Experience the first Mars Living Room Picture the first living room on Mars. What would settlers hang on their walls? They’d choose art that radiates the colors, warmth and joy of Earth. They’d hang paintings that remind them why exploring the unknown is worth it. That’s exactly what you’ll find at "Step Beyond," a limited‑run art adventure that transports you to a Mars colony living room where every wall glows with luminous oil paintings. Artists Andrea Tarman and Walter Redondo have created paintings that are more than décor. They’re portals to joy, the beauty of nature, the excitement of discovery and sparks of upliftment. In the hush of a Martian evening, colonists would gaze at these canvases for a burst of joy; here in San Diego, they’ll inspire you to imagine bigger. “As a local artist, I wanted to create a space where everyone can imagine life beyond Earth—see some great art and maybe spark the next generation of dreamers right here in San Diego.” – Andrea Tarman What to Expect: - Art: Collections inspired by the moon, the stars and beyond. - Mars Colony Living Room: Walk into a full‑scale living room set from the first Martian habitat.

Amanda Kramer’s "So Unreal" is a cinephile’s visual essay examining a canon of films that dared dream beyond the threshold of the real. Across a 30-year span – 1981 to 2001 – depictions of ‘future shock’ technologies such as artificial intelligence, cyberspace, and virtual reality grew in both frequency and complexity. Cinema in these years provided an outlet for humanity’s intertwined anxieties, fears, and fantasies about the brave new frontiers looming ahead. Narrated by Blondie icon Debbie Harry, "So Unreal" mines the substance and subtext of cyber-minded landmarks like "Tron," "Videodrome," "Brainstorm," "Terminator 2," "Tetsuo," "Lawnmower Man," "Hackers," "The Matrix," and dozens more. Soundtracked with deep cuts from the electronic underground, and styled with CGI-glitch FX, "So Unreal" maps the subcurrents of euphoria and dystopia simmering in the cinematic subconscious of the end of the 20th century.
