Hi Sherry - I don't know if you had a chance to experience our Optical Spinner Illusion at the Maryland Science Center during ASTC, but I saw people doing it over and over and questioning what was happening. Most of those people were at the ASTC party - so I'm not certain what the open bar had to do with that - but they seemed to be enjoying the experience of tricking their brains and the scale of the exhibit. Here is a link to a bit of info about it:  http://www.hofl.org/phenom_exhibits/phenom15.html

Let us know if we can answer any questions about it! Kathy

We are looking to supplement a current exhibition, but need something with a wow factor, and definitely want truly interactive.  We have seen lots of pre-established exhibitions that don't want to sell just components.  Any ideas?
