A Cockroach Tour of the Science Museum is a participatory project at London's Science Museum, South Kensington, by art collective Superflex.  Visitors will be invited to take on the form of cockroaches, dressing up in realistic costumes to begin a journey through the Museum, exploring the impact on the climate of scientific and technological developments from the perspective of one of the oldest, most resilient life forms on the planet. The humorous tour will take visitors through the Museum’s Energy Hall, Exploring Space and Making the Modern World galleries before completing their journey in the atmosphere gallery.

Superflex is a group of artists and designers whose work aims both to highlight global issues and to suggest and generate alternative ideas and solutions. The Cockroach Tours are every Saturday and Sunday until December 2011. To book a place call: 0870 870 4868.
