The Coelophysis exhibit and Website provides museum visitors with a wealth of information about New Mexico's State Fossil. Coelophysis lived in the Southwest during the Triassic Period over 200 million years ago. Photographs, illustrations, and popular articles along with answers to commonly asked questions make up the exhibit. The exhibit and Website tie into a custom database and content management system. The site was developed using the Ruby on Rails framework.

Ideum worked closely with the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science to develop this interactive exhibit and Website. It is part of the Dawn of the Dinosaurs: Triassic New Mexico exhibition--which is on permanent display at the museum.
