Abstract:

Raleigh's Exploris Museum is the world's first global experience center. Instead of the traditional museum approach of collecting material then connecting it with visitors who just come and look, Exploris determined what experiences it wanted visitors to have, then collected materials to support them. Exploris encourages visitors to manipulate and interact with the exhibits through touch, sight, and sound.
