I truly hope people are enjoying the Museum apt! Here are some bringing up the new acquisitions for our unboxing. Also at the museum film secret speakeasy You might string up a 16mm projector! Then check out the Museum Moviola live on the Broadway stage for the play Good Night, and Good Luck!! I was so happy to see it and people enjoyed! That moviola edited Pee Wee Herman’s Big Adventure too and the first season. Then I hope you enjoy more dear people at the Museum apt with an homing pigeon trophy and more!

If you’ve never been to The Museum of InterestingThings ( @museumthings )you must add it to your NYC bucket list. Curator Denny Daniels is as unique and fascinating as the objects he collects. Carolina and I watched a silent “film”, saw a record etched on a hospital x-ray, and even learned a scientific fact about the way our brain processes images. For the full scoop, read my latest @substack (link in bio) #I❤️NY

Sometimes a school comes to visit the museum with a really cool teacher! He visited the museum film speakeasy coincidentally last Sunday too. Before a show I often pack a banana, now you have proof! lol. And 🍪🍪🍪. We do corp and non profit events like this one for Inform your community. Doing them again next Friday too! Dear violinist played!! Then we did a historical society. Lastly an apt presentation with what must be our absolute youngest visitor! Let’s see if we have a budding inventor 🙂❤️

Last week was my birthday and the first pic is a bday at the museum! I have the world’s largest collection of bday 45s. We played captain kangaroo singing happy birthday. Then we played a WW2 Japanese fog horn and xray record from communist USSR. Ladies checking out a real suffrage voting poll book and organ grinder monkey & 1905 3D brownie! Then check out the sweet little girl using a camera Obscura and editing 16mm film on my moviola! At the speakeasy people try 3D stereoscopes and everyone tried to string up the 16mm projectors! Lastly someone got to check out The Hobbit & Star Trek computer games & the first IBM (well the time clock) and a real WW1 dough boys army hat too! Enjoy! 🙂

These antique Indonesian marionettes I used for an art film I did on Anastasia that showed at the Hermitage. The Museum apt shows are going great. Check out the 1950s Sputnik barometer. Then enjoy my collection of suffrage antiques at a senior center. Then we enjoyed the 1965 Fisher Price record player with a birthday record by BB King! Lastly those are some of the 16mm films I brought for the ladies themed film speakeasy. Enjoy the Museum things!
