CHICAGO HISTORY MUSEUM — FACES OF FREEDOM INTERACTIVE
(with Group Delphi)
An interactive was created to welcome museum visitors (teens) to a new wing on American history and make them part of the exhibit. The interactive asks visitors to choose action words that can achieve freedom and then the visitor can take their own photo or choose a hero from history. The photo and words are then displayed on large LCD columns at the entrance.
Jodie Marko, is an independent new media-odd media producer working and living in San Francisco.

PEROT MUSEUM OF NATURE & SCIENCE, Dallas, Texas (with Delphi Productions)
This $185m nature and science museum located in Dallas, Texas was designed by Thomas Mayne of Morphosis Architects and opened in December 2012 to critical acclaim.
“This is not science approached through calm reflection or detached reverence. It is not the science of the traditional natural history museum, with its origins in the 19th century. It is the science of the “science center,” our era’s answer to earlier genres.” By Edward Rothstein, The New York Times, December 1, 2012.
“You can stand inside a tent made of high-resolution video screens to tour the planets and then walk through a history of cosmology.... You can wear 3-D glasses while looking at a video of a mountainous scene, and glide through it as a virtual bird, by tilting your arms. You can alter the winds blowing across a virtual ocean’s surface or see how volcanoes accumulate along the boundaries of colliding tectonic plates.”
By Edward Rothstein, The New York Times, Dec. 1, 2012.

ADAPTER REACTOR
This Flash video game predicts future life forms. The game lets visitors transform the environment, and see how a common species might evolve over time in response.
The style is fun, cartoonish, and distinctly not scientific.
The story of the Formation of the Universe from the big bang to the creation of planets is told through a video projected on a mirror dome.
Owen Wilson, a Dallas native, donated his time and voice to this exhibit. Many of the animations in the video are 3D scientific visualizations gathered from various academic
