EMP Museum

About

Walking along Seattle's Belltown district, a building composed of sharp curves and reflective glass catches the eye. Entering through what feels like a drive-in opening a door to the future, the rhythm of electronic music cuts through the air, welcoming the visitor. Characters from Star Wars pass by, and past a corner glinting with Trevor Chay's music equipment, Nirvana's recording sessions and Jimi Hendrix's guitar flow on, transcending time. Within a space mixing video and sound, the roots of popular culture and its present seem to coexist.
