Singapore - In 1969, on the advice of the Science Council of Singapore, the Government decided to convert the National Museum into an art and historical museum and to build a new institution which would be devoted to scientific and technological education. The Singapore Science Centre is a non-formal educational institution for the promotion of science and technology among students and members of the public.

It has the country's largest collection of educational exhibits devoted to science, and has been acclaimed as one of the top science centres in the world. More than a million visitors come to the Singapore Science Centre every year.

With the advent of multi-media, the Ministry of Education financed video/chroma keying/animation Studios for the teaching of the subject.

Following the tender process and the approval of the consultant engineers, Zero 88's distributor Combined Corporation was chosen to design the studio. Two independent studios were created with the criteria for the studios to be combined into one large studio space.

Each studio features a Zero 88 24 channel Chilli installation dimmer along with a Zero 88 Jester 24/48 Lighting Desk. The dimmers are configured to allow for generic theatre dimming and a number of channels in switch mode for the operation of florescent Fill lights.
