And it's a wrap! I concluded my Carrollian Fellowship at the University of Southern California with the launch of the "Spectral Science" exhibition, and world premiere of the completely sold out, hour-long Phantasmagoria Magic Lantern show I co-created from my research. Absolute life highlight! ๐Ÿชž๐Ÿ”ฎ
