Snail and bugs at the Biltmore









Summer 2009, with Lucas at the Biltmore in N.C.

Lucas chastised me for coming to the largest home in America and choosing these guys for my subjects.

See http://www.learnnc.org/lp/editions/biltmore-techtour/1316 for interesting information concerning the technology of the place (as progressive as possible).

The transformer room was easily one of the most interesting man-made collections that I have ever experienced. Photographs for the switchboard are literally impossible to find and frankly, you must experience that piece of art for yourself. If you go to the Biltmore: take the basement tour just for the damned switchboard.
