Scientist Simon Winder unfolds visual projections based off of the building blocks of the universe. Artists Ro Fonder Reeve, Ruth Arterburn, Ferdous Ahmed, Theresa Oborn, Julie Campbell bring their own variety of mixed media and assemblage art to this concoction. Other artists include: Hunter Barrett, Jack Daw, Jeff Larson & Andrew Cole (BioScope collaborative work), Jessica Jones, Jody Joldersma, Petraart3D, Taylor Hurley.

Special features of the opening date include Valentine gifts and cards. In addition, performance art by Krista Lee Wolfe, sonic effrontery by Dominique Nick’s Quartettettet Tet, and beats by Specs Wizard (Seattle Hip-Hop’s elder statesman) beginning at 8pm.
