Hi Sherry,
We have a single, unpowered exhibit about creating 'false memories' (the
Deese/Roediger/McDermott paradigm). 
Person one memorises a list of words, then covers the list, while person
two 'keeps score' of the words that person one remembers by moving beads
along an abacus. 
Each list of words 'dances' around a particular theme, so the memoriser
(person one) often swears that particular words are on each list. 
Regards,
Cindy Chambers

**********************************************************************Hi
community!
Just wondering if anyone has any great examples of some interactive,
even inquiry based exhibits suitable for inclusion in a traveling
exhibition on Memory/the Brain.  I am looking for something that could
be an anchor, or iconic experience for this grouping and would love to
hear ideas and suggestions.  Thanks!
