Western Australian Museum

Overview
Lightwell developed fourteen digital interactives and video productions across four galleries for the Western Australian Museum Boola Bardip.

As part of the suite of multimedia our team developed ‘Dino Trackways’, a camera-tracking interactive where visitors walk through muddy projected pools and see dinosaur footprints following their movements, periodically washed away by flowing water.

Other touchscreen interactives throughout the galleries include portals filled with floating animated plankton, map interactives, video players, automated car games, and creative design stations where visitors can assemble and decorate their own building, piece of pottery, clothing item, or create a quirky creation from a kit of collection objects. Our team also produced two circular projected touchtables highlighting trade and immigration between Western Australia and the world, a three-screen underwater video piece showcasing colourful corals and sponges, and an animated projection depicting the flow of the Leeuwin Current off the coast of Western Australia.
