On display at the museum is a rarely seen collection of 20 pate de verre glass sculptures Dali produced from 1968 to 1984 for Daum Cristal, France. Pate de verre, an ancient glassmaking technique dating back to the Egyptians over 3,500 years ago, was rediscovered in the nineteenth century and revived by Daum Cristal during the art nouveau movement of the early 1900s to present.

Each day, no matter how stupid you were the day or night before, continues.
Yes the marching drum of the world waking up, people moving on with their lives, picking up the the tiny bits, pieces and clues that make up where they fit in the universe in relation to the infinite amount of living things that take up this beautiful world.
Pulling themselves up from their sleep and fighting to survive the ensuing chaos that nobody can hide from.
Attempting to have all their goals met before having to climb into the blackness of space, the void, the emptiness that will eventually, without fail devour each and every soul.
If that vacant nothing doesn't devour me or you
I'll be in a rare side-project performing @ the Hotel Utah Saloon
under the name "The Preface Club"
I know some of you may think this is a lame name, why pick it?
Well I had a gig and it needed to be called something.
The Preface Club Band is featuring:
Ryan Beebe (the charismatic frontman for The Dead Hensons & The Gomorran's Social Aid & Pleasure Club)
Robert Johnson (beloved drummer, person and friend)
John Howard (That fancy seat pedal steel player)
Jesse Dyen (tinkler of the piano and all around song and dance man)
Craig Koozer (fixer of the universe & master of the subtle disco bass line)
& Yours truly me...Manasseh Bernal (you may know me as Manny)
