| DESIGN NAME: Transporta - Quirky World of Quarks PRIMARY FUNCTION: Experiential Installation INSPIRATION: The Universe has always been a subject that remains mysterious and unfathomable even today. Diving deep into the research, the topic of the creation of the universe captured our attention. The very beginning of time, space and matter led us to quarks, the first ever hypothesized particle that forms the foundation of everything in the universe. We wanted to demystify this intriguing topic and present it in a way that the man on the street could learn about and be entertained at the same time. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: TRANSPORTA is an edutainment platform that creates fun and engaging experiential journey with the use of multi sensorial technologies. The unassuming entrance to the secret portal is designed and strategically located, blending into the environment to create a sense of mystery for visitors. The experiential installation is not only immersive and visually captivating, it is also educational and informative. Through this multi-sensory and interactive journey that combines art and science, visitors get to learn and play at the same time. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Multi-sensory experiential journey that encourages hands-on interaction like touching, pushing, swinging, waving and walking. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The event was held from 28 January to 24 February 2019, at the Incubator, Esplanade Singapore, in conjunction with iLight Singapore 2019. |
PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: Infrared sensors, accelerometers, range scanning lasers and cameras were used to capture data which were then used to activate various mediums through specific instructions. These mediums range from lights (Spot, rope, micropointe and LED), projections and sounds (surround and environmental). These mediums help enhance the overall ambience and the experience of the interactivity. 3D Printing was also used to add another layer of haptic experience. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: 1000sqm in total. 650sqm café and installations experience. 350sqm Quirky World Of Quarks experience. TAGS: Experiential design, Immersive Experience, Digital Design, Edutainment, Educational design, Multimedia, Multi-sensory RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Descriptive research about quantum physics was conducted for ideation, and user research was carried out alongside prototyping and user observations to continuously improve the functionality of both the hardware and software to optimize user experience in the journey. CHALLENGE: Translating cold hard facts into a fun and entertaining learning experience was a challenge. Being imaginative while at the same time factually accurate involves digesting and simplifying dense and complicated concepts into bite sized information that must capture attention and engage audiences. This balance between being visually captivating and also artistic to younger audiences is challenging.
