This project included modeling about 80 objects for use in a simulation (funded by the Centers for Disease Control) to be used to train staff from the state health department in California in the deployment of emergency medical clinics, which would distribute antibiotics in case of biological attack. The objects were built to scale, based on photos of the actual objects and locations.


The Magicians also modeled similar objects for the revision of UCD's "Virtual Hallucinations" interactive exhibit, which allows the visitor to experience a simulation designed to help understand what it's like to be schizophrenic.
