BS: . . . When you first joined Techniquest can you remember any of the projects or exhibits that were running

DB: Right exhibits, um - do you want me to describe the building as well or do you just want to go for the exhibits and.

BS: If you want you can start with the building.

DB: Ok well, originally um if you walked in through the door, it, well, start with the building. It was basically a prefabricated building it was much smaller than the building we've got now and it probably had about 50 or 60 exhibits in it, I would guess, you know, I can't remember exactly but you know no more than that. And as you walked through the door there was - I always remember there was a TV set up on the back bit and there was a sort of bent piece of metal. I'm describe it with my finger which isn't gone to show up on the tape. There was a bent piece of metal but by the angle of the camera it looked like a complete, complete - triangle shape of metal. And you could actually look at yourself on the TV walking through the piece of metal because the way the metal was bent and the angle - camera angle actually looked like you were actually walking through it.
