Permanent digital installation supporting the new medieval and renaissance galleries at the Art Institute of Chicago. Suite includes one overture video, an animated infographic, and a series of touchscreen experiences.

The recently opened galleries. Two touchscreens flank the horse and riders.
A case study video demonstrating the full breadth of the exhibit.

Spaced throughout the galleries are a series of interactive tablets, each telling a visual story about the objects in close proximity.

Designed to be a seamless interactive, the visitor experiences a series of short, insider explanations of the art on display.


Early prototype, demonstrating the seamless nature of the interactive.

Designed to scale, the interactive is built on a robust CMS. The content composer driving the experience hosts a series of modules that generate the visual story.

Diagram showing the content creation process, which we called "design improv." The next slide shows some live storyboarding.
