This project aims to initiate an effort for WPI to design and implement its own campus museum. A university museum should mean more than showing paintings or antiquated artifacts. In this manner this paper includes museum and exhibit ideas for WPI, which we believe would generate awareness and excitement to students, faculty, and visitors through interactive and involved concepts. Additionally, we will design attention-grabbing installations for presentation to the Worcester Art Museum. These exhibit ideas will combine art and technology to add a contemporary edge to the museum, attracting college students in the area. An adjacent goal of this Interactive Qualifying Project is to create an interactive exhibition for placement on the WPI campus.
