About this audio guide
This guide to Glow Planet Penang on Lebuh Kimberley centers on a floor painting by German street artist Edgar Mueller, known across Europe for pavement illusions convincing enough to stop passersby. It follows why the museum's owners commissioned him for something new when this building opened as Malaysia's first glow-in-the-dark museum. Kneel at the marked spot near the entrance, where the anamorphic image is built to snap into proportion, rather than viewing it from an angle.
