Future IDEAS
Imagining digital futures
A timeline in the Foyer of We The Curious that celebrates the past, present and future of Bristol’s curiosity through images and interactive elements designed for all ages.
Earlier this year, as part of its 25th birthday celebrations, We The Curious invited the people of Bristol to share their memories, photos, videos and stories, helping to shape the Curious Timeline. Contributions capture everything from early school visits and Planetarium “wow moments” to personal life stories created at We The Curious.
We were invited to use these memories within the Curious Timeline, which we built using recycled and repurposed materials from the We The Curious workshop. We imagined these stored treasures coming back to life and marching out of the storeroom to share their memories. So naturally we had to give these characters faces!
Memories featured in the Curious Timeline vary from families over the generations discovering the joy of the science centre, to couples finding love amongst the stars of the planetarium.
“Seeing the Curious Timeline come to life is incredibly exciting. It’s a celebration not just of our 25 years, but of everyone in Bristol who has shaped what We The Curious is today.”
Interactive elements include flaps to lift and explore, audio memories to listen to and a good old fashioned photo opportunity. It is in the foyer (where you don’t need a ticket) until April 2026 - check it out if you are in Bristol’s millennium square!
