On October 4, Birch Aquarium at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego unveiled their latest exhibition blending art and science into one unique experience with Embodied Pacific: Ocean Unseen.

Embodied Pacific: Ocean Unseen invites you to explore Scripps Institution of Oceanography and Indigenous science through the eyes of contemporary artists. These installations offer guests the chance to engage in scientific exploration through immersive, interactive experiences. Collectively, the exhibition asks us to consider how ocean science technology is not just about “high-tech” but also very much about the tools we use to shape our understanding of the ocean’s unseen mysteries.

Eighteen artists across 10 projects come together in one immersive exhibition. Installations include:

• Archiving an Aquarium, Hans Baumann and James Nisbet + Birch Aquarium

• Fish Phone Booth, Ash Eliza Smith and Robert Twomey

• How to Look Into the Ocean (Taking a Deep Breath), Claudine Arendt + Zooglider

• Kumeyaay Ha Kwaiyo, Stan Rodriguez with Priscilla Ortiz, Andrew Pittman and Nan Renner

• La Jolla Forest, Dwight Hwang and Oriana Poindexter + Mohammad Sedarat of the Smith Laboratory

• Mosaic Ocean, Judit Hersko + Jaffe Laboratory

• Our Worlds, Catherine Eng and Kilma Lattin

• Passengers of Change, Danielle McHaskell, Joe Riley and Audrey Snyder + the Smith Laboratory

• R/P FLIP R.I.P., Rachel Mayeri + FLIP

• Superradiance. Embodying Earth., Memo Akten and Katie Peyton Hofstader + SOARS

• Unbleached, Scott McAvoy + Sandin and Smith Laboratories

Embodied Pacific: Ocean Unseen is one of the six locations of Embodied Pacific which features projects by 30 artists working with researchers in laboratories, field sites and archives in Southern California and the Pacific Islands. This partnership between UC San Diego Visual Arts and Birch Aquarium at Scripps invites immersive engagement in oceanography, Indigenous design and critical craft through exhibitions, workshops and programs.

Embodied Pacific is among more than 70 exhibitions and programs presented as part of PST ART. PST ART is a groundbreaking cultural collaboration. Every five years, PST ART unites hundreds of artists around a single, electrifying theme at more than 70 exhibition spaces. While the theme is different each time, the heart of PST ART is always the distinctive cultural identity of Southern California, and the universal hunger for artistic and intellectual discovery. In a region famed for its films and theme parks, PST ART provides a different kind of gripping experience — and the most distinctively Southern Californian of all.

Question:

Question: I am seeing a lot of for sale signs staying up longer than normal in the beach area. Is this just my perception or are you seeing an increase in time it takes to sell a property right now?

Answer:

Your eyes aren’t deceiving you! We are definitely seeing an increase in the “Days on Market” (DOM) statistic. It is not the most appetizing buyer’s market at the moment...interest rates creeping back towards 7%, limited options to pick through, lots of international turmoil in the news, a lead up to our election, and inconsistencies in the economy’s direction. Also, there was a tremendous amount of buying/movement just a few years ago... so there is always going to be a drop off/slowing after a

time period like that. But, I think buyers and sellers should also realize that the days of a home coming on the market, having 40 showings in 3 days and receiving 10+ offers...are behind us. It’s getting back to “normal” real estate, where sellers shouldn’t be panicked if it takes a few months to sell their home and even some price adjustments along the way to find the right engagement point with the buyer pool.

“It’s true that you can’t time the market, but we never thought we would be selling our home of 23 years during the COVID-19 pandemic. Noah was the right realtor for us in this and any situation: knowledgeable, strategic and honest. We had some ups and downs with buyers, but always had complete con dence that Noah knew what he was doing and was looking out for our best interests. He did great and we’re grateful!”
