About This Exhibit
Welcome to the engineering heart of Minecraft. The Redstone Revolution exhibit showcases the incredible potential of Minecraft's electrical system through working demonstrations and hands-on activities.
Marvel at a room-sized calculator that actually computes, listen to note block compositions that rival classical music, and try your hand at building your own redstone contraption.
From simple doors to complex computing machines, this exhibit proves that Minecraft isn't just a game - it's a platform for learning real engineering and computer science concepts.
