Indiana JonesTM and the Adventure of Archaeology. From December 22, 2011 to September, 16, 2012 Posted: 16 Feb 2012 04:49 PM PST Indiana Jones™ and the Adventure of Archaeology transforms the museum experience into a multimedia and interactive adventure. Visitors will be immersed in the world of Indiana Jones, an environment created by state-of-the-art technology and spanning over 900 square metres. Equipped with a video companion, visitors will embark on a quest to uncover the true origins of archaeological mysteries. An original audio greeting recorded by Harrison Ford – the world-renowned actor who brought Indy to life – will welcome visitors and invite them to begin their journey into the science of field archaeology. Indiana Jones™ and the Adventure of Archaeology will elucidate myths associated with relics like the Ark of the Covenant and the Holy Grail and explore mythical places such as Akator or Mayapore. The exhibition also will shed light on how archaeologists really work on projects such as deciphering ancient scripts and discovering the true origins of the mysterious Nazca lines in southern Peru.  'Indiana Jones and the Adventure of Archaeology' not only features a vast and exclusive collection of Indy props, models, concept art and set designs, it also presents a wealth of historical and cultural facts. The internationally renowned University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, otherwise known as the Penn Museum, is providing genuine archaeological artefacts and educational material.

3D Sculptures=Art+Science Posted: 17 Feb 2012 02:46 AM PST “3D Sculptures=Art+Science” is a compilation of the work of artist Stella Torres Martí who, together with industrial engineer Enrique Navarro, experiments with new techniques in sculpture and applies innovative digital technologies. The exhibition includes eight figures in three formats: 20, 28 and 50 centimetres tall, as an example of these “sculptural photographs”. The pieces are made up of meticulously overlaying thin layers that follow the lines of a scan of surfaces and volumes. Once this three-dimensional scan of the person is complete, there follows the complex work of capturing the essence of the model in a digital figure which has mass and volume. Visitors can get a three-dimensional scan of themselves and, after a few days, buy their own sculpture from a company called ENATEC.
