In a world where the creative and digital spaces collide, guests of all ages will have the ability to interact and control their surroundings using technology and interactive art pieces as part of a new installation, Interactive Media. Open through February 2020, the installation showcases highly dynamic and interactive exhibits where guests will immerse themselves in cutting-edge, full-body experiences. Guests can participate in arcade and dance games using their movement to play augmented reality versions of classic arcade favorites like Tetroactive (Tetris) and Jumpzilla (Breakout) - see more details below!
In addition, Santa Barbara-based artist Marco Pinter’s exhibit Reflections: Thermal Gestures is a unique and interactive exploration that uses thermal photography to capture and illustrate guests’ movement over time using heat-sensing cameras and projectors.
