September 2009
We hope you have your construction helmets on, because this month we're building new life forms (glow-in-the-dark bacteria), old life forms (dinosaurs), and public art projects (with polka dots!). We'll also learn how to build a taller human and how many blue feathers it takes to impress a bowerbird.
Over in the MUSEum, you can take a gander at the Memory Artist contest winners and enter the new Edible Architecture contest. Meanwhile, reader Brittany Metts is entertaining us in the Muserology cafe. But we're always looking for new Muserologists. Will YOU be next?
