Scientifically Speaking with Irene Moon

Scientifically Speaking with Irene Moon developed around 1997 to elevate entomology as a rock genre. Under the name we have proceeded in creating multimedia environments, organizations, happenings, and music about or inspired by insects. The natural sciences are a perfect art; idealized and often misinterpreted by the public. The Begonia Society installations, presentations, and films introduces factual topics with the creative fascination and detail that could only come out of the intimate relationship a scientist has with his or her subject. Moon herself is a working entomologist presently employed at the American Museum of Natural History in New York. She has the duel focus to advance appreciation of art in the halls of science; as a means of connecting the public to entomology and increasing awareness of the art and creativity intrinsic to the scientific process.
