Got a name of a visitor-friendly museum? One committed to inclusive, accessible, interactive exhibits that are prototyped and evaluated? That values visitors' needs for comfort, engagement, and personal connection in their exhibits? Tell me for the 3rd edition of Exhibit Labels!
Laser dance parties, giant kaleidoscopes and colourful shadows all form part of a new interactive exhibit, designed to make science more accessible.
As @Elisabeth_Moss9 discovered, Illuminate uses light to encourage learning through sensory play. #9News
We're back again (15th Jan) for our second Repair Cafe on at our new location (Saxon St)!
Have you got some broken parts lying around and are up for the challenge of breathing new life into them? Then look no further than Saturday's workshop 👀.
See you there!
Are you an interactive exhibit manufacturer who has worked with museums and galleries? Open tender to help create the exhibits for the optics project I'm working on. https://t.co/JPjmS9tof5
Why so few women in physics and what to do about it? Daily I grapple with physics concepts and wonder why I dropped out like so many others. This article is illuminating. We just haven't had the opportunities until the last century or so but just watch us! https://t.co/iNvfOdO04U
"Confirmation bias? I don't have that!" Said everyone ever while cringing at things we disagree with and sharing stuff we like and feels comfortable.
I don't have a solution. Only observation and awareness.
@drskyskull I'm making an exhibition on optics for kids and a colleague pointed me to this thread. V useful thanks! Discovered the other day thx to the Exploratorium that the rainbow in oil film and bubbles is the complement of the ROYGBIV rainbow. Amazing!

@BrosaDesign PSA. Do not buy from this place. Great design and fine showroom experience but absolutely shocking service after you have handed money over. 3-4mths until you can receive your item after full payment. Refunds take 10 business days. Still no sight of it
This week, we went on an interstate odyssey to track down the composer of the Bunnings theme. 25 years later, he still secretly wanders around his local WA store whistling the tune. The first thing he said when we finally reached him? “I knew this day would come”. #Gruen
Happy harvest moon festival 🌝. Though we are apart for now, I feel united under our natural satellite. Sending you love
