The Fibonacci Museum

The Museum


In the District of Waterfalls is a large museum in the same architectural style as the rest of the city. As one would expect, it has automated security systems, and even guards in the form of Sprites, faceless generic beings with little personality (if you are caught stealing, the Sprites will simply grab you and teleport you out of the building.) Steal anything from it, and whatever was stolen will be teleported back inside within three days.

The museum contains informative exhibits of all kinds concerning the worlds of the inhabitants. If you have a suggestion for an exhibit, please add it to this post.



- A gallery of Veradine art, which is mostly Monet style impressionist art.
- A History of Cyber Ninjas.

- A natural history gallery focused on the United States and the plants and animals therein
- A history focused on the American Revolution.
- History of Mars (colonization -> civilization -> rebellion)

- The history of cat burglary

- History of piracy
- Nazi Germany
- A summary of the Robot Industrial Revolution of the 22nd century.

- A section of famous Renaissance art.
- Ancient relics and ruins of the Aztec, Greek, Egyptian, Norse, and Thai cultures.
- A model of Excalibur, and a brief history of King Arthur.
- A history of the Fremen culture.

- A replica of the Shadow Gallery
- Dinosaur skeletons
- A display composed of all sorts of forgeries, hoaxes, and fearsome critters---the jackalope, the furred trout, jenny hanivers, etc.

- An exhibit on demon and angel lore, which includes this painting.

- A history of film, from early silent movies up to the holovids from Star Wars. (Please keep the rule regarding the fourth wall in mind.)
- A history of the circus, including advertisements and loads and loads of costumes---ringmasters, clowns, acrobats, the works. Even the horse and elephant gear.
- A wing dedicated to a mini wax museum, covering celebrities, famous characters, and historical figures from the various worlds. There are even a few Cybertronians here and yes, they're wax too.
- The arms and heads broken off various stone statues, each with a little plaque stating which statue it belongs to, and who had carved it.
- A Pompeii exhibit, covering the people and artifacts found.
- A graffiti exhibit, with samples from antiquity onwards.
- A sweets exhibit, covering the history of chocolate and a small variety of other sweets and when and where they were popular.
- An architecture exhibit, with lots of little model buildings and insane amounts of detail. Despite the scenes being behind glass, the little people and animals arranged around the buildings sometimes change position.

- A TARDIS with Bad Wolf written on there, as well as some notes on the history, good, and bad of it in pop culture contexts.
- A piece on Daleks, and Cyberman, but with a note that humans go out to colonize the stars and even explore black holes (and an exhibit on that too. Note: As well as a piece about being nicer to Ood.
- A piece explaining alternate universe history with examples using Rose's "father's" universe (though not specifically called that, it will be referenced as a universe in which Peter Tyler is a famous inventor instead of Steve Jobs & Apple products, but at the cost of the cyberman originating with humans instead of elsewhere) in which zeppelins become more popular than airplanes and are used everywhere for everything well past the 2000s, because instead of the Hindenburgh crash which never happened in that universe, one of the Wright brothers died, which meant people latched onto zeppelins, and the airplane didn't catch on. This will also go onto explain string theory and the concept of multiple universes changed by only a single incident, as well as laws of time and how paradoxes may be created; with a follow up exhibit on the super bad, very do not want and whys: of paradoxes.
- A mini history of rock and roll.
- An exhibit of rocks that Look Like Faces

For the irony of it, there should be an exhibit on the history of cat burglary.

done!

History of piracy ftw.
Nazi Germany
And, for the heck of it, a summary of the Robot Industrial Revolution of the 22nd century.

[identity profile] thewake-mods.livejournal.com 2009-04-13 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
Done!

I would like to suggest:

-A section of famous impressionist paintings.
-Ancient relics and ruins of the Aztec, Greek, Egyptian, Norse, and Thai cultures.
-A model of Excalibur (http://www.tonnerdoll.com/2009TonnerSite/2009Images/LaraCroft/excalibur.jpg), and a brief history of King Arthur.
-A history of the Fremen culture.

Nevermind, I missed that there was already impressionist art.
Scratch that, and change it to Renaissance art.

Added!

[identity profile] crazylikefawkes.livejournal.com 2009-07-13 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
Could we have,

- A replica of the Shadow Gallery?
- Dinosaur skeletons?
- A display composed of all sorts of forgeries, hoaxes, and fearsome critters---the jackalope, the furred trout, jenny hanivers, etc.?

[identity profile] thewake-mods.livejournal.com 2009-07-23 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
Done!

[identity profile] doubtheaven.livejournal.com 2010-05-05 12:38 am (UTC)(link)

We need more exhibits...

How about:

- a history of film, from early silent movies up to the holovids from Star Wars
- a history of the circus, including advertisements and loads and loads of costumes---ringmasters, clowns, acrobats, the works. Even the horse and elephant gear.
- a wing dedicated to a mini wax museum, covering celebrities, famous characters, and historical figures from the various worlds. There are even a few Cybertronians here and yes, they're wax too.
- the arms and heads broken off various stone statues, each with a little plaque stating which statue it belongs to, and who had carved it.
- a Pompeii exhibit, covering the people and artifacts found.
- a graffiti exhibit, with samples from antiquity onwards.
- a sweets exhibit, covering the history of chocolate and a small variety of other sweets and when and where they were popular.
- an architecture exhibit, with lots of little model buildings and insane amounts of detail. Despite the scenes being behind glass, the little people and animals arranged around the buildings sometimes change position.

Thank you!

Done! Just keep in mind the rule regarding the 4th wall, when it comes to the history of film exhibit.

[identity profile] crazylikefawkes.livejournal.com 2010-05-09 08:38 am (UTC)(link)
Sure thing!

I was thinking more along the lines of different techniques, especially with the introduction of colour and the things they tried for that.

Even if it's not a proper exhibit, I would like to request a small theatre space in the museum---there's a stage, yes, but there's also a screen to be pulled down and secured, and an appropriately placed projection room.

Since Rahim's grandfather was a museum curator at the Qatar Museum Of Islamic Art before coming to America, and Rahim is now living in the Museum in Nautilus, can I have a nice large picture of the Qatar Museum appear in the Museum?

Rose would like to add Bad Wolf as it's displayed on the side of the TARDIS, to the grafitti exhibit, as well as some notes on the history, good, and bad of it in pop culture contexts.

A piece on daleks, and cyberman, but with a note that humans go out to colonize the stars and even explore black holes (and an exhibit on that too **note: as well as a piece about being nicer to Ood!)

And a piece explaining alternate universe history with examples using her "father's" universe (though not specifically called that, it will be referenced as a universe in which Peter Tyler is a famous inventor instead of Steve Jobs & Apple products, but at the cost of the cyberman originating with humans instead of elsewhere) in which zeppelins become more popular than airplanes and are used everywhere for everything well past the 2000s, because instead of the Hindenburgh crash which never happened in that universe, one of the Wright brothers died, which meant people latched onto zeppelins, and the airplane didn't catch on. This will also go onto explain string theory and the concept of multiple universes changed by only a single incident, as well as laws of time and how paradoxes may be created; with a follow up exhibit on the super bad, very do not want and whys: of paradoxes.

ALSO: A mini history of rock and roll. Because gdi yes. Input on what/who/how much to have would be very welcome, please!
