Overview

Located at the Universeum science center in Gothenburg, Vislab is an interactive exhibition space where complex scientific datasets are transformed into immersive visual experiences. The lab encourages visitors to step into the role of a digital explorer, manipulating real-world data used by researchers to understand climate change, urban development, human biology, and ecological dependencies.

By visualizing the intricate connections between local behaviors and global consequences, the exhibition aims to deepen public knowledge surrounding sustainable development.

Interactive Modules & Stations

The laboratory features a collection of specialized interactive stations tailored to different scientific fields:

• Ecoweb & Environment: Simulates changes within a food chain (such as the Serengeti ecosystem) to show how altering a single species impacts an entire habitat. It also highlights marine species in Sweden's Kosterhavet National Park.
• Human Anatomy: Features Ben Body, Hjärnan (The Brain), and Livets träd (The Tree of Life), allowing visitors to look inside a full-body CT scan, inspect neural networks, or track structural evolutionary links across species.
• Urban & Public Data: Includes Virtuella Göteborg, simulating urban challenges like traffic noise, rising sea levels, and flash floods, alongside data tracking personal time management and historical global events through Life Stats.
• Interactive Testing: Includes a digital diving Sim-ulator exploring depth constraints and a TV-studio featuring green-screen setups for presenting visual scientific data.
