MOMA visit

So the other day we headed to MOMA with some friends to check out their 'Design in the Elastic Mind' exhibit. We love visiting MOMA (it was some people's 2nd visit to the exhibit) and it's a bit of reunion anytime we go back (esp for Tara).

About the exhibit: "It focuses on designers' ability to grasp momentous changes in technology, science, and social mores, changes that will demand or reflect major adjustments in human behavior, and convert them into objects and systems that people understand and use."

We highly recommend seeing it and it's running through May 12, so you still have time. Best to go on a day when you can absorb yourself in each piece as a many of them are interactive. (Maybe we'll go back for a 3rd time... when it's not so busy.) If you can't go in person they have an online exhibit that is both frustrating and absorbing..
