project: Visual and UX Design for interactive installations in an exhibition space
role: Senior Visual Designer
duration: 2015
client: Museum of the Bible
agency: C&G Partners

I helped create twelve interactive experiences for the Museum of the Bible in Washington DC. As part of a team of architects, historians and environmental storytellers, we came up with the original concepts for each installation. I then created high-fidelity wireframes and defined technical requirements for each piece. The final designs were finished by a different design team.

The first one, Biblical Place Names, works on a 42-inch touchscreen and features a database of all places in the United States named after places mentioned in the Bible.

The following are educational videos that play on vertical monitors. In the videos, stage actors play some of the American Founding Fathers and read excerpts from their letters where they argue how much the Bible ought to influence the laws of the new nation.

The letters themselves are placed in glass boxes below.

American Spirituals and Gospels experience is a non-interactive jukebox that lives in an isolated booth inside the museum. It features two monitors, one mounted above the seats and showing the playlist; another, placed  at the regular level, provides context. 

Bible in Government is an interactive experience that tells how governments and their core political documents show either a lineage of Bibilical histories or direct quotes from Biblical texts. Multiple people can interact with the piece at the same time.

Bible in Literature explores Biblical textual allusions in the great works of the Western literary canon. It is displayed as two large touchscreens that appear folded as a book, one side providing context and the other — highlights on the direct quotes.

The following experiences are part of the Bible Now rotunda at the end of the floor. They feature Bible-related news, polls and image creation experience, all of which get projected on 360-degree panoramic panels in the rotunda.
