Usher

A scripted guide to this site

Scripted guide · no AI · your choices are not sent anywhere

In plain words

Usher is a scripted guide to this site. It asks what you are looking for and offers a few answers to pick from. Each answer leads to a short message with links to the right page, wing or guide. Everything it can say is in the script on this page; it cannot say anything else.

Boundaries

Can

  • Offers prepared answers and takes you to pages, wings and guides of this site.
  • Goes back one step, starts over, or lists every place it knows.
  • Keeps the path you took in this browser tab (session storage), so you can leave and come back. Closing the tab forgets it.

Cannot

  • Does not use an AI model and does not read typed text. There is no text field.
  • Does not send your choices anywhere and sets no cookies.
  • Cannot open an exhibit for you. It takes you to the wing, and a click on the card opens the exhibit.
  • Knows only this site as of Nov 4, 2026.
