It's not terribly exciting, but they do seem to have put a moderate amount of effort into this. It actually looks like an art gallery, and there is even an animated "booth".

Pretty cool exhibit.

And that gif...I thought it was Super Mario Bros. and couldn't figure out the connection.

Heh, it's not new. It's been up since the 90s.

Well, this one's got copper interconnects, 130 nm process stuff, SOI, and the G5 PowerPC 970.

Yeah, it's a pretty fugly GIF, but Super Mario Bros?

vs.

Anyways, I only posted that GIF, because most of the other ones (incl. the PPC 970 one) are too wide to fit on the page without violating the picture posting guidelines.

Oh, I guess they updated it then. It's been around for a while, though.
