New York City artist, curator, and writer, Harley Spiller, has put together a collection of human oddities that's housed in a old freight elevator in an NYC alleyway. The second season of the [Museum](http://mmuseumm.com/?ref=protein.xyz) project is made up of five collections that have a total of two hundred objects with wares such as Disney-themed bulletproof back packs, unusable paper and coin currency, and toothpaste tubes from around the world. The exhibit is viewable 24/7 through viewing windows and open to the public on the weekends.  
  
The Museum exhibit is an example of creating buzz about a project by inhabiting an unusual 'venue'.
