Interactive
Exhibitions
Natural science museums have two key characteristics: they are widely distributed across the territory, allowing them to bring scientific knowledge to the entire population; and they often operate with limited budgets, facing the constant challenge of introducing innovation and renewing their audience experience.​
​​
Our interactive exhibitions are primarily designed for small and medium-sized museums that wish to introduce new discovery experiences within their exhibition spaces.​
​
We have developed our exhibitions with attention to three key elements:
-
​the possibility of being experienced at different levels of depth, adapting both to the boundless wonder of children and to the analytical mindset of our fellow scientists,
​​​
-
the interdisciplinarity of the content, which starts with the understanding of scientific phenomena to invite visitors to a more conscious exploration of our social and natural world,
​​​
-
the modularity of the exhibition design, which makes it possible to adapt the exhibition to different museum's spaces, connecting with the items and themes of each room.
FAKE/REAL
What if everything you think you see were just an illusion? How much can you really trust your eyes?
​
FAKE/REAL is a unique experience that will lead you to question your sensory certainties, challenging visual perception in surprising and engaging ways. Through an interactive setup suitable for all ages, you will be able to explore the mysteries of human vision with curious and entertaining experiments.
Discover how colors deceive the mind, immerse yourself in virtual reality to see the world through the eyes of animals, observe the world in ultraviolet as pollinating insects do, and be amazed by optical illusions.
After this journey, you will watch the moving images of your favorite TV series in a whole new way, stroll among the buildings in your city understanding the reasons behind some unusual architectural choices, and pay much closer attention to the color choices on book covers at the library.
​
Get ready to see reality…
thgrough different eyes!
PLAY!
Have you ever wondered why a spinning top spins, or how sounds travel through the air? What if play were the best way to discover science?
​
PLAY! is an interactive exhibition that transforms curiosity into exploration, engaging visitors in fun and surprising experiments. With over 80 exhibits, from traditional games to the most modern technologies, you can experience firsthand the fundamental principles of physics: time, motion, fluids, sound, electromagnetism, and light.
​
An experience that makes science accessible to everyone through the universal language of play. No matter your age—just let yourself be guided by wonder and look with curious eyes at the world around you.
​
Even at a simple game.
Science-Theater
We have brought science to the stage as well, combining art and technology. It has been a few years since our last show, but if you are interested in HYPERVISION, MEDICINE OF THE FUTURE, or COLORS ON STAGE, get in touch with us! In the meantime, here is a glimpse of what they are about.
HYPERVISION
An augmented reality journey exploring the vision of Homo sapiens and other animals on planet Earth.
How does vision work? What distinguishes what is visible from what is invisible? What secrets lie behind our perception of color? Is transparency an absolute concept, or does it depend on the eye of the observer? What do bees, cats, and snakes see? These are some of the questions that guide us through this narrative journey based on the sharing of visual sensations. The narrator’s visual experience is enhanced through the use of various technological tools—including a virtual reality headset—and projected outward to be shared with the audience, in an interplay of simulations and scientific experiments.

AVAILABLE FOR THEATERS, LITE VERSION, AND ONLINE.
MEDICINE OF THE FUTURE
Performed by Tommaso Rosi and Andrea Brunello, Visual AR by Tommaso Rosi, Original sound by Enrico Merlin, Written by Andrea Brunello, Scientific consultancy by Graziella Pellegrini, Department of Life Science, "Centro di Medicina Rigenerativa" - University of Modena and Reggio Emilia,
Scientific support by University of Modena and Reggio Emilia; Bologna; Parma; Ferrara
Financial support by Regione Emilia Romagna​
The show explores the importance of basic research in science. The “Medicine of the Future” can only exist if society invests in research today—even without knowing whether it will yield positive results (failure in science is very common) and without having control over the timing of any eventual breakthroughs. This is the main educational goal, a topic we further explore during the Q&A session at the end of the performance. The central theme is personalized medicine, which uses DNA, sex, race, and age to identify the best possible treatment for each patient. The show also highlights some innovative gene therapies that are already being used today to treat challenging diseases such as Epidermolysis Bullosa and corneal disorders. Through this experience, the audience can become familiar with these techniques and appreciate the tremendous revolution that personalized medicine is bringing to the medical field.​
COLORS ON STAGE
What are colors? In this show, science and wonder come together. Through experiments, visual games, and storytelling, explore color perception, additive and subtractive color mixing, and optical illusions. An interactive journey that captivates both eyes and mind, making the physics of light surprisingly vivid.
