DESIGN PROBLEM

Part of a bigger fictitious exhibition about universe in a Science museum, the black hole creator answers to the problematic of making the interstellar scale more approachable to a large audience (families). This installation communicate scientific knowledge about black holes, based on the concept of “exploring through play", and is adapted to people of all ages.

OUR PROJECT

The black hole creator is a project made for museums to explain how stars can turn into black holes. It's a collaborative game where players need to cooperate in order to fulfill all of the conditions required for the creation of this mysterious body: the star needs a huge mass, a high temperature and to able to fuse iron. While they're playing, the participants can see their progress by observing the evolution of the star, displayed in a central hologram: when the game is complete, the star finally turns into a black hole.
