Photography, History and Whatever Else Strikes my Fancy.
Starting September 15 and running through to January 14 next year Science World is going to have an exhibit of plastinated corpses, "Body Worlds 3".
Plastination is a process by which dead bodies are infused with polymers to prevent decomposition. In these displays the bodies are presented in action-poses, exploded views, cross-sections, etc. These are real people that have willingly donated their bodies for this use after death.
I think it would be great fun to get a bunch of people together for a group outing to see this exhibit.
