The exhibit will have a body, human or otherwise, with various organs and systems noted for the viewer to select from. Once selected that system or organ can be rezed in-world (or shown on a map in real life). The organs can be very large or small, depending on the system and its function. For example, allowing the viewer to become part of the bloodstream and make the round trip from the heart through various organs, or show the movement of air into and out of the lungs allowing the viewer to zoom in and enlarge key areas to see how they work. This exhibit could be constantly expanded, starting with the systems of greatest interest to museum goers and eventually creating a fully functional body. This exhibit could also focus on a comparison of human systems with those of unique animals. For example, showing why birds get bird flu, but it is rare in humans.
