TES: Artists of the past and the future
This week on the Evolution Show: Artists of the past and the future! We are very excited to introduce our brand new scholarship event! If you saw some of our previous episodes, then you know how much we found education to be such an important part of own experience and something we want to support in our community. So in this episode, we're interviewing Liangsuting, this year's scholarship recipient, who is an aspiring artists currently studying at FIT. We're also taking a look at art from the past, namely Albertus Seba's, since he commissioned many wonderful pieces depicting the specimens in his own cabinet of curiosities!

The Evolution Show: Artist Spotlight
his week on the Evolution Show: John Weisgerber! In addition to minerals, bones, and skulls, we also have some very unique pieces made by artists. This week, we’re doing a spotlight on John Weisgerber’s artwork. Cast in resin and coupled with a very unique powder-like finish, these pieces are an amazing representation of the historical artifacts that they were inspired from. In this episode, we look at three items from our John Weisgerber collection, and we hope that you find them as intriguing as we do! We’re always looking for artists that use history inspired or nature inspired work, or even artists who use our products in their pieces. If you are or know an artist that you think would be a good fit for us, please comment below or email us at [email protected]!

Spotlight on: Coprolite - Ep15.8 (Mini)

Spotlight on: Diaphonized Rats - Ep15.7 (Mini)
This week on The Evolution Show: diaphonized rats!
Diaphonization is a chemical process where the flesh is made transparent by soaking in a protein-eating enzyme, and the bones and cartilage are colored by calcium-seeking dyes! This method of preparation was invented in the 1970s by biologists who wanted a way to study animal anatomy that left the skeletal structure intact. Diaphonized rats are an awesome example of this weird and wonderful procedure!
