About ten years ago, The Provincial Museum in Victoria, B.C. opened an exhibit called "Oceans", which had a storyline element very similar to what is done in some theme parks. The storyline was introduced on Video while the visitors are waiting in line to go through the exhibit in small groups. As I recall, you rode in a couple of submarines and entered darkened areas where you watched as the story of the cycle of life in the oceans was presented. This exhibit has been criticized for being too Disneyesque, but I think it was an interesting experiment at utilizing theme park technology to catch peoples interest on a more serious topic: conservation of the worlds oceans. Has anyone seen this exhibit? What did you think of it? Would you try to do such a thing at your institution? R.O. Dahl May the great worm of enlightenment prosper in the compost pit of your mind.
