Saturday (7/28) with Beautiful Information.
What do surrealist sea creatures, psychedelic slime molds and the mechanical fuzz of raw NASA imaging have in common?They’re all part of Beautiful Evidence, a one-night experimental science cinema. Curated by Claire L. Evans, science journalist and one-half of the conceptual pop group YACHT, Beautiful Evidence will pair strange artifacts of science on film with live scores composed by Portland musicians Jeffrey Jerusalem and Golden Retriever.
