ARTCURSION DAY

NASA

I was pretty excited about the NASA exhibition as I’m very interested in space travel. (hint hint to assignment 2 of 4d i) but was quite neutral afterwards maybe because there was a little too much information rather than visuals.(or rather the visuals depended way too much on information that required reading)

NASA, however, did give insight and inspiration of how we could handle assignment 2 and 3. By making audience go up close and having certain activities, audiences are able to have a more in-depth view and really understand what they are trying to show, which is to raise awareness about Space Travel and how it is important for the future.

I especially liked the interactive ride(not the price) to show the entire rocketing to space and descending to earth feeling. Could definitely include something like that in assignment 3.

Future World

This was by far, the more enjoyable experience. The interactivity, the ability to send your art works up to let everyone see was just truly amazing. The lighting, the props(balls, hopscotch) were also on point. I especially liked that they used technology not commonly seen for the animal part right at the front.(might contact the company, teamLab, for camp stuff hehe)

I thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience as it brought out the inner kids hidden within us.

Into The Wild

I’d say it’s a very unique experience but loses steam very quickly. VR is not rare and the fact that we had to hold a device made the experience not totally authentic as wearing a VR oculus device.(i understand that its about safety though)

Stakes were not high enough and the animals weren’t fully developed for me to be immersed and feel as though I’m part of the story. It’s an interesting concept nonetheless.

Genius Of The Crowd

More of a exhibition than an interactive showcase but was worth the walk! I especially liked the photography and videography and how they used projectors to show one of the videos. The meaning behind the exhibit was subtle but when we found out what it was about it was quite mind blowing.

Avengers Exhibition

Here’s a bonus one because it was interactive and it was kind of similar. The entire exhibition used the interactivity behind a phone application and incorporated heavy use of it for agent cards, photo ops(opportunities), quizzes and a final boss fight that required the team work of everyone and their phones.

It suffered the same fate as NASA but not as bad. Just that, there were too many damn kids.
