The Amazing Body
The concepts for this project were done while I was at Bell and Trotti, Houston Tx, in 1990. The construction of this project was delayed for several years. It was finally completed in 1996, now in the McGovern Museum of Health and Medical Science in Houston.
You started you experience by entering through the mouth, down the esophagus, through the digestive tract, etc. In addition to the visual and tacktile environment, the journey was augmented with video kiosks as well as informational graphics.
