CMA Gallery One!

Interactive screen explaing the Mythology is the Symbolism - We were able to not only SEE the mythology in art but CONSTRUCT a mythological comic


This was REALLY cool!! it explored the different ideas of 'the lion' in various artworks, even polled the viewers to see their impressions of the art "fierce, playful, powerful- relating to the lion pieces
The Lion pieces were located directly behind the monitor!!'


Allowing the user to learn and create their own mythological story!!!!




This was cool, as I walked around the rest of the museum I was able to listen to videos and learn a little extra about certain art pieces- you are able to RENT iPads to take out!


Needless to say, I played for an hour alone in Gallery One, This had me posture myself like the statues to see what it was like, then gave a brief description of the artwork
Another amazing feature, you were able to 'make a ceramic pot'.. all the steps! (minus the kiln)

They had a large screen set up, giving very detailed info on the artworks located behind the touch screen. VERY VERY COOl. all of the artists were Cleveland based! there were 6 interesting tabs on each artwork - location of the work, who made it, why, how did they construct it, where was it before the museum, other interesting tid bits!!! (learned alot!!)


This was part of an earlier picture above, This monitor detailed 3 different stories - Perseus, Bacchus, and Adam & Eve... showed these through art works and even film!
