Pretty cool little ‘trailer’ for the Milstein Division of the New York Public Library, created by our friends at Illustrated Radio. Jon helped out on the shoot, and a bit of his music and sound editing ended up in there as well… fun stuff!

History has secrets - and you can unlock them at the Library. That’s the theme of this pretty darn amazing new “suspense trailer” highlighting our incredible Milstein Division of United States History, Local History and Genealogy (which is often featured on the show “Who Do You Think You Are?” and can be used to trace family histories). Just watch it - it’s awesome.
Click through below for some beautiful shots of Station Identification on top of the Foshay Tower during last week’s Northern Spark festival! Video to come…

The first view of the Station Identification when stepping out onto the observation deck. Here now, at the end of the night, visitors await the sunrise.
Cubicle Cafe: Northern Spark, 2011
Great writeup of Northern Spark by Peter at Cubicle Cafe. Looks like a wonderful night, wish we could’ve made it to the rest of the events!
My night started out on the Mississippi Megalops, a project of Works Progress. The river ride was one of the highlights of the night. Learning about the river, and seeing sunset over St. Paul.
After the ride we headed over to see Jim Campbell’s Scattered Light. This actually looked really neat coming in on the boat ride, you could actually see the silhouettes of the folks walking across the array.
From this point on till dawn, I don’t have a lot of photos. I feel like we just missed a lot of things (like food at food carts, performances, unannounced bus stops), and a lot more things just weren’t tested well before the night of and didn’t work out. I wish I remembered to take a picture of the Sperm & Egg creations, an interactive game, there could have been more interactive activities. Crazy, glow stick capture the flag in Loring Park, with a burning trash can bonfire was nice, and Dianne Willow’s glowing plankton were pretty as well.
The best came at the end of the night, visiting the Notion Collective’s Station Identification. The sea of noise created by their many radios, the delirious participants, some drunk or just tired, and sun rise over Minneapolis was a great way to end the night.
