If you are a fan of CSI like I am, you are going to love CSI: The Experience, an interactive exhibition opening December 2, 2011 at the Piazza in Surfers Paradise.
Based on the hit television show CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, this hands-on exhibit was developed with 175 forensic science experts. Already a success in the United States, Europe, and Asia, it only seems fitting to bring it to the Gold Coast - not unlike Las Vegas with its notorious nightlife and criminal element.
CSI: The Experience allows visitors to enter 'crime scenes' and take on the role of a forensic detective to solve a hypothetical crime using real science.
The new detectives will be inducted upon entering the exhibit via video introduction by Anthony E. Zuiker, the creator of the CSI series. Real-life forensic scientist, Ron Singer, will then sum up the science found in the exhibition followed by a briefing by 'Gil Grissom', the team supervisor.
The detectives will then be directed to one of three detailed 'crime scenes' to identify, record, and analyse the evidence. They can access 'crime labs' for scientific testing and visit 'autopsy rooms' for pathology analysis. Some of the forensic science they will employ is: DNA comparison, firearm identification, blood splatter analysis, forensic entomology, toxicology, and fingerprint and dental record comparison.
Past and present CSI characters will encourage the detectives along the way via video. Detectives will then be invited to present their results to 'Gil Grissom' in his 'office'; those who are successful will receive a personalised crime scene diploma.
Most detectives take about fifty to sixty minutes to solve the 'crime'.
