“The committee praised ‘Lost & Found in the Funhouse’ for its striking modern graphics and its interactive component,” Johnston said. “A separate leaf inserted in the brochure contains a map of the exhibit that allows the viewer to record his or her own path through the exhibit, answer questions about the experience of the exhibit, and create a Mobius strip – itself a central motif of the exhibit – using a pattern and instructions on the card. This was a brochure that not only provided intellectual content about the exhibit in a clear and thoughtful way but also emphasized the ‘fun’ aspect of the exhibit.”
