Tuesday, June 10, Exhibit: "Phylum"  — Art and science collide in “Phylum,” a video installation created by Colorado College alumni Lane Hall and Lisa Moline that explores issues of scale, representation and the mapping of knowledge.

Composed of connected fragments, the installation inverts relationships between microcosm and macrocosm. Scientific and quasi-scientific visualizations bump against poetic video bits and pieces; these fragments are interspersed with captions which hint at meaning through humor, direction and misdirection.

“Phylum” presents a study in how we seek narrative sense through scientific visualization, and how the results are often ambiguous, tenuous and poetic.

The installation includes audio from Colorado College’s Bowed Piano Ensemble.

The exhibition will be on display through July 18. I.D.E.A Space summer hours are 2:30 p.m.–9:30 p.m. Tuesday and Thursday; 1 p.m.–9:30 p.m. Wednesday and Friday; and 2:30 p.m.–7:30 p.m. Saturday. 2:30 p.m., I.D.E.A Space in the Edith Kinney Gaylord Cornerstone Arts Center, free
