The Jewish Community
An interactive installation installed in a museum tells the history of the Jewish community of Vienna in the Middle-Ages.

Client: Museum Judenplatz (Vienna)
Agency: Nofrontiere (Vienna)
Interaction design and user-experience: Joëlle Bitton and Ulf Harr
Art direction: Ulf Harr
Year: 2000
Languages: German and English
System: Projection on horizontal surface and interaction with the infrared SIVIT system (developed by Siemens)

Concept: the content is gradually displayed on a grid, in four parts (as shown in the following screen captures). As the user goes in-depth, the interface splits itself and uncovers the structure of the information.

Screen captures: stage 1, stage 2, stage 3, stage 4.
