One of the hands on activities in the Earth Gallery is in an area that examines the metamorphic forces shaping the earth. This screen allows the visitor to morph their face. Visitors include thoroughly disreputable scoundrels.
It can start to feel like something out of The Matrix. With Morpheus being a white guy with genetic curse red cheeks.
"I'm trying to free your mind, Neo. But I can only show you the door. You're the one who has to walk through it."
The exhibit continues on.
An artificial cave has been created inside the Earth Gallery, with a booklet of information on cave features at the entrance. It feels quite like you might expect. Though you don't have to squeeze through tight spots to get in here. I'll pick up here tomorrow.
Especially the caves are interesting.
ReplyDeleteFor me too the caves are interesting !
ReplyDeleteSomeone is having fun with the screen. Lol! Looking forward to what's inside the cave. Have a happy day!
ReplyDeleteI miss the mountains of my homeland ... there are so beautiful caves!
ReplyDeleteThe Netherlands has no mountains ...
There is a child in all of us.

ReplyDeleteTypical of what I see every morning in my bathroom mirror. :-)

ReplyDeleteMy goodness! Those morph pictures of you are definitely something out of another universe. Loved it! :-)
ReplyDeleteThe morphing must be really popular!
ReplyDeleteWonderful idea to morph faces to demonstrate changes in the earth.
ReplyDeleteSeems we must discover the door for ourselves, we stubborn metamorphs!🌺
ReplyDeleteThat's really bizarre, the face morphing but it would be so much fun.
ReplyDelete@Shammickite: I've watched kids have a ball playing around with the controls for that screen.
ReplyDelete@DJan: I certainly wind up looking different.
@RedPat: it is!
@Red: I agree.

The face morphing looks such fun and I liked the caves too.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Looks like you had a lot of fun here William, enjoyed sharing it with you 😊
ReplyDeleteIt looks like an engaging exhibit! I know I'd also enjoy checking it out.
ReplyDeleteTo the morph and back. That total twist looks like it would hurt even if it is virtual.
ReplyDeleteAaaagh! The matrix! :-D
ReplyDeleteWonderful stuff to play with, must be fun.
ReplyDeleteFun 'morphing' and fascinating caves ~
