This is probably the best art museum in the city even though its goal is to be plainly didactic and show off some dinosaur bones. Just look at those dioramas. It’s all Off. As my colleague Louis Osmosis might say, it’s giving kunst. Philanthropy chic. I love that some corners of this place haven’t seen any sprucing up since like the 90’s. It feels abandoned and too big for its own good; each section suggests varying degrees of attendance and funding so there’s a weird fragmented feel to walking through the entire museum. Some rooms have flickering lights and are mad dusty. Definitely for fans of Baudrillard’s Simulacra and Simulations lol! I recommend going in the winter time.

The taxidermy, scenery and landscape paintings are incredible. As is the rest of the museum, which until this last Sunday I hadn’t been to since I was a kid. The place makes you feel very small and temporary, in a good way I think.
I saw wolves hunting, moose fighting, a rabbit hiding, the bison walking on the Great Planes, became sad they were gone, and thought about Holden Caulfield.

tomorrow PI.FYI launches to the public
this project is the result of thousands of hours spent coding everything from scratch after I got laid off six months ago
no thiel-bucks or weirdo outsider money, just a pure desire to make something fun and true to Perfectly Imperfect’s day one goal of helping people find new things from real human beings, not algorithms or AI
a pure labor of love that I’ve been quietly plotting for two years and it’s completely self-funded from my (rapidly) dwindling savings account
so thank you for coming along for this weird ride 🫶 let's see where it goes
