White-
Joseph Grigely uses poetic
taxonomy to articulate the way he experiences white. Through acute observation Joseph
Grigely notices the intimacy of a twinkly.
In the section titled Prepositional whites, both in the twinkly as an individualized and secretive
object as well as suggesting that the consumer is the only one who
experience the twinkly
white organs. The scenarios that Joseph Grigely presents through his micro categories of whites opens a dialogue
between the museum and metaphor and the power of words as symbol. I think
whites by Joseph Grigely
is an excellent example of the potential of conveying the expansiveness of
taxonomy and addressing ideas gone unnoticed.
Fred Wilson also addresses the idea
of poetic
taxonomy thought the arrangement of found objects, building commentary and narrative
in and around the museum function and presentation of truth.
The museum
of Jurassic technology- having grown up in Los Angeles the museum of Jurassic technology
is something that has always been in my conscience. Having not visited the museum
till I was fifteen the objects inside the museum were unknown and unimaginable.
However the museum as a myth was prevalent in my Angelenos culture. In looking back on this specific time period of
knowing about the museum but not visited, the museum severed as a symbol of otherness
and possibility, both challenging the authority and exhibition tactics in other
established museums, in los Angeles. Enclosed and mysterious the museum of Jurassic
technology is quiet comparatively other well-known museum in Los Angeles and requires
an iteration of human intimacy to find out about its existence. The
significance of feral institutions such as the museum of Jurassic technology in
relation to established insinuations mirrors a large social dynamic of
intimacy, exhibitionism, the unknown, truth and venerability. Placing emphasis
on the building itself significance in side Los Angeles culture.
