selectparks - Playing with Protozoa

Ever wandered how good protozoa are at playing games? Steve Wilson's interactive installation Protozoa Games gives you the chance to find out, as basic movement challenges are waged against live single celled animals such as stentor, paramecia, amoebae, vorticella, volvox, and rotifers. A microscope and projector give you a close-up of the action.
