Wouldn't it be great to link any object directly to a 'video memory' or an article of text describing its history or background? Tales of Things allows just that with a quick and easy way to link any media to any object via small printable tags known as QR codes. How about tagging a building, your old antique clock or perhaps that object you're about to put on eBay?
The Curiosity Zone is an unusual exhibition; it doesn’t have labels with detailed instructions or lists of facts. We hope that the Curiosity Zone will give you a taste for investigation and the confidence to ask your own questions.
Our Cabinet of Curiosities contains some mystery objects, both man-made and natural. Do you have any idea what they might be? Would you like to share your ideas with us? They can be real or made-up. Ask one of our science explainers if you get stuck!
