MENTAL is an experimental space

You're entering into an experimental space. Some works will capture your data. Any concerns?  Contact info@melbourne.sciencegallery.com 

What data is collected about me? 

Your data is collected in various ways. Where data is stored, you can remove data if you change your mind after your visit.

Who has access to the data collected about me? 

Data is only shared with artists and responsible researchers.  

How do I opt out? 

You can opt out by not participating in surveys. Where artworks collect data, you can opt out by not participating in an interactive experience.

Why do you allow research to be conducted in gallery? 

One of the unique things about Science Gallery is the way it brings active academic research together with an exhibition experience for the public. We embrace the notion of ‘living laboratory’. 

How do I work with Science Gallery in future shows?
