The Dali Museum - Visual Magic Exhibit

I ideated, conceptualized, and wrote a special augmented reality exhibit featuring eight masterworks for The Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida. Visitors point their mobile devices at huge masterworks and watch them come to life via animation. Each animation conveys the main themes of the featured artwork and is followed by a "tap and learn" experience where visitors tap an area of the painting on their screens in order to learn more. This a demo video made for the client showing how the experience works.

Space Center Houston - Saturn V

This is one of several AR experiences created for Space Center Houston. It is triggered by a large poster located in their Starship Gallery. They have a small model of the Saturn V rocket in the gallery but it was hard for visitors to visualize how it worked. It's a great way for visitors to see the rocket in action before seeing the actual rocket at SCH's Rocket Park.

Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art - Drums

This was an augmented reality demo experience created for Nelson-Atkins in Kansas City, Missouri. They were looking for ways to engage millennial visitors. Here, we brought a painting, Drums, to life with motion and included a voiceover referencing a novel that the painting is based on.

SDMA - Haystacks at Chailly, Claude Monet

San Diego Museum of Art asked for an augmented reality experience to accompany one of their Monet works. I decided this was the perfect opportunity to showcase Monet's love of capturing the effects of light on a scene. As visitors point their mobile devices at the painting, it begins to cycle through different times of day to illustrate how the same scene changes due to lighting. The actual experience is also accompanied by sound.

Ming Dynasty House

This is a demo experience that was triggered by a large rug on the floor in the middle of a Chinese furniture exhibit. The furniture was from the Ming Dynasty and this experience filled a big empty area in the room.

Muhammad Ali Center

This was created to be experienced away from the center to entice people to visit or to supplement classroom materials. Easily triggered by poster or printed image, this AR experience lets users learn about Muhammad Ali, those that influenced him, and those that have followed in his footsteps when it comes to humanitarianism and activism.

SDMA - Kupkha

This is an example of a curator's request to make an abstract work of art come to life. Because the artist often commented on his wanting to capture sound visually, we decided to use music in this experience that we felt sounded like the painting looks.

Natural History

Natural History museums are great places for large augmented reality creatures to walk or fly around in. This is a demo video highlighting AR experiences I helped create for Natural History.

East Asian Art

In this experience at the San Diego Museum of Art, visitors learn about the intricate motifs featured on East Asian Pottery. As they hold their mobile devices up to a display case, augmented reality vines and flowers begin to grow right on the display glass.

STEAM Education Tour

This is a demo video featuring a small version of a larger AR experience we developed for the USS Midway museum. It is one stop on a six-stop augmented reality STEAM education tour created for visiting school groups. Here, children point loner tablets at a trigger and explore a 3D model of underway replenishment. They tap areas of the model to learn more about a specific action taking place during underway replenishment.
