Booth Description:
Our booth will be an interactive installation. A "work" area in the first tent will teach the public about how fossil fuels are speeding up the natural cycle of global warming. Public will create a paper model molecule of CO2 from a orange tissue paper with a dinosaur print. This will be brought into the second tent, where they add it to our atmosphere model. The second tent will have canvas added to the corners to create a circular chamber (rather than square). The walls will be covered with our studies of natural migrations & cycles. The center will host a floor to ceiling transparent tube, about 1 meter in diameter. This tube is our model of Earth's atmosphere. The public will add their CO2 into the tube which will have fans blowing the tissues inside causing a visual representation of the CO2 build up. Our installation will include an artistic audio track with inset scientific readings about global warming. The "Door" into our installation will be a giant painting of a cracked clock that you walk into.
