Tumblr post by transgenderer: The Macy’s windows this year are “Macy’s windows themed” like they depict people looking at the original Macy’s windows from 100 years ago, in a little diorama inside the windows. I thought this was stupid at first but I decided it’s apt. Christmas has been about “Christmas” since at least before the Charlie brown Christmas special like 50 years ago. It’s an entirely meta holiday. You’re not celebrating anything but the idea of celebrating something. It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas
There's an exhibit in the Boston Museum of Science that uses the Pepper's Ghost illusion to show the color-changing coat of some mustelid between a summer and winter setting. The exhibit is still on display because it was the museum's first interactive exhibit ever.
So it was a museum exhibit of a museum exhibit. I postulate that in a few hundred years, the entire museum will be about itself.
