London Taxi Interactive Exhibit

From the exhibition:
Brain: The Inside Story

New Mexico Museum of Natural History & Science

Research has shown that London taxi drivers—who are required to memorize complicated routes—have enlarged sections of their brains where long-term memory is stored, the hippocampus. With this game, follow the voice of a driver reciting a route from memory.
