Almost Alive is an exhibit exploring virtual pets and humanity and what it means to be “living”. Explore what makes tamagotchis and other virtual creatures special with your own pet that follows you on the walls of the exhibit and evolves as you progress.

Discover topics such as the creation of Neopets and their wheel of monotony that almost never stops, how tamagotchis aid children with autism, and Sony’s many iterations of Aibo: an electric dog that is a companion to older adults and reads them the newspaper.
