The Time Machine
UX Design, Installation, Video, Sound
The Time Machine was my bold second semester project — an attempt at a cool, fun new way of bringing history to life, interactively. The main target group were children, so we worked in close collaboration with both Esbjerg Museum and two local school classes. Hosting two workshops with the children, we let ourselves become deeply inspired by the children’s own Lego prototypes and their sketches of time machines.
The installation was exhibited in the foyer of the museum in spring 2013.
By pressing one of four foam buttons, the time traveler was taken to the Stone, Viking or Middle Ages and shown a panorama-style short film about the selected period.
