From brainwave to reality: A sneak peek at the making of a hands-on Halloween workshop

Catherine Émond

Ingenium - Canada's Museums of Science and Innovation

Years ago, I saw an article online about a pumpkin decorating contest by NASA. The results were spectacular: there were moving parts, whirling parts, computers programmed to display LED messages, depictions of sciences, and some really crazy themes! As Exploratek activity coordinator at the Canada Science and Technology Museum, I was immediately inspired to bring a similar activity to our visitors.
