I've been examining a science centre for my thesis project this year and I've done research into the outreach that people are doing in order to see how a building would fare wrt attracting visitors. I've been looking at voyeurism and there've been no arguments about letting people look into the world of the scientist and busting that open to examine. Part of the problem is that science isn't casual and has to be rigorous at all times. Bridging the gap between the science and public domains is hard work, and designing a building where the public can come up against the scientific domain is interesting too, also a challenge.
