Experiment Update - 30/11/2010

Tuesday has been another productive day on the Experiment installation with the AIVAF exhibit designers and installation teams from Work Haus, Cocreate and The Image Group working into the winter nights to ensure the gallery is completed on schedule.

Rumour has it that the gallery could be open to the public as early as December 10th. We must stress that this is still unconfirmed, but we will of course ensure that our loyal audience are the first to know once we do have that final confirmation.

Until then, here is another photographic update to whet your appetite. We've even thrown a video of the brand new and hugely impressive Air Cannon in operation. Check back tomorrow for more from Experiment.

Experiment Update - 29th November 2010

Ever since the closure of the Great Western Warehouse in November 2009, the question on all of our visitors’ lips has been: "When will the Experiment gallery re-open?"

The good news is that despite a recent lack of Blog updates (for which we apologise profusely). The Experiment project has been coming together just nicely. Our designers, AIVAF have been working away steadily in the background with MOSI’s own Technical Services and Learning teams to create a gobsmacking array of new exhibits and modifications to breath new life into our existing collection of hands-on science interactive exhibits.

Over the past week or so, teams of staff from MOSI and AIVAF have been working tirelessly to install the exhibits in their new surroundings. The MOSI blog team have also been busy, creeping stealth-like into Experiment to bring you this sneak peak of the gallery as it takes shape. Hopefully, this will be the first of several updates from within the gallery this week so please check back throughout this week for the latest news and images from Experiment, MOSI’s fascinating and unique hands-on science gallery

We are reaching the final stages of the refurbishment of the Great Western Warehouse.
