Bringing art to interactive tablets through 3D rooms, gesture‑driven interaction, spatial audio, and contextual exploration.

What if every visitor who pauses at an artwork leaves with a measurable spark of curiosity?

Kunsthalle Mannheim partnered with us to turn exhibitions into living digital experiences. From interactive labels and 360° explorers to guided learning paths, the platform extends storytelling beyond the wall text.

Kunsthalle Mannheim

Features

Interactive surfaces, motion, and media working in sync to keep every visitor engaged.

Designed for Learning

Quizzes, workshops, and multi‑modal paths meet different learning styles without losing curatorial intent.

Gesture Associations

Floating image clusters respond to hand motions, linking artworks, themes, and stories in real time.

High-Res & Spatial Audio

Deep zoom for artworks and 3D‑positioned audio for room‑scale immersion.

Immersive Timeline

Meta‑navigation sweeps through decades, weaving artworks, movements, and cultural touchpoints into a living chronology.

Interactive Gallery

Guided tours blend archival media with curatorial commentary so visitors absorb story and context in motion.

Audio-Visual Play

Visitors compose ambient soundscapes while visualisers map rhythm, tone, and motifs across the canvas.
