Then i went to a gallery with many different paintings. It gave me admiration to try to do something similar when i actually have the time.
After visiting that, I went down to a section with various things.

| a coin press |
 |
| cheque puncher (can't remember the exact name) |
What gave me an impression of the whole bank was THE VAULT. It was interesting to look for the answer to unveil the vault. It asked "what year was Bank Negara Tanah Melayu established?"
 |
| THE VAULT |
 |
| money and gold inside |
answer is 1959 but its not like i memorized it. Friends looked for it through google. haha.
Saw some interesting multimedia interface.
 |
| a projection inside the globe |
 |
| a projection based touch media. It senses pressure. |
I was curious about a few things in the museum. The image on the left, projection in the globe,
how is it projected?
how many projectors are there in it?
what material do they use for the globe so as to not see the projectors inside.
and image on the right for the touch table.
The projection comes from the top, but there is something on the table that senses pressure to make it clickable. Me and my friends were testing out if we could still touch with a piece of paper on top. It was not as responsive when there was a paper there. But when we placed a book on the table, the buttons were clicking itself without human touch, so it must be a form of weight/pressure that triggers the button, so I am curious of what is under the table.
I even went into the children part of the museum. It was super fun

| uses scanners to scan what items to buy |
I think it would be a good experience for net generation to go to this museum and explore the tech part. I would recommend it to my hometown friends if they ever visited KL.
Questions in my head
can we have coins as cool as the five rings rooster? i think it would be awesome to carry coins like that...just saying.
