Click on to UNCHECK the box for "use compressed graphics". You must then clear your browser's cache! or your browser will show you the website's pages from memory, not a fresh copy of the page.
The Big Idea
The Greenhouse, Plymouth
DJW were awarded the contract for AV consultancy for the time-travelling Wildscreen, and the highly interactive Explore at the end of 1998, running through to August 1999. The two technologically advanced exhibitions within the @ Bristol Science Centre presented some interesting and diverse challenges to resolve.
Lighting and synchronizing a 450 million year “Tree of Life”, depicting the evolutionary path of life on Earth, and recreating the sounds of tropical jungles were just two such challenges achieved.
“@ Bristol has been a remarkable project,” said David Willrich, DJW’s Managing Director. “Since DJW became involved very early in the planning stage, we were able to identify a variety of multi-media opportunities that would further enhance the visitor experience throughout the project.”

He continues “ Whilst this early involvement is obviously an advantage, our enthusiasm to produce the very best in visitor experiences tends to lead us into presenting ourselves with a technical challenge or two.”
