Update #14: Another cool Art + Science project
If you like science, space and art (and since you backed BANG! those chances are pretty good), you might be interested in this other Kickstarter project I just learned about: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/dacio/the-cosmos-gallery-launch-mission-fine-art-science
This awesome painter is trying to raise money so they can make high-quality reproductions of their wonderful space-inspired paintings. If you're interested, please take a look. I'm already a backer!

I'm an artist and science enthusiast who believes that today's children will change the world. I've always enjoyed science, art and making books, ever since I was a little lad. From Berkeley High to Brown University and beyond, I've made a bunch of books on a variety of subjects. Lately I've been focused on making books about science for children and fun-loving adults.
Hello James,
Thank you very much for mentioning my project, I'm honored to have you as a backer and for supporting my vision. Looking forward to see more of your work.
