The Sciencetunnel is an exhibition
on frontier scientific research of Germany. It was produced
by the Max Planck Society for the Expo 2000 at Hanover
in Germany with the aim of offering visitors a glimpse
of fore-front scientific research topics being conducted.
This exhibition is a 170-metre long multimedia tunnel
that leads visitors through the new dimensions of cutting
edge research, spanning from the smallest particles all
the way to the largest structures in the universe in a
total of twelve stations with pictures and film projections
from current research projects.
In a kind of "time-lapse" presentation, the
Sciencetunnel offers views into previously unknown
worlds - both in us and around us. It shows what challenges
today's researchers in the various dimensions of our existence:
what holds our world together; how does life function
in the realm of cells; how does our brain work; how do
human beings interact in the society; what makes life
on Earth possible; and finally what our place in the universe
is.
Subsequent to its premiere in the Expo 2000, Sciencetunnel
has been staged at Beijing, Shanghai, and Manchester,
UK. Sciencetunnel will be presented from May to August
2003 at the Special Exhibition Hall of the Hong Kong Science
Museum. Through the multi-media presentation of more than
a dozen wide-screen projections and hundreds of sensational
photos, visitors will have an insider look into the fascinating
worlds of atoms, matter, planets and outer space. |
