Dialogue with Time is an exhibition exclusively on the topic of ageing. The fully-guided experience is facilitated by retirees who lead a group of visitors through various zones in the exhibition and engage in dialogues with visitors to overcome stereotypes or misguided assumptions associated with old age. It is heart-warming to see that idsMED distributed Paro is now a permanent feature in this exhibition. Paro, a plush robotic seal, was built specifically as a “therapeutic robot” to help reduce stress among hospital patients, nursing home residents, and people in other care facilities.
