Located in GVR Body works at science world

has anybody been to the body works at science world? it looks interesting but a bit pricey.

Just went tonight and I thought it was pretty decent. There were a lot more exhibits than I thought would be available and it took over an hour for me and my friends to get through.

As an educational exhibit, I felt they could've given us more information. Having taken anatomy classes in art school before, I was looking for extra knowledge but found that a lot of the stuff wasn't really explained. There was hints to the history of studying human bodies but no exhibits detailing that. We were told of the process that made the exhibit possible (something called plastination) but the actual process was never explained.

I felt it's far more satisfying as an artistic exhibit. If you looked at it like sculpture pieces made from human bodies, it's fascinating and kind of creepy/disturbing at the same time.

If you have a passing interest in the human anatomy, I'd recommend you check it out. Makes you appreciate your body a little more and realize how complex it all is.

The coupon can't be used, since it's a special event, separate from regular Science World entry. If you want a cheaper entry, go for an evening entry. You won't get most of the Science World exhibits available but you'll save some money on admission.

I won 4 passes on Z95, and they are sooooo restrictive.
I can't use them on weekends or holidays, and only mon-wed between 9-6 and thurs and fri from 6-9 or something and they expire in a week.

it's stupid, i mean, PEOPLE WORK, Y'KNOW.

but i'm really excited on going. probably going thursday or friday

also, you can purchase the audio tour for extra flow, which "enhances" your visit.
What's next? You have to purchase the "left arm clause" in order to see both limbs on an exhibit? christ.
