style=\"width: 720px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/amberluning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/FB_IMG_1450714066393.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-161\" title=\"jam\" src=\"http:\/\/amberluning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/FB_IMG_1450714066393.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"http:\/\/amberluning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/FB_IMG_1450714066393.jpg 720w, http:\/\/amberluning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/FB_IMG_1450714066393-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-161\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">An unscheduled jam session breaks out in front of the anatomical drawings display<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_157\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-157\" style=\"width: 720px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/amberluning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/FB_IMG_1450714163231.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-157\" title=\"OscCom\" src=\"http:\/\/amberluning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/FB_IMG_1450714163231.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"http:\/\/amberluning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/FB_IMG_1450714163231.jpg 720w, http:\/\/amberluning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/FB_IMG_1450714163231-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-157\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Oscillation Communications experimental electronica<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_159\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-159\" style=\"width: 720px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/amberluning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/FB_IMG_1450714098600.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-159\" title=\"osccomduy\" src=\"http:\/\/amberluning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/FB_IMG_1450714098600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"http:\/\/amberluning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/FB_IMG_1450714098600.jpg 720w, http:\/\/amberluning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/FB_IMG_1450714098600-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-159\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Oscillation Communications performing with trademark switchboard and electronics equipment.
