Spyscape

Spyscape's physical HQ in New York City[1] is a 60,000-square-foot interactive museum created by London-based private investment group Archimedia and designed by Sir David Adjaye.

[2] Spyscape HQ has seven main gallery zones: Encryption, which focuses on the cryptanalysts who cracked the German Enigma machine in WWII; Deception, which takes visitors through the FBI's hunt for KGB mole Robert Hanssen; Surveillance, a 360-degree room that presents a closer look at Edward Snowden; Hacking, highlighting the Anonymous (group); Cyberwarfare, which focuses on Stuxnet; Special Ops, which focuses on WWII spy gadgets and SOE Officer Virginia Hall; and Intelligence, which examines the how espionage and analysis shaped the Cuban Missile Crisis.

Visitors have the opportunity to test their own skills with various 'challenges' throughout the galleries - assessing traits from empathy and agility, to personality, brain power, and risk tolerance.

The final gallery is Debrief, where visitors receive the results of their tests and challenges, and are assigned a spy role.

The focal point of the exhibit is the actual Aston Martin DB5 that was driven by Pierce Brosnan in the film GoldenEye.
