placing the visitor inside the action


Related Real Estate Hudson Yards Development 

At the Recon Real Estate Trade show event in Las Vegas, Dalin Studio, working with Overland Entertainment in New York City, designs a trade booth that puts the visitor inside the visual experience of Related Real Estate’s soaring Hudson Yards development in Manhattan. From across the show, vistors will be presented with oversized iconic 13 foot high images, then enter a kelidescope of changing architecture from the companies portfolio. With a million dollar budget, the contracted design called for the use of a new projection on glass, touch activated technology. This glass would be supsended in large shafts and layers from a lighting rig. These floating activated panels create a skin, enveloping the interior space. Working with Related Fields, NYC, a newly designed digital content story is accessable from every surface.

Durring the production process the design changed into a more traditional structure, though the initial concept of bringing the architectural power and excitement of Related to the forefront remaind. A more classic booth contains a shell of  large scale light boxes and oversized touch monitors. Oculus technology was also housed within stations in the booth for an even more immersive encounter. The story content is seamlessly ready for an immediate sales experience.

New-York Historical Society and Museum Exhibition
New York City with The New-York Historical Society and Museum, Dalin Studio, as part of an internship program, designs an exhibition presenting the life and concepts of controversial spiritual teacher Gurdjieff. The exhibit is developed as an example of alternative history based programing possible within the museum upon its renovation. Using RFID technology, the visitor is presented a chance to personalizes the experience by selecting a graphic invitation at the entry point. These custom cards activate the story through the lens of the mind, the heart, or the body. The exhibition is conceptually a lecture given at the historical socity in the 1920’s the first time he arrives in the United States, and this is presented throughout the exihitibion by usinghis handwriting as the central wayfinding strategy. Following the white line created by his handwriting and sketches on a black surface, the idea is presented of Gurdjieff as the creator of his very mystyerious and far fetching life story. At points along the procession, submerged screens that match the black walls which activate layers of the exhibit story. Vitrines contain specific artifacts from locations of his travels. Off the main exhibit space are interactive games that share concepts of his teachings. The space also includes a study area and cafe which extend the sensual aspects of Gurdjieffs world.
