You know what else is present at a whole lot of places? An exhibit about the
local river/lake/estuary/watery body. Expect to find one of those
stream/erosion tables in there.

Hi Lisa,

good question. I'll be curious to hear what people think are the most comon
in museums.

Here's my first pass:

colored shadows

whisper dishes

funny mirror exhibits (parabolic mirrors, funhouse mirrors, watch yourself
fly, etc.)

I'd also be curious what people think are the most popular in their own
institution and if the lists have a lot of overlap.

cheers,
