A new delivery of archival boxes sits ready to be filled by archivist Bob Malme. Bob has catalogued a number of our larger archival collections!
This knife box, with packing shavings and sliding wooden top, found its way home from a garage sale. It was a good subject, stayed right were I told it to.
There is a live monarch in that box. Slip the elastic, lift the lid, and wait for it to fly away to Mexico. Most monarchs only live 2-3 weeks, but every year during late summer a generation hatches that can survive up to eight months, allowing them to migrate down to Mexico, wait out the winter, and then start to head back. They won't make it back. They start mating again in the spring in places like Texas, and their kids will only live 2-3 weeks, flying north the whole time. Eventually they get to Canada and the cycle starts over again. The whole point of the tagging and Monarch Watch is to figure out how they do it.
Each year, Gallery Route One in Point Reyes invites over a hundred artists to create unique works of art using a wooden box.
Here are the inspiring artworks they created this year: they range in style from whimsical to poignant and thought-provoking. These photos were taken on closing day, when the gallery organized a live auction for each of this year’s 150 boxes. The proceeds support the gallery’s exhibits and community programs.
Two of the boxes were created by members of our art community: Howard Rheingold (a.k.a. Dr. Rindbrain) contributed an illuminated box called ‘Magical’, while Geo Monley and Meryl Rubenstein made ‘Les Puzzles.’
Members of ‘Pataphysical Studios came to cheer for their peers -- Dr. Really was the highest bidder for Dr. Rindbrain’s piece, which was thus kept in the family. After the show, we all went to Stellina to celebrate over a nice dinner.

A tiny green velvet covered jewellery box has come into its own today.
today i received 72 copies of my finished novel, which comes out later this month. i finished writing the book at the end of june 2007, so it's nice to finally see it in print and ready for bookstores!
Screenprinted, velveteen-lined, pine box...with Coney Island microfiber necktie.
By Cyberoptix TieLab.
Box is varnished and each one is somewhat different due to the differences in woodgrain pattern.
Two-part box holds one necktie comfortably and protects from wrinkling in transit.

Read about it and the series here on my blog :
Even though both boxes are identical, Wrangler was annoyed that Freddy was in the box that he considered his. After an unsuccessful attempt to evict Freddy, Wrangler begrudgingly settled down in the other box.
Shame that Rich didn't read what it said on the box for our rather large subwoofer before dropping it on the amplifier. Luckily both survived, if a little dented.

I've rescued several box turtles from the highway over the years. I usually just let them go in the back yard. When I see a box turtle in the yard I wonder whether it's one I found on the road or whether it just wandered in from somewhere.
